Jeson Aviles - In NYC, Relatives, Activists Rally On Third Anniversary of 43 Missing Mexican Students

With the recent tragic events of the earthquakes, relatives and activists of Mexico and the United States have not concluded their search for the 43 missing students declared dead by the government. It is the 3rd anniversary since their disappearance today (having occurred on September 26 of 2014). Families and support marched the streets of New York, as well as in Mexico, in protest of the possible lies given to them about their children.
September 26, 2014, marked the night where police armed with automatic weapons surrounded 3 buses of students from the Ayotzinapa Teachers' College, commandeered for a protest. These unarmed students were shot at, then running through streets of Iguala, in search of escape from the bullets searching for them. 6 people had been shot dead, the youngest victim of 15 years old; then the 43 student teachers and others went missing. The Mexican government declared them all dead, supposedly murdered when they were handed over by the police, on orders, to Guerreros Unidos, a drug gang, who apparently burned their bodies in a garbage dump. An forensic report by forensic scientists showed evidence that opposed the official report of the incident - suspects had been tortured illegally in order to weave out testimonies to support the lies.

The Latino people are experiencing incredible amounts of pain, loss, and fear within these past few months. This article was written on September 26, 2017, at 9:31 AM ET, by Arturo Conde. Please reach out in any supportive way to affected families, loved ones, and friends. Please obtain methods and act to donate and support - and speak up against the systems that suppress the truth.

  1. It's truly is sad how people would rather believe in a lie because it easier to do so than to believe the truth. The recent events this post talks about is a Rome example of that.
