Los Desaparecidos de Ayotzinapa

On September 26th of 2014, 43 male students from the Raúl Isidro Burgo Rural Teachers' College of Ayotzinapa went missing in Iguala, Guerrero, MX. The students were protesting against discriminatory hiring and funding practices from the government at a conference that was being hosted by the mayor's wife. Eyewitnesses state that the Students were forced into vans by the police after a clash. One of the Students was confirmed dead in December of 2014. The whereabouts of the remaining 42 Students still remains unknown.   

In November, Yanely Rivas approached me with the idea of holding a fundraiser for the Families of the Students. We learned to block print in less than a day.

Each block print we made is a face of a missing student. 

We printed on paper and apparel

and targeted social justice and community events.

 After 6 months, we have sent over $1000 to the parents of the missing students.
