El rostro de la migración en México a través de la crónica periodística de "Pie de Página"

Under a continuous flux of human beings, both inward and outward, Mexico has now become the centre of a dramatic migratory crisis embedded in a socio-political context influenced by different actors beyond the United States. The migrants gathered in the southern border of Mexico no longer come only from Central and South America: they are also Asiatic and African. Given the extreme vulnerability of the legal, political, social and cultural status of the migrant, I want to emphasise the role that the newspaper reports play as cultural conveyors of condemnation and resistance against the life and death trading in the Mexican borders. This narrative journalism sheds light on dark spaces, focuses on individual lives and tells us stories that belong to specific faces, names and surnames. By doing so, it induces in the reader a process of empathy which is necessary to get closer to the other. More specifically, I will explore the work carried out by Pie de Página, a team of digital journalism.
