Mr. Sedillo is a community organizer and human rights advocate based in Oaxaca, Mexico.
He investigates and documents popular struggles for justice against economic hardship
and political repression in Mexico, recently with a focus on their connections to
the U.S. War on Drugs and the cross-border flow of illegal arms. Sedillo travels widely
in the U.S., facilitating workshops, giving lectures, and screening his own documentary
films at universities and community centers. He has contributed to a growing archive
of community based investigative research on the effects of free trade agreements
and militarism on indigenous and immigrant communities. Presented by The Manhattan
Alliance for Peace and Justice and Students for Environmental Action.
