February 27 is and will be a permanent source of testimonies, analysis and reflection. Few dates in modern Venezuelan history in the last two decades have had such an impact on our social reality. There is nothing strange, therefore, that demagogues and opportunists, with different objectives, show it to their own and foreigners as a fetish that invokes terror and dismantles popular protests. It was not necessary, then, in conceiving this book, to make clear in its pages the role of the actors in this event that privileged death, to open the memory of the witnesses and to preserve forever the pain of the victims and the humiliation of the repressed. Here were the President of the Republic, his Minister of Defence, the general secretaries of the parties, the brave priests of La Vega, the doctors and paramedics who helped the wounded, those who received the corpses in the morgue, the looted and the looters, those who stay and those who leave. There was also the tearful weeping and the definitive mourning of a people.
