Workers’ struggles and successes from around the globe, from this month's New Internationalist magazine.
Throughout Mexico, teachers face repression for speaking up for their labour rights and the rights of their students to a good education. On 26 September 2014, 43 students from Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers’ College disappeared following a protest relating to the 1968 Tlatelolco massacre, when the Mexican state killed hundreds of students in Mexico City.
Nearly 50 years after Tlatelolco, the era’s authoritarian legacy remains.
