The Blue Nightmare

Check out this new 19 minute video from Mal de Ojo TV, "The Blue Nightmare."

After police repression against the people of Oaxaca and APPO (People’ s Popular Assembly of Oaxaca) on November 25, more than 200 people were unjustly and illegally taken to various jails, suffering beatings and rape.

"The Blue Nightmare" contains testimony of some of the people that were detained.

These horrifying testimonies and the multitude of other examples of brutality by the local, state and federal forces in attempting (but still failing) to crush the popular movement in Oaxaca, truly help paint of portrait of what colleague George Salzman has appropriately labeled "the face of  Mexican fascism."
