LGBTQ+ Mexican Revolutionaries

LGBTQ+ Mexican Revolutionaries

September 16th is Mexican Independence day, why not talk about another Mexican war, the Mexican revolution. While people like Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata are discussed when the revolution is discussed, there are people that are forgotten or erased from history.

Today, we wanted to share two queer revolutionaries, Amelio Robles Avila and Manuel Palafox.
