<p>On October 2, 1968, a tragic event unfolded in Mexico City that would forever change the nation's history. Between three thousand to five thousand people gathered at the Plaza de las Tres Culturas for a peaceful student protest. However, this gathering turned into a horrific scene, leading to the deaths of over three hundred individuals, including students, men, women, and children.
