Long live the prieto power!
«In America we all have some original blood,
unos en las venas, otros en las manos«, Eduardo Galeano

La comunidad LGBTTTI+ cada vez va conquistando más derechos y espacios de visibilidad, recientemente la lucha feminista inició el indispensable #MeToo para denunciar a los acosadores y violadores que laboran en el teatro y la danza, así como en las escuelas dedicadas a esos oficios, y ahora cobra fuerza el movimiento Poder Prieto.
This group demands greater inclusion in the media of actors and actresses of brown, indigenous and Afro -descendant skin, as well as eradicating stereotypes of characters whose skin color is frequently associated with poverty, violence, crime or deafness.Above all, in a country where more than 70% of the population is brown, although in the media it is a minority.
Entre los más de 200 integrantes de Poder Prieto se encuentran Maya Zapata, Tenoch Huerta, Conchi León, Aquetzali Verástegui, Quetzalli Cortés, Christel Klitbo, Ricardo Esquerra, César Enríquez quienes, aprovechando el merecido reconocimiento que tienen, nos exhortan a combatir toda forma de discriminación. El movimiento afirma que “La lucha es contra la blanquitud de la mente, que alimenta y perpetúa el racismo sistémico, y no contra la gente de piel blanca” porque, como bien dice el exfutbolista y activista francés Lilian Thuram, “La blanquitud no es un color de piel, sino una forma de pensar”.

In a multicultural and extremely diverse country, Prieto Power is vital because it faces the entrenched prejudices that we have dragged for centuries since, according to the most recent National Survey on Discrimination (ENADIS), more than half of the indigenous populationand Afro -descendant considers that their rights are very little or nothing.Likewise, the advice to prevent and eliminate discrimination (COPRED) revealed that being poor or having brown skin is the main reasons for exclusion in the capital.
The great paradox is that in this country the pre -Hispanic cultures that pyramids erected, but the indigenous people who live today are discriminated against today are discriminated against today..Calling someone "Indian" is usually an offense form;In colloquial language there are these racists such as "the Indian is not to blame, but the one who does it compadre" or that is "an Indian down from the hill to drums".As Tenoch Huerta has expressed: "Mexico is a racist country that denies being racist".
Por otro lado, las diputadas Indalí Pardillo Cadena, Xóchitl Bravo Espinosa y Ana Francis López Baughen Patiño, más conocida como la actriz, cabaretera, directora y activista Ana Francis Mor, propusieron que, en la convocatoria de 2022, la Compañía Nacional de Teatro (CNT) contemple criterios raciales y de fenotipo, para que “al menos un 50 % de los actores y actrices del elenco de esa agrupación teatral tengan un tono de piel morena”.
Lo anterior a propósito del montaje de “Códice Tenoch”, obra escrita por el dramaturgo Luis Mario Moncada y montada por la CNT.The most disconcerting was that white -skinned people predominated in the cast, something absurd in the case of a text that addresses the intrigues by power among the manors of Texcoco, Azcapotzalco and Tenochtitlán, prior to the Spanish conquest, and that was presented fairly and ironicallyTo commemorate the 500 years of indigenous resistance.
Therefore, the deputies called on the CNT to incorporate a perspective of inclusion, diversity, anti -racism and non -discrimination in order to make modifications to the law so that, in the company, and in all media, the stereotypes that exist byThe skin color.
In turn, Enrique Singer, artistic director of the CNT, declared that this problem "deserves broad reflection, since it must be analyzed with care and responsibility, because the problem is much more complex" and, as there is always a "but" whenThese are rights, it seems risky to make a selection of actors and actresses from a pantone.
Uno de los ejemplos más claros de la discriminación y los prejuicios en la pantalla grande pueden verse en la película Nuevo Orden, de Michel Franco, la cual, a pesar de haber ganado varios premios, solo evidencia un profundo racismo y clasismo. En la cinta, un grupo adinerado de whitexicans, es víctima de una rebelión por parte de sirvientes y gente morena que, sin ideología alguna ni un discurso político o social, se dedican a robar, saquear, asesinar y generar el caos en un México distópico.This nightmare of white people confronted a horde of savages thirst for blood must most likely be one of the favorite films of Vox supporters and the world's extreme right right.
As Tenoch Huerta states: “Blanquity has all the media, economic media, cultural media, where racialized people are always the criminal.Chingón always has to be white ".That is why we cannot forget the wave of criticism that turned against the protagonist of the movie "Rome", Yalitza Aparicio, indigenous actress, who admirably and with great strength has managed to face racism and violence against him.
Para darle mayor impulso al movimiento, en diciembre pasado, Poder Prieto organizó, junto con Racismo Mx, Prietologías y otras organizaciones, su primer festival que se llevó a cabo en la Fábrica de Artes y Oficios (Faro) Cosmos, junto con activistas feministas, de la comunidad LGBTTTI+, actores, actrices, cineastas y músicos.Among other activities, there was an exhibition, panels, discussion tables, a table of anti -racist aliades, walks, conversations, cabaret workshops for children, and music with Kime and those of below.
We are concerned that the media are sensitized to this issue that concerns us all;If they do not, fortunately they will be powerful and other organizations ready to continue demand.
