Memory
32 years building, seeking truth and seeking justice.
Every Mother began her personal history from the disappearance of his son. We institutionalize the April 30, 1977, when fourteen women at the initiative of Azucena Villaflor went to the Plaza de Mayo to disclose the "absence" of their children. We did not mind the political color, our religious beliefs or social class to which we belonged. We marched together in the tear from the pain of his absent son. Our kids were gone live, should be presented with life.
We identify with a white handkerchief, which then carried the names of our children, rescuing them from obscurity. We also take the Plaza de Mayo and we did ours.
Over time we wake up to a tragic reality that led us to be witnesses to the company what had happened. The pain became a struggle and active resistance struggle. We imposed the obligation to tell the "real story." Appeared unusual words: burglary, kidnapping, illegal sites, torture, death. We had to work for the Memory, Truth and Justice.
