Marcela Turati's, Thelma Gómez Durán's, & Eliezer Budasoff's story on narco-slavery was one of the most searing, unforgettable pieces I have read in years.
This webinar on the issue, from @Equatormag - behind so much exceptional writing recently - is bound to be important.
I will be logging on to this to learn more about forced labor in Mexico.

Santiago colapsó de nuevo. Octubre más lluvioso de la historia. El Niño aún no llegó a su pico. La infraestructura del milagro chileno es de papel. La única parte confiable es el ejército de pobres que está limpiando desde las 5 de la mañana. Buenos días señor, cómo está señor.
