Asamblea de Artista Revolucionarios de Oaxaca (ASARO) - Defendamos Lo Que Es Nuestro. Petróleo

Title: Defendamos Lo Que Es Nuestro. Petróleo
Description: Oaxaca: ASARO, ca. 2006. Woodcut on gray paper. 38 x 19.5 inches sheet size. With drystamp of ASARO. Best known by their Spanish-language acronym ASARO, the amorphous collective of artists was forged in the crucible of social and political unrest of Oaxaca, the biggest and one of the poorest, cities of the eponymous state, located in the south of Mexico, at the foothills of the Sierra Madre’s southern end. In May 2006, the massive annual teachers’ strike held in Oaxaca City’s zocalo, or central plaza, was met with unprecedented aggression and arrests. In June, an ad hoc coalition of over 300 hundred organizations joined forces with the striking teachers, calling themselves the Asamblea Popular del Pueblo de Oaxaca (Popular Assembly of the Peoples of Oaxaca) or APPO. .
