Every March 24 I hear at a table, in a meeting with people close to me, some comment that expresses a certain boredom about the slogan that this date proposes: to remember,” said Florencia de la V by way of introduction.

On the other hand, the famous remarked: “There is obviously a very marked association for some between this commemoration and an alleged party, political affiliation. It seems to me that many believe that insisting on the importance of this national day is directly related to how much of a Kirchner/Christian/Peronist (whichever -ist they prefer) one is. Nothing further than I think (sic)”.

“For me the exercise of remembering is essential, regardless of any co-religionist closeness. Why is this practice important? Well, because that permanent mention, that reflection and that review is what allows them to begin to add to what is called ‘collective memory’, “he recalled.

Conclusion

The memory, stories of the mothers and especially of the kidnapped people, among whom were several transvestites who are now plaintiffs in a trial against humanity. They exposed an illicit association structure in order to exterminate everything that they considered dangerous (sic)”.
