Impact of Ayotzinapa Case Closure on Mexico and Digital Protest Influence

The closure of the Ayotzinapa case has spurred widespread debate in Mexico and Latin America, with youth spearheading a digital protest campaign through Twitter to underscore their concerns.

  • During a press conference at Centro Pro, one mother demanded that those responsible should not go unpunished: “Let’s stop killing our children.”
  • “#EPNNoTeHagasMenso” became the exigence by this very demanding woman. This Tweet quickly went viral and evolved into a national Twitter trending topic.
  • Soon, #EPNNoTeHagasMuso gained momentum as it was shared across thousands of protest messages on social media platforms articulating dissatisfaction with the closure in absentia for 43 disappeared students – victims of enforced disappearance from Iguala.
  • The trend also transcended national borders becoming a global topic, reflecting anger and opposition towards an individual who has shown disdain toward youth since his first day as the de facto head of state in Mexico: “#EPNNoTeHagasMuso” is now used against this man.
  • “#DemandNotKillingOurChildren,” translated to Spanish, became a Twitter trending topic across several countries on February 25th. It represented the collective outcry of millions in Mexico and beyond who are advocating for justice over fear tactics deployed against them.
