In this beautiful church we will read Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, the greatest reference in New Spain poetry. Likewise, we will discuss the religious and mythical dynamics of Mexican syncretism.

In the heart of the city, right in front of the government palace, we will read "The Anonymous of Tlatelolco", which corresponds to the indigenous testimony against the conquest of Mexico.
