Alma Guillermoprieto
72 Migrantes

In August 2010, a lone survivor directed authorities to a ranch in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas where 72 Central and South American migrants were massacred by
narcotraffickers. In her talk, Alma Guillermoprieto will discuss the 72 migrantes project, the current state of Central American immigration and the drug trade in Mexico.

Alma Guillermoprieto is an award-winning journalist and author. In 2008, Foreign Policy magazine named her one of the 100 most important public intellectuals in the world.
