Oaxaca Burning
Oct. 30, 2006 - Oaxaca, Mexico - Federal police tear down protest blockades and push striking teachers out of the main square that has served as their home base for five months. The federal governmentÕs decision to send forces into Oaxaca came after teachers agreed to return to work by Monday, ending a strike that kept 1.3 million children out of classes across the southern state.
