[Marxism] Cynthia McKinney's Earth Day talk

[dave.walters@xxxxxxxxxxx]

[Cynthia's talk at California State University, Northridge was inspired in 
large 
part by events that took place during and shortly after her trip Mexico 
City--David W.]

Cynthia McKinney's Earth Day talk:

"And yet, as we speak, the Mexican Senate Chamber has been occupied.
The massive rally held today has probably just ended, and some of the
opposition Members of the Mexican Congress are inside the building on
the dais and have announced a hunger strike. Days ago, one of the
leading papers in Mexico City had a photo of the Chamber of Deputies
of the Mexican Congress with an unfurled banner covering the
Speaker's Rostrum, proclaiming the Chamber "Closed." The banner was
hung by elected Members of the Mexican Congress who constitute the
Frente Amplio Progresista that has dared to draw a line in the sand
against U.S.-inspired legislation just introduced to allow foreign
corporate ownership of PEMEX, Mexico's state-owned oil company."
