During the night and early morning of September 26 and 27, 2014, coordinated attacks in at least three locations in the city of Iguala, Guerrero, resulted in the death and disappearance of dozens of people, most of them students of the Raúl Isidro Burgos Rural Normal School in Ayotzinapa. An oral history of infamy tells of these facts that marked a before and after in Mexico through a choral account composed of the voices of survivors, witnesses and family members. In the midst of horror and outrage, voices attest to the chasm in which we find ourselves and which has in the so-called "war on drugs" one of its epicentres, but they also weave a powerful cloak that rescues the power of collective struggle and the undeniable dignity of the fathers and mothers of the missing boys in the face of a voracious and predatory political and economic system.
