2006 Oaxaca protests
The Mexican state of Oaxaca is currently embroiled in a conflict that has lasted more than six months and has resulted in at least 17 deaths and in the occupation of the capital city of Oaxaca by federal police. The conflict emerged in May 2006 with a strike involving the local teachers' union and has since grown into a broad-based movement pitting the Popular Assembly of the Peoples of Oaxaca (APPO) against the state's governor, Ulises Ruiz Ortiz.
