Nuestro primer problema vino con seguridad, nos negaron la entrada al consulado porque no ten\u00edamos una cita. Aunque los guardias de seguridad se mantienen con nosotros como parte del 99%, nos negaron la entrada dici\u00e9ndonos que el Consul Carlos Sada no se encontraba y que necesit\u00e1bamos tener una cita para hablar con \u00e9l. Les respondinos diciendoles que, \u201cNosotros somos Ocupa Wall Street\u2026 Nosotros no hacemos citas; Nosotros ocupamos.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Nosotras y nosotros estuvimos ah\u00ed para ser una fuerza de solidaridad para la semana (de hecho la segunda semana) solicitado por el Movimiento por Justicia del Barrio para exigir la libertad de Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez y Alberto Patishtan, dos activistas detenidos por el gobierno Mexicano como una forma de represi\u00f3n pol\u00edtica (y no justicia penal).<\/p>\n<p>A trav\u00e9s de la puerta delantera del Consulado hay un punto de control de seguridad. Nuestras intenciones para entregar en la mano nuestra carta de apoyo se dio a conocer a los guardias de seguridad y no se nos permiti\u00f3 entrar al piso principal. Les dijimos a los guardias que est\u00e1bamos all\u00ed para dar un mensaje y esperar\u00edamos por el Consul Carlos Sada con el fin de hacerlo directamente con \u00e9l.  Despu\u00e9s de tanto estancamiento y mentira, los guardias fueron salvados por una llamada en la cual se le dijo que un funcionario consular nos ver\u00eda. No era Sada.<\/p>\n<p>Julieta Dom\u00ednguez, de Asuntos Administrativos, nos recibi\u00f3 en la sala lateral. Ella tomo la carta, escucho nuestras quejas y exigencias con una sonrisa, y dijo que el Sr. Sada recibir\u00e1 nuestra carta y responder\u00eda dentro de una semana. Le explicamos unos cuantos detalles de estos dos presos pol\u00edticos y expresamos nuestra profunda solidaridad  con sus luchas como un pueblo que pelea en una parte de nuestro mundo contra el 1%, a menudo enfrentando encarcelamiento ante las manos violenta del Estado.<\/p>\n<p>Cualquiera que sean las posibilidades de recibir una respuesta dentro de una semana, el pueblo va ganar, y nosotros tenemos m\u00e1s que una semana de paciencia\/persistencia para verlo. <\/p>\n<p>Solidaridad por siempre.  <\/p>\n<p>Miembros de Ocupa Wall Street.<\/p>\n<p>Aqui esta la carta que se entrego:<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Carlos M Sada, C\u00f3nsul General<br \/>\nConsulado General de M\u00e9xico en Nueva York<br \/>\n27 E. 39th Street<br \/>\nNew York, NY 10016<\/p>\n<p>C\u00f3nsul Sada:<\/p>\n<p>Nosotros somos integrantes del Movimiento Ocupa Wall Street en la Ciudad de Nueva York. La raz\u00f3n por la que le escribimos proviene de nuestra profunda preocupaci\u00f3n y coraje por el encarcelamiento injusto que se reparte en M\u00e9xico, pa\u00eds que representan usted y su instalaci\u00f3n, a aquellos que se organizan y luchan para defender sus derechos y lograr que se haga justicia en sus comunidades.<\/p>\n<p>El encarcelaiento arbitrario queda como respuesta de facto de los funcionarios gubernamentales en M\u00e9xico hac\u00eda la protesta social organizada que se est\u00e1 dando en muchas comunidades por todo el pa\u00eds. Los gobiernos local, estatal, y federal en M\u00e9xico siguen encerrando con facilidad alarmante a personas que expresan su desacuerdo organizandose pacificamente para hacer cambios positivos en la sociedad. Tales son los casos gem\u00e9los de nuestros hermanos Alberto Patisht\u00e1n G\u00f3mez y Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez, los dos ind\u00edgenas, encarcelados injustamente.<\/p>\n<p>Sabemos con certeza que ellos son inocentes de los crimenes que se les acusa, porque su inocencia ha sido ampliamente documentada por centros de derechos humanos y con testigos de sus comunidades respectivas.