In Mexico, hundreds of students took to the streets of Guadalajara to protest the kidnapping and murder of three university students, who went missing five weeks ago while they were filming a school project.
Sandra Loewe: “I am here from the CUEC school, the cinema school of the UNAM. We are here to represent and to give the voice to all the women, men and child that are being disappeared in Mexico, because we are living a necropolitics that is doing a very big harm to this country.”
Mexican authorities are claiming the three students were kidnapped by a cartel and tortured before their bodies were dissolved in acid. Authorities have not yet presented sufficient evidence to support this claim. The details of previous Mexican government accounts about student disappearances, including the 43 students who are missing from the Ayotzinapa teachers’ college, have been subsequently disproven.
