In addition, the dancers chose to show solidarity with the 43 missing students of Ayotzinapa and their families. These 43 students from the Raúl Isidro Burgos Rural Teachers' College of Ayotzinapa went missing in September 2014 while they were traveling to hold a protest. After a clash with the police, these students were taken to the police headquarters, and that was the last anyone heard from them. Each dancer wrote a 43 on her wrist to show solidarity with the missing students.