<\/p>\n<p>Alberto Patisht\u00e1n est\u00e1 injustamente encarcelado desde el a\u00f1o 2000. \u00c9l ha seguido su camino de dignidad, paz, y justicia en la prisi\u00f3n organizando con muchos otros presos pol\u00edticos para obtener su libertad. Como consecuencia, fue trasladado al sitio actual, en Guasave, Sinaloa, como castigo por su participaci\u00f3n en la huelga de hambre que se di\u00f3 en su estado natal de Chiapas en 2011. Muchas personas de alrededor del mundo ya ven a Alberto Patisht\u00e1n como un luchador de renombre. Debido a sus esfuerzos y su ganada prominencia, el Estado Mexicano lo ha castigado de manera aguda. <\/p>\n<p>Francisco L\u00f3pez S\u00e1ntiz Lopez, detenido injustamente desde diciembre del 2011, ha cometido el \u201cdelito\u201d de ser base de apoyo del EZLN. Para nosotros, observando desde el extranjero, las acusaciones falsas y las irregularidades jur\u00eddicas bastan para apoyar esta verdad muy obvia&#8211;sin incluir el hecho de que Francisco ni siquiera estuvo en el sitio donde el incidente se di\u00f3.<\/p>\n<p>Muchas de nuestras colegas de los Movimientos Ocupa, al nivel nacional e internacional, hemos visto como funciona la represi\u00f3n en contra de nuestros esfuerzos y causas. Hemos visto la respuesta del 1% y como utiliza a la polic\u00eda para llevar a cabo su coacci\u00f3n y control social como formas de callar al desacuerdo popular.<\/p>\n<p>Creemos nosotros que el desacuerdo, la acci\u00f3n social, y la libertad a unir a la gente para lograr un bien com\u00fan son elementos fundamentales y derechos que conlleva cualquier democracia. Por tanto cualquier intento a negarle al pueblo \u00e9stos y otros derechos constituye un ataque contra la justicia y la democracia. <\/p>\n<p>Por estas razones, juntos con nuestras hermanas y hermanos de M\u00e9xico y de otros pa\u00edses del mundo, exigimos la liberaci\u00f3n inmediata e incondicional a Alberto Patisht\u00e1n y Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez. Manifestamos nuestra solidaridad m\u00e1s firme.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Que sean como resultados ganados de estos hero\u00e9s la democracia, justicia, y libertad! <\/p>\n<p>Atentamente,<\/p>\n<p>Integrantes de Ocupa Wall Street<br \/>\nLa Ciudad de Nueva York<!--:--><!--:en-->On Tuesday June 12, members of Occupy Wall Street organized a protest and stormed the Mexican Consulate in New York to demand the release of Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez and Alberto Patishtan. Here is a quick chronicle of the action:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"occupywallst\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-6312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst-350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/radiozapatista.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/occupywallst-800x600.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>During our protest, members of Occupy Wall Street tried to enter the Mexican Consulate. Our first problem was with security, when we were refused entrance to the Consulate because we did not have an appointment. The security guards refused to let us inside, telling us that the Consul Carlos Sada was not there and that we would need an appointment to speak to him.  We responded by telling them, \u201c We are Occupy Wall Street\u2026 We don\u2019t make appointments; We occupy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We were there to be a strength of solidarity to the week (indeed the second week) called for by Movimiento por Justicia del Barrio to demand the release of Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez and Alberto Patishtan, two activists being held by the Mexican government as a matter of political repression (and not criminal justice).<\/p>\n<p>Through the front door of the Consulate is a security checkpoint.  Our intentions to hand-deliver our letter of support got known by the security officers and we were not allowed onto the main floor.  We told the officer that we were there send a message and would wait for Carlos Sada in order to do so to him directly.  After a lot of stalling and lying, the officer was saved by a call on his phone that a Consular official would see us.  It was not Sada.<\/p>\n<p>Julieta Dominguez, of Administrative Affairs, received us in a side room.  She took the letter, bore our complaints and demands with a smile, and said that Mr. Sada would get the letter and would reply within a week.