OPEN LETTER TO MARÍA EUGENIA CAMPOS GALVÁN, GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF CHIHUAHUA

“We are not weird, we are outraged”.

Chihuahua, Chih., March 22, 2022

Madam Governor:

Every single person who has signed this letter has a disappeared person in their family. Some of us were part of the committee that undertook last weekend’s journey called “Walking Until We Find Them”, which we decided to organize because our request to meet with the authorities has been ignored.

We are deeply outraged by your statements that “the marches for disappeared individuals were weird.” So we seem weird to you…? The mothers, the wives, the daughters, the fathers, the sons, siblings who walked for four days, with the pictures of our loved ones pinned to our chests, under the sun, braving wind and dust, on the hot asphalt of road, our hearts and throats being shredded in our legitimate cry for justice.

We are not weird, Madam. We are outraged by the indifference, impunity and injustice; this is how we love our own: without limits, without giving up the hope of finding them again, and with the absolute clarity, that the search and investigation is a responsibility of the State, that your government is not fulfilling.

We remind you that you swore to uphold the Constitution, so you are required to guarantee human rights for all.

Madam, we have no price, nor do we respond to political interests and for you to suggest so is a real insult. We demand a governor who guarantees rights and doesn’t disqualify the victims she is failing to serve.

The pain of uncertainty, the frustration of injustice and the helplessness of the refusal by the authorities to meet with us, deserves a response that focuses on that and not one that reduces everything to one of the people present.

Don’t think it “weird” if we take to the streets again if we continue to be ignored, because before and after you (although you think it’s all about you) we have demanded and will demand that the disappeared be found alive and that the guilty be punished… and what would be weird would be doing otherwise.
