Caravana 43 on Marin TV

Caravana 43 is a project developed with the purpose of bringing to the United States parents and classmates of the 43 Normalista students who disappeared in Iguala, Guerrero, Mexico on September 26, 2014. Three Caravanas will visit more than 40 cities from the US/Mexico border along the Pacific, Central, and Atlantic region states. Their main purpose is to provide an international forum for the parents who have lost their children to a government of systemic violence and impunity.

Marin TV was honored to cover several of the Caravana 43 Bay Area events and to host a conversation with two parents from Ayotzinapa, one sibling, and one surviving student of the 43 who vanished.

In a show of solidarity with other US cities such as Pomona, Austin, and San Francisco, the town of Fairfax and the Marin County Board of Supervisors passed resolutions in support of a full investigation into the disappearance.
