Emergency 48 hour Teach-in and Planton
Mexican Consulate of the PRI
1549 India Street in downtown San Diego

48 hour TEACH-IN begins midnight, Sunday, August 22, 1999.

Help make a strong local response to the escalating military and
paramilitary attacks against the indigenous Maya communities of Chiapas,
MEXICO.  Bring candles and creativity; songs and sleeping bags; strong
hearts, powerful drums, and most importantly bring the courage of your
convictions!

Contribute what you can - stay for 5 minutes or until the end.  Share what
you know; learn what others have discovered!  Phone, FAX, email, and invite
everyone you can.

You may also bring financial donations to "SOS for Chiapas - San Diego"
which will be used in coordination with Mexican actress Ofelia Media's
efforts.  Ms. Medina is currently in the jungle villages of CHIAPAS with
the indigenous.  The SOS account is in the name of Lilia Anaya, 6106865679
of the bank Bital.  Donations will buy necessities for the communities
under attack!  Subcommander Marcos reported on Sunday that the village of
La Realidad, now cut off by paramilitarites, was experiencing an "intense
land and air military mobilization" and the Zapatista leadership
anticipates a full attack.

The PRI Consulate opens at 8am; first press statement is scheduled for 10am
Monday, August 23, 1999.
