Pasta De Conchos - 18 Years After The Tragedy In Mexico
Dona Fili, an activist and defender of land and water, is placing flowers on a fence as she accompanies the organization Familia Pasta de Conchos. They are participating in a mass at the Antimonumento 65+ A una voz, rescate ya! in Mexico City, expressing their rejection of Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's failure to fulfill his promise to rescue the bodies of 65 miners who died in the Pasta de Conchos mine collapse in Coahuila on February 19, 2006, with 63 of them still remaining buried.
