    The Tlatelolco’s night

    This no-fiction story by Elena Poniatowska related the true facts that
    the ex-president Gustavo Díaz Ordaz hid by many years. Also, there
    are many testimonies telling their experiences on October 2, 1968.

    Facts about a student’s massacre on our country were hidden for


    politic benefits. So, the author describes how the students started to
    rising up against the suppression and repression at schools. They
    decided to express disapproval and the government didn’t accept it.

    What I disagreed the most is that these young people suffered


    consequences with no reason from the authorities. Nowadays, we can
    talk with more liberty but there is some obstacles.

    I’d recommend it to adults only because there are some graphics


    pictures into the book that the periodist took at the real time of the
    trouble.
