Ainda Estou Aqui [I'm Still Here] (Walter Salles, 2024)
on saturday the mayor of Uruapan in Mexico was shot and killed in cold blood during a night All Saints day celebration. Uruapan is in the state of Michoacán, one of the most dangerous in Mexico. He was an independent who campaigned on being tough on crime after decades of political parties failing to provide security or even basic human rights to the citizens of Michoacán. independent candidacies in Mexico are incredibly difficult to attain and to campaign for. Recently he had demanded aid from the central government to help fight criminal gangs in his hometown. The president even slighted him and mocked him on her morning press conference, saying that returning to the war on drugs was never going to happen.
Criminal organizations don't even deal in drugs anymore. It is speculated that the main source of their income is firearm, fuel and human trafficking, as wel as control of agricultural produce (your avocadoes likely come from Michoacán, where it has been known for years that cartels force people to grow avocadoes in places like public schools and privately owned land).
While the presidentess of Mexico boasts a reduced rate in homicides this has been attained by skewing the numbers by separating homicide from feminicide (the killing of women supposedly for gender related reasons) and from forced removals (people being lifted or recruited for sketchy jobs and being forced to labour for the cartels)
In march of this year a site was raided by government authorities after civillian-led collectives kept pressuring them to look the place up. An official number was never officially stated but shoes, bags, journals and other personal items were found as well as evidence of methods to get rid of human remains were found, sparking (not enough in my opinion) outrage. Many other such sites have been identified by the civilian led groups.
These groups call themselves searching mothers, since they were formed by mothers of missing men under the premise that a person can't simply disappear, some evidence must remain somewhere of the existence of that person. These are people who literally have nothing to lose or fear since they live with the angst of having a loved one vanish from their lives without a trace. The number of missing persons is said to be in the hundreds of thousands.
High members of the Mexico City government were murdered outside of their home in June. This past month alone around 15 leaders of the agricultural sector who were denouncing the extorsion from government and cartels have been executed.
A 60 year old woman who went viral got her throat cut on video by the local cartel for not paying her fee.
While the federal government of Mexico lauds itself as being the most feminist, the most egalitarian, bringing supposed historical justice to marginalised groups; the reality is we live under unbearable oppression. And it has nothing to do with race, gender or sexual orientation.
Memory,Truth and Justice - The last dictatorship in Argentina, The horrors happening in your back yard
Memory,Truth and Justice- The last dictatorship in Argentina, The horrors happening in your “Back Yard” Written by Jerico Lazaro Gomez. IND
Today 24th of March, we are standing at 50 years of the last Dictatorship in Argentina,pushed by the USA during the cold war. This intervention brought chaos,death and torture to a country that was starting to grow. Kidnapping millions of babies,killing countless families and friends, and burying Argentina and almost killing it.
This is a small essay,with pictures,sources and a few videos, to educate non-Argentines about this very important part of history, to warn you that what happened here could happen to you, and what to look out for. It's written by an Amateur film student,but I did put my heart into it.
Even if you dont read it, please share it.
This is my small act of protest and activism,not letting this be forgotten or twisted. Memoria,verdad y justicia. Que esto no vuelva a pasar nunca mas.

“La repercusión de la serie generó más consultas en los últimos días y seguramente se irán sucediendo más en los próximos. Cualquier hecho cultural con masividad tan bien logrado y tan nuestro como la serie es para nosotros una enorme posibilidad para difundir la búsqueda”, aseguró a EFE Manuel Gonçalves Granada, nieto restituido y secretario de Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo.
La campaña, que se ha viralizado en redes sociales bajo el lema "¿Estás mirando El Eternauta?", invita a quienes nacieron entre noviembre de 1976 y enero de 1978 -posibles fechas de nacimiento de los nietos del autor- y tienen dudas sobre su identidad a ponerse en contacto con Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo.
