Piñera and the politicization of the Haitian University



- How Your politicization began as a student at UNAM?

Well, no. I was not in the UNAM, but in a university, and the problem we had then is that there were two proposals for what should be the student, if he was a young man in an education process, or a process deformation, according to the needs of a society. That meant some guidance curricula, counseling or other curricula. Finally the problem was "after college, what?". Yes, work, but work to do, what society, at what cost, at what social cost to what individual cost of the individual. Finally, we studied and we formed not to know and work on what we wanted, but on what society and the power required us to leave. To that extent was more profitable careers, which will ensure a future much more solid, secure, very successful, and other races that were considered as useless by the power. And that is, then, that was all curricula. Either way, the university became a large corral of domestication of the young, and at the same time and a place where young people refused to be tamed, and had a lot of rebellion and organization. Actually, the young students react quickly as rebels, and the danger that we saw then was that these movements of rebellion were isolated, they thought that only in your university, your school, it was this process of domination and not open to dialogue or make contact with other social groups that were experiencing the same thing. And usually the problem with the student movement was this: they had the horizon of the classroom. That could be a rebel in the classroom, and conformist in the family, for example, or in foreign policy. Lacked the continuity or the student movement that contact with other parties. But it was not really very difficult for us to understand, we the students of that time that something was rotten and had to change. The problem is we did not know how we did not know how much power we had set the quota of sacrifice to us but also the rest of society. It took many years, many hits, we had to get here, the mountains of southeastern Mexico and the location indigenous to understand the injustice that we lived was also an injustice to the Indians, for farmers to workers , for teachers. To everyone ..
