Brad Will/((i)) Vive Stencil

A call has been put out to artists across the world to print, cut, and paint this stencil honoring NYC Indymedia journalist Brad Will and the embattled peoples of Oaxaca, Mexico

Will was recently shot and killed by plain clothes police in Oaxaca, while video documenting the ongoing uprising in that city. Several other protesters died too, and Pres. Fox called in the Federales to end the popular occupation of the city center.

Go to NYC Indymedia for full coverage of the ongoing struggles of the peoples of Oaxaca.
