According to the Ministry of Culture, the event will take place at 8:00 p.m. local time and the audience will be able to enjoy lectures by singer-songwriter León Gieco and Uruguayan group Agarrate Catalina.
To honor the work of the Nobel Peace Prize winner, the event will also commemorate 40 years since the end of the last civil-military dictatorship (1976-1983) and the restoration of democracy in this country.
According to this state portfolio, the event will honor one of the most important leaders of the region and the world and invite people to defend rights and peaceful coexistence against hate speech and expressions of intolerance.
On the same day, the Center pays tribute to the mothers and grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo for their tireless denunciation of the crimes against humanity committed by the military regime and the efforts to recover their children and grandchildren disappeared and appropriated during these years.
For their part, members of social, trade union and political organizations are preparing the details of an event against denialist speeches planned for the 16th.
Under the slogan “For democracy we do not vote correctly”, groups such as the Mothers, Libres del Sur, the Central Workers of Argentina and the Permanent Assembly for Human Rights will highlight the importance of preventing “neofascisms that promote the same ideas” of death, which is too led to the most terrible genocides.”
