Stake attention in this memory
A vertically displayed, backlit newspaper page from the "Ultimas Noticias," Excelsior, Diario de Mexico, dated "Martes 11 de Septiembre de 1973," is presented within a dark frame. The prominent main headline reads, "ALLENDE TODAVIA RESISTE CUARTELAZO EN CHILE" (Allende Still Resists Coup in Chile). A sub-headline states, "Con Aviones y Tropa Atacan la Casa de Gobierno" (With Planes and Troops Attack the Government House). Below the main headlines, the page features a section titled "Allende Sigue en La Moneda; hay Bajas; la Comunicacion, Dificil" (Allende Remains in La Moneda; there are Casualties; Communication Difficult), followed by an article datelined "SANTIAGO DE CHILE, 11 de septiembre." To the left, a section is headlined "¡Ocupen las Fabricas! Pide a los Obreros" (Occupy the Factories! Calls to Workers). Further down, another headline reads, "El Ejercito: 'ya lo Destituimos'" (The Army: 'we have already overthrown him'). The newspaper includes several monochromatic images: two close-up portraits of men (one with a mustache, one with glasses, likely Salvador Allende and another figure), an image of a damaged or ornate building (likely La Moneda Palace), and a photograph of a crowd of people. The display is part of an indoor exhibition environment, indicated by the dark background, the illuminated nature of the display, and the partial visibility of another similar backlit display to the right. This presentation style is consistent with the Museo de la Memoria y los Derechos Humanos (Museum of Memory and Human Rights) in Santiago, Chile, where historical documents related to the 1973 coup are exhibited.
