"Un soldado me confesó quién dio la orden de disparar" sobreviviente de matanza del 68 | Elizabeth

In this episode of the podcast "I Survived…," a woman relives in detail one of the darkest days in Mexico's history: when the government closed a plaza full of students… and opened fire. As the country prepared to host the 1968 Olympic Games, she was just trying to get out alive. "I saw flares in the sky, a man with white gloves… and then, the gunshots." This true account will take you to the heart of a silenced tragedy, where state violence disguised itself as order and the truth was buried for decades. It's not history. It's living memory. And it still hurts. 00:00 - Introduction: The Living Memory of '68 00:08 - The Flare in the Sky: The Signal of the Beginning 01:15 - The White Glove and the First Shots 02:30 - The Sound of Tanks Entering the Plaza 03:50 - "We Started Running Without Knowing Where" 04:46 - The Mistake of Taking Refuge in the Chihuahua Building 06:10 - The Massacre Inside the Building 07:45 - The Survival Instinct in the Midst of Chaos 09:20 - Losing My Friends in the Crowd 11:05 - The Soldiers' Gaze 12:27 - "You Can't Get Out!": The Military's Order 14:10 - My Mother's Plea to a Soldier 15:50 - "If a Stray Bullet Hits Him, It's Not Our Fault" 17:30 - The Decision of Leaving at the Risk of One's Life 7:00 PM - The Way Out: A Corridor of Terror 9:00 PM - The Image I'll Never Forget: A Trail of Blood 11:15 PM - The Plaza Covered in the Shoes of the Absent 10:40 PM - The Persecution: "Being a Student was a Sin" 11:50 PM - The Fear in the Days That Follow 12:00 PM - How Do You Live After Surviving a Massacre? 12:15 PM - Trauma and Recurring Nightmares 13:30 PM - The Meaning of "October 2nd is Not Forgotten" 14:50 PM - A Message to the New Generations 15:30 PM - The Importance of Keeping the Memory Alive 16:25 PM - The Student Movement of 1968: A Legacy of Struggle
