The Opinions

I Survived a Kidnapping in Mexico. Now I Tell the Stories of Those Who Didn’t.

Listen Later

In June 2020, Manuel Bayo Gisbert, a visual anthropologist and artist, was abducted by members of a drug cartel outside of Mexico City. He was beaten, tortured and ultimately released, making him one of the few survivors of kidnappings in Mexico. A crisis of violence and disappearances has plagued the country for decades. In this episode, hear Gisbert tell his own story and how it led him to collect the memories of those who are still missing.

Read Gisbert’s essay and see his photos of the survivors and families of the disappeared on nytimes.com.
