The transcript discusses the renaming of a street to 'Son 30.000' in honor of those who disappeared during the Argentine dictatorship. Activists commemorated the International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances at ESMA, a site of memory. The organization Madres de Plaza de Mayo played a key role in the renaming, previously named after a military figure. They have also been instrumental in finding 130 of the estimated 400 stolen grandchildren. Many ex-military personnel have been convicted for crimes against humanity committed during the dictatorship.
