Every year, Mexico's leading university, UNAM , sets up a series of ofrendas to commemorate the Day of the Dead. Each year, UNAM students and volunteers build altars to commemorate and remember artists , intellectuals , revolutionaries , and activists . For example, last year, the ofrenda was created in memory of the students who were massacred by the Mexican government on October 2, 1968 .
This year, the UNAM has announced that its monumental altar will honor Emiliano Zapata , a Mexican revolutionary , to remember him 100 years after this death.
Zapata
, one of Mexico's most respected revolutionaries and a champion of agrarianism , who fought in the Mexican Revolution . Zapata , along with other revolutionary leaders , signed the Plan of Ayala , which proposed returning stolen land to farmers and compensations. Zapata went on to create an agrarian commission to distribute the land and established a rural bank . For Zapata, the equal distribution of land among farmers was his main goal and adopted the slogan “ Tierra y Libertad ” (“ Land and Liberty ”).
If you want to be part of the project and create an altar , you can find more information here .
The ofrendas will be available from November 1 to 3 at the Santo Domingo square, from 10 AM to 9 PM.
