Murals cry out for justice
When speaking of Mexican muralism, Zaldívar explained that those large canvases that the Court houses throughout its premises are a call to the Plenary to fight against the scourges of corruption, inequality, as well as against injustice.
“So that we remember that we have a commitment to the country to change that order of things. So that Mexico does not continue to have these scourges and to try every day to fight against corruption, inequality, injustice, especially for the most forgotten and those who have the least, “she said.
The Minister President highlighted that the murals of the Court not only “scream”, but “cry out for justice. They scream and clamor for us to continue advancing towards a better country, where money and social position do not define justice.
“The Court, he remarked, is a very important part of Mexican muralism. We have these important murals by (José Clemente) Orozco (…) but also by (Arturo) Carbonell and (Rafael) Cauduro”, to which they are united by denouncing injustice, corruption, abuse and torture.
Hopefully one day we can see these murals as an era surpassed, achieving it is everyone’s job; let us thank this greatness of women and men who made art a way of life for the good of the culture and history of our country: Minister Pdte. @ArturoZaldivarL pic.twitter.com/Ca9WAAqrKL
