The mothers of the disappeared in Argentina bring a white handkerchief on their heads, is the symbol of the diapers of their children, their adult children missing babies.
essentialized and society that claims to defend motherhood, each displays their institutions both more intimate and draw the children to their mothers. Selectively snatches the daughters and sons who oppose the system, killing or torture, abduction, away. Rosario Ibarra holder in the center of her black blouse, a brooch photo of the young Jesus Piedra Ibarra, his son, who turned 30 years of being gone political in themselves that she has looked everywhere. Still can not find it. Jesus would now be 50, but the photo of the brooch does not know the time and his smile remained forever young.
A Rosario Ibarra de Piedra not taught to be a mom, not cooking. They taught him to memorize many poems, which, he says, the origin of his good memory, also singing, dancing and playing the piano, the latter made it very bad, he says. "I loved to recite and dance, remember when I came home visits offered to dance and sing, I liked to see me. Now I love to cook but do not know when I married, the girl did not have time to work on my house, did many things out, my mom put me to study after school, had classes all because she wanted me a box of goodies. Cook did not know or an egg, already married I asked my mom how to cook, I went to call her to tell me what to do, I lived with some sisters and did not want realized that he knew nothing. To be a mother because that is not learned nothing battle, the only thing I was concerned when my children were little ones was bathing, bathed them my husband (Jesus Built Rosales) but otherwise I did not work. "
With practice has become so good cook who has signature dishes such as Rospamar , which are pork ribs marinated in five red pepper and apple cider vinegar with a "whole spice montonal type "which is then put in the oven. They say those who have proven they are delicious. It is a recipe recreated, but the name is original: Rosario to Marcos.
"I saw the role of motherhood with my mother who was kind and affectionate with me, wanted a home, it was a dream for me, I wanted a loving home. I was 24 when he was born María del Rosario, then came Jesus, Claudia Elizabeth and Carlos. My children have never questioned why I dedicate myself to what I do, in contrast, have always supported me and when I came to Mexico, my daughter came with me awhile, then came the other and finally youngest son. They have been supportive, committed, I have never claimed that I have spent looking for Jesus, my son Charles was 16 when his brother disappeared. They too have suffered much, suffered the entrance of the police to my house, the search, I did not let police enter the room of my daughters, but my children did enter and had twin boys, slept together, my younger son was terrified. "
No battle grew to four children and now her six grandsons who live in Monterrey and those who visit as many Sometimes it can. "My husband and I wanted to have these children, most of all he helped to be born there in the house, was also a grandson who no longer had time to get to the maternity. Each of my children were loved, carefully cared for. We liked going out with them for a walk, went to the countryside, cinema, theater, Sundays rode on horseback. We had a life full of joy amidst the relative happiness that can be in the country knowing that there is so much misery and pain, that I knew well by my husband's profession as a doctor you meet so many people playing sick and poor. Poverty and disease along. I was also interested, and by far the fighting moves there in Monterrey, where we lived then, because there the difference between exploiters and exploited is very sharp. There the people owned enterprises and banks, who lives with much comfort, and the workers, the poor, who were attending to my husband was a doctor in the workers of the steel mill. And I was with the miners in their protest marches against rising prices for transportation and food, went to demonstrations against the war in Korea and Vietnam, I remember carrying my little children out to all acts peace. "
In 1975 a group of mothers and families of missing persons and political prisoners, united in their despair and indignation, founded the committee is now called Eureka. Rosario Ibarra de Piedra has been in this fight since then, and many others. "On April 18, 1975 kidnapped my son and I did not know him, I did everything I could in Monterrey instances but did not give me answer, I moved to Mexico City on May 5 of that year. Allegedly came to Mexico City for twenty days because he thought justice work here, but instead I found other women, mothers, wives, sisters, who were in the same steps that I and so, with time, we got together and formed our committee called Committee for the Defense of Prisoners, Persecuted, Disappeared Political exiles from Mexico, a name that everyone forgot and no one wrote well. We changed to Eureka, as we found missing, because the fight over 148 missing found alive, and they were living to others, so we kept saying they were taken alive, alive we want! They are all our children. The Hope never dies in us. "
had a family where there was always the sense of justice, a Mason father and grandmother anarchist. "Yo, girl, cried because the Tarahumara Indians who passed in front of my house to sell their farm products were bare and very cold, buy shoes, I asked my dad. And my father, who was a man patient, he explained that he could not buy shoes for all the poor Indians from Mexico because they were many, but I could do something because this situation will end. " Among the objects of the house-museum lives, Rosario kept a small plastic sandals, and a girl of three years. He found it in the Chiapas jungle, in a place where people ran out the entrance by parachute, the military. "There were clothes, pictures and other things I returned with some friends, but huarachito who was going to give, I brought him here." Rosario is 78 now and still fighting for the Indians of Mexico.
