To mark the start of the longest strike in the history of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (April 1999-February 2000), in which prevented the imposition of semiannual study at this university, on 20 April held at least two gears at the same time and with a similar convening power that led to the division of people: some attended the Park up to the rectory and other bulb the Angel of the Zocalo. This decision to hold two marches generated some disappointment in attending the Angel-socket motion. There were many contingents few organized schools and colleges with a presence, such as CCH Acatlán and the East, however, there were quotas CLETA by the OPC, Atenco and Mexico Tramway Alliance, among others. was noticeable then the absence of the students who participated directly in the movement. In contrast, most of the attendees were young people under 25, which, of course, does not detract from their participation. Not stressed very much for your presence, but walked around the Cat, La Pita, the Devil and some members more or less representative of the CGH, who certainly did not take the microphone at the rally after the march arrived at the Zocalo.
Attendance at this way, such as full throttle is just a symbol, does not guarantee anything. The response from students, alumni, alumni, teachers, etc., Left much to be desired. Why not make this kind of demonstration weekend to get further assistance? May respond that this is no longer for traffic and not in the news. It is a paradox worth discussing: the repudiation of the media and want to leave them.
