Mexican journalist Sandra Rodríguez Nieto describes her work connecting personal tragedies and stories of suffering with the dysfunctional political and economic context in her country. She explains how national stories of corruption, impunity, and criminality have affected the everyday lives of the Mexican people. The assumption of impunity in her country has even led the younger generation to commit brutal murders. Rodríguez reminds us that individual societies are connected within the international system and that only together can we create beneficial change.
