Today in Labor History July 31, 1968: Students protested the Olympics in Mexico City. They occupied schools and began a General Strike. Cops violently attacked them. The violence culminated with the Tlatelolco massacre, October 2. As a result, the cops slaughtered 350-400 people, using snipers. They arrested and tortured over 1,300.
Alejandro Jodorowsky dramatized the massacre in his amazing film, “The Holy Mountain” (1973). In it, he showed birds, fruits, vegetables and other things falling and being ripped out of the wounds of the dying students. The late author, Roberto Bolaño, recounted the massacre in his novel “Amulet” (1999). He also retells the story in his novel, “The Savage Detectives.”

BIENVENIDA
Bienvenida a mi dormitorio de témpanos a la deriva
Bienvenida a mis escaleras a mis trucos a mi ternura
Bienvenida bajo este arco - Bienvenida a estos mapas confusos

MUSA
En sus ojos veo los rostros
de todos mis amores perdidos.
Ah, Musa, protégeme,
le digo, en los días terribles
de la aventura incesante.
