First message: What do you have to do? § The basic idea is to gather 43 prominent researchers to share with the audience your feelings and thoughts about this tragedy. The thoughts, reflections and feelings you have had since September 2014 to May 2015. Your talk should be no more than 1. 30 minute. Such special session will be 1 hour and 20 minutes long as usual. § Second, if you are available I will send you some guidelines. I will introduce the session, giving a brief explanation and then each one of you will talk maximum 1. 30 minutes. All of us will hold a paper with a number (1, 2, 3… 43) to represent the students (maybe photos of them, not sure). Every one of us will talk about our personal feelings and thoughts regarding such event. We will reflect about what we got as human beings concerning such crime. Since September 2014 to May 2015 surely we will read and hear more about Ayotzinapa.

Second message: § I recommend you to write something about your feelings and thoughts on Ayotzinapa, México until now. § Please create a folder with the photos, news, videos or whatever other material related to this process that have called your attention. § Making sense of what is going on could be interesting to define the scope of your feelings and thoughts. § With what we have written and analyzed it could be possible to document a large process of “creative subversion”. We can think on prepare a documentary, or a book or other stuff.
