It has been one year since 43 normalistas (student teachers) from the Escuela Normal Rural Raúl Isidro Burgos in Ayotzinapa, Guerrero were disappeared and several of their fellow students were murdered.
They are still missing and the truth of what happened that horrifying night has yet to be revealed. The question remains, What happened to the 43 Ayotzinapa students?
Cristian Tomás Colón Garnica of Tlacolula de Matamoros, Oaxaca; his 42 fellow students; 215 other Oaxaqueños, and 26,000+ other Mexicans missing since 2006, are not forgotten by their families, their friends, the people of Mexico, and the world.
We don’t have weapons sir! Why are you aiming at us?

And so, Mexico Marks One Year Since Disappearance of Students…
Such a sad situation……. is there really a possibility that the kids are still alive somewhere?
Will the government keep searching for them…… and will the people behind it be brought to trial?
This is important. Thank you.
NOT and never will be forgotten;
