Exhibition Remembers the Dead
Even today there is no definitive count of how many pro-democracy demonstrators were slaughtered by Mexican army troops in the Tlatelolco zone of this capital on Oct. 2, 1968. Was the death toll a few dozen, as the government claimed? Or closer to 300, as some intrepid journalists reported? Did President Gustavo Díaz Ordaz approve the attack? No one knows for sure.
But finally, after decades of government stonewalling, Mexicans searching for answers to these questions have some place to turn: the new Centro Cultural Universitario Tlatelolco, a cultural center dedicated to exploring the massacre, its violent antecedents and its brutal aftermath.
To accompany a Los Angeles Times story about the exhibition in Tlatelolco, MexicoReporter.com produced this video – please click here.
Great piece, Mexico Reporter!
This is especially timely as civil liberties in Mexico seem to be taking a beating as the military is being deployed domestically and the U.S. Congress is considering – to much uproar – the expansion of the ‘drug war’ called Plan Mexico. This would provide the corrupt and brutal Mexican ‘security’ forces $1.4 billion in surveillance capabilities, helicopters, planes and other lethal ‘aid’.
Will this be used against activists standing against the continuation of NAFTA? Or against journalists? Who killed Brad Will:

And why have they not been held accountable?
Thx for all your great work.

As much as I am not a fan of MM & TT and would be thrilled to see both of them shown the door at the end of the season.Really JJ, Really?? Favre??? Bringing back Favre for two years is the worst thing that could be done for Rodgers. Rodgers is a very good QB who is (in my eyes) on the verge of greatness. Yes, he needs to use his checkdowns more effectively and throw the ball away when nothing is there.Rodgers is well aware of these things and brining in anybody at this time to compete with him would either destroy his confidence or piss him off and make him not want to be a Packer. There are plenty of teams who would love to have him as their QB.As far as suggesting Favre, thats just not an intelligent idea on so many levels I dont even know where to begin. Rodgers will be just fine. Hes not Alex Smith, David Carr, or Tim Couch. He needs a competent OL around him and needs to go through his progressions and get rid of the ball quicker. I think he will a top tier QB and go to many Probowls during his career. Report this comment Reply packer_bob says: November 12, 2009 at 10:25 pm Roy,