<\/p>\n<p>When we asked if she was familiar with the cases of S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez and Patishtan she responded that she was not. We explained some of the details of the cases of these two political prisoners and expressed our deep solidarity with their struggle as people who fight in our part of the world against the 1%, often facing false imprisonment at the hands of a violent State.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the chances of our getting a reply within the week, the People will win, and we have more than a week\u2019s worth of patience\/persistence to see to that. <\/p>\n<p>Solidarity Forever. <\/p>\n<p>Occupy Wall Street.<\/p>\n<p>Below is the letter that we delivered:<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Dear Consul:<\/p>\n<p>We are members of the Occupy Wall St. movement in New York City. We write to you with deep concern and anger due to the unjust imprisonment that is meted out against those in Mexico, the country you and your facility represent, who organize to defend their rights and to obtain justice for their communities.<\/p>\n<p>Unjust imprisonment remains the de facto response of government officials in Mexico towards organized social protest taking place in many communities throughout the country. Local, state, and federal governments in Mexico continue with alarming ease and in a profoundly anti-democracy manner to lock away individuals who voice their discontent and organize in peaceful ways to make positive social change. Such are the twin cases of our brothers Alberto Patisht\u00e1n G\u00f3mez and Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez&#8211;both of whom are indigenous and serving unjust sentences.<\/p>\n<p>We know with certainty that they are not guilty of the crimes of which they have been accused, because their innocence has been amply documented by human rights centers and with witnesses from their respective communities.<\/p>\n<p>Alberto Patishtan has been unjustly imprisoned since 2000. While in prison, he has continued his path of peace, dignity, and justice by organizing many other political prisoners to attain their freedom. Consequently, he was transferred to his current location, in Guasave, Sinaloa, as punishment for his participation in the latest hunger strike that occurred in Chiapas, his home state, in 2011. Many people from around the world now view Alberto Pastishtan as a distinguished social justice figure. Due to his efforts and earned prominence, the Mexican State has punished him acutely. <\/p>\n<p>Francisco L\u00f3pez S\u00e1ntiz Lopez, unjustly imprisoned since December 2011, has committed the \u201ccrime\u201d of being a Zapatista support base member. To those of us of the international community, the false accusations and juridical irregularities are enough to support this very obvious truth, let alone the fact that Francisco was not even at the scene of the crime when the unfortunate incident took place.<\/p>\n<p>Many of our fellow members of the Occupy Movements, nationally and internationally, have seen how repression works against our efforts and causes. We have seen the response of the 1% and how they utilize the police to carry out social coercion and control as a means of silencing dissent. <\/p>\n<p>We believe that dissent, social action, and the freedom to peacefully unite people for a common cause are fundamental elements and rights inherent to any democracy. Any attempts to deny the people these and other rights are attacks against democracy and justice.<\/p>\n<p>For these reasons, alongside our sisters and brothers in Mexico and in other countries around the world, we issue our demand for the immediate and unconditional release of Alberto Patisht\u00e1n and Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez. We stand in firm solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>May democracy, justice, and freedom be the earned outcome of these heroes. <\/p>\n<p>Sincerely, <\/p>\n<p>Members of Occupy Wall St.<!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El martes 12 de junio, miembros de Ocupa Wall Street organizaron una manifestacion y irrumpieron el Consulado Mexicano en Nueva York para demandar la liberaci\u00f3n de Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez y Alberto Patishtan.