Adelaide Grandma, her mother's mother was a woman who was widowed young and had to move forward their three children. Anarchist ideas was a lady that every March 21 with his own hands made some buttons with the colors of the Mexican flag and the words "Respect the rights of others is peace" and distributed to its customers and others who found down the street. Had a bakery called The Village Voice, she rode that business without knowing bread. "Who knows where my grandmother took out these ideas, she had to live in his home village girls, single mothers around the world despised and criticized so much, was very strong in character, impressed me very cute that old, was a town called Marin, Nuevo León beyond. "
Doña Rosario lives in an apartment building Condesa. Said to be surrounded by good neighbors and solidarity with their cause. Before he lived in various places where "men with funny faces hovered, cops and agents, neighbors, frightened, asked me out I'd better." His house is large, but have outgrown it and its objects symbolic of the struggle: a collection of crosses, many pictures, posters, candles and a crown of thorns. "The crown of thorns is a symbol of torture gave me some friends and crosses also represent something similar. A Spartacus was crucified, the rebels, the Romans crucified. I'm not religious but I am impressed at the life of Christ as a human being. As a child to me dizzy the smell of wax and incense and so could not go to church, then I withdrew from that institution the ways of the priests who preached what did not, but I have friends priests and bishops Liberation Theology, yo girl I was in Catholic school, but then I saved the socialist education. And I have a brass bed with many rosaries hung, blaming me I have to be Rosario, I saved my namesake the Virgin, I was dying when he was six months and my mom made a promise to the Virgin of the Rosary of put his name and he did. "
For Mrs. Rosario and women of the Eureka Committee, all the disappeared are the sons and daughters, they do not trust those theories, far north of this continent, which provide that only the biological mother should care for her son, they seek the son and daughter either, tirelessly. "We are not tired how we're going to get tired if we did not remove anything. They took a son, a husband, a sister and such links do not break! Our minimum demand is high and the maximum is the lowest. Unable to negotiate a son or a brother. You can negotiate a salary and a ground, but not a human life. A human life springs from our belly or linked to us by blood, affection or affinity and belief. That is not negotiable, that sustains us. Sometimes I think how sad it is for us the mothers of the disappeared have gained importance for that reason. Having a missing child is not living in peace, that is live with the anxiety, the internal war. The fact that I have taken a child is terrible, not wish it on anyone, I do not wish even to those who took him away, if they wanted the son of who was president when they took mine and even knowing, as I know that he gave the order to capture the court to kidnap boys, if his child disappeared, I would look because I do not want to be like them and want those facts are repeated in this country. "
Dona Rosario's gestures are aggressive, have said they have something called stress dynamic energy that makes her do many things with great force. Her mother called the gale. "When I was in school I lived in a big house with a long corridor, long, and I came running into the house, closed the door and my mother, who was in the background, throwing the door when he heard said, here comes the gale . And now my children call me Grandma comet. I wish I had more time to spend with them and read them, they call me when I leave. If something like to do is be in full-time grandmother, Snuggle my grandchildren and tell them many things. " Rosario

"I do not spend much because I'm not so presumptuous, in the latest fashion. As I have always spent a lot of it in books, and read everything I buy. I like to eat simple things, but yes flesh, but as I feel I did not eat meat, "says the northern to remember what I told the writer (Joseph) Vasconcelos" in Monterrey civilization ends and start the roast " .
Luckily, cognac, which he likes, usually give it away, and also "the good," says the knowledgeable
