Important Update from the
Mexico Nonviolence Movement

Picture
Pietro Ameglio, our program partner in the Mexico Nonviolence program sent us this update on the nonviolent struggle to end the drug wars in Mexico. He also let us know about an US outreach tour from August-September 2012 (details below). Thanks to Phil McManus for translating Pietro's letter and providing explanations [in brackets].)

Cuernavaca, May 26, 2012

Dear IF friends,

I remember well the delicious dinner we shared a year ago and also how we tried to understand better what was happening with the violence in Mexico. For me it was very gratifying and also surprising to find the interest and fraternity that you showed me, especially because I was asked to give my little talk in English, something unheard of for me. I was also inspired by the name of the group, “IF," which leaves open a door of hope that many might live a more fully human life, and not just those of us who are among the privileged of this system.

Along with this message I am sending some photos about what most preoccupies me in the current situation in Mexico and where I am focusing part of my efforts and what had me so busy the week of the dinner. I am referring to the more than 10,000 people
who have been disappeared in Mexico since 2007, together with the almost 60,000 dead and hundreds of thousands of people displaced by the violence.
