Martha Rivera Alanis became an internet sensation after a video went online showing her leading children through a duck-and-cover drill amid the violence.

Thanks for sharing these reports with the world. That teacher deserves formal public recongition for her quick thinking and courage. It breaks my heart to see my people of Mexico suffer in such conditions. When I was a young boy we would take the bus from San Angelo TX to Jerez Zacatecas to visit my family. I haven't been back in 18 years, but my family says it's not even close to the same, people are scared to even go the the Jardin.
Thanks for sharing and stay safe.
