El Mexico Que Se Levanta
En 2017, un sismo golpeó de nuevo a Mexico. Y de nuevo, Mexico y los Mexicanxs se levantaron.
Un saludo a los rescatistas que entraron a edificios derrumbados, excavando entre los escombros para rescatar vidas. Son un orgullo Mexicano.

Story Behind The International Brigades “The International Brigades (Spanish: Brigadas Internacionales) were military units made up of volunteers from up to 53 different countries, who traveled to Spain to defend the Second Spanish Republic in the Spanish Civil War between 1936 and 1939.
The number of combatant volunteers has been estimated at between 32,000–35,000, though with no more than about 20,000 active at any one time. A further 10,000 people probably participated in non-combatant roles and about 3,000–5,000 foreigners were members or POUM. They came from a claimed "53 nations” to fight against the Spanish Nationalist forces led by General Francisco Franco and assisted by German and Italianforces.
