To Tegucigalpa
Late tonight a fact-finding delegation will fly from New York to Tegucigalpa, Honduras, to observe, gather evidence and learn about the critical situation there, three months after a military coup ousted the elected president. I would support this mission regardless, but my lover Teresa Gutierrez is one of its members, so I have a personal stake in, a deep personal concern about, its safety. Do me, and, more important, the Honduran resistance, a favor. Go here for information on how to show solidarity with the delegation.
