Abducted off the street, blindfolded and beaten, he was brought to a Mexican military facility and "disappeared." Tzompaxtle, a young indigenous man and member of an insurgent guerrilla movement, was subjected to months of interrogation and torture as the military tried to extract information from him. In an effort to buy time to protect his family and comrades, and to keep himself alive, he lead his captors on fruitless journeys to abandoned safe-houses and false rendezvous locations for four months. Finally, faced with imminent execution, he decided to make what he thought was a suicidal attempt at escape; when he miraculously survived, he was able to return underground. Gleaned from years of clandestine interviews, Tzompaxtle's story offers a rare glimpse into chronic injustice, underground resistance movements, and the practice of forced disappearance and torture in contemporary Mexico" -- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 251-260). 505 0 $a The journalists -- The news reports -- They tear you from the world -- The silences -- The interview -- A piece of being -- Writing and violence -- The social worker and the lawyer -- An incredible escape -- The brothers -- Tzompaxtle and Nube -- The disappeared. 600 10 $a Tzompaxtle Tecpile, AndreÌs $v Interviews. 610 20 $a EjeÌrcito Popular Revolucionario (Mexico) 651 0 $a Guerrero (Mexico : State) $x Underground movements. 650 0 $a Disappeared persons $z Mexico $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Victims of state-sponsored terrorism $z Mexico $v Interviews. 655 7 $a Interviews. $2 lcgft 941 $a 6 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409031945.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017012141.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518022812.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20181106013103.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006121601.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20180919010035.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=47C92B1ABBD111E8966E672C97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
