the morning of April 16, 2013
I was about to kiss fast while
I checked my cell phone when he read a
message a news that said in this
cube super urban hero of life
Real anti-bullying hashish
I a superhero honestly what
first I felt it was a shit
fear was seven or eight years old when
as a child he pretended to be a super efe
I made my wristbands with sheets of
paper tied with ribbon for
protect me from my enemies of the
stones from the children on my block
I also had a pistol of those from
chinampina toy toy with the
which I climbed on my bum bike
of those emblematic rim visits
big back, small tire in front of me and
put into action to pedal through the
streets of my neighborhood trying to defend
or save people in trouble and that
believe in one of those patrols never
nothing happened
but anyway he came back very
happy my house because that made me
feel adventurous
I grew up I became an adult and the idea of being
superhero forget her
my name is cube i am a wrestler
professional mexican communicator and
activist for more than six years
I formed a social campaign to prevent
violence and bullying
I have had the opportunity to share
conferences workshops and activities without
profit for more than 90 thousand
girls young children teachers parents
of family the goal has been to encourage
happier school environments and
child safety locks was a very morrito
silent introvert of few friends
live surrounded by love but also from
violence violence in the neighborhood
violence in the family violence in the
school being a student the most
of my school years
they passed with some tranquility
however in high school age
that tranquility was very threatened
I lived what is now known as
bullying that I like to say the most
bullying
in my case my thin body was object
and white nicknames that I did not like or
be the companions and it was to see me in the
initial room that after being nurtured uy
what if I got broomstick
pass me the task I did not go it is clear to me
that there are young people and there are children that
that tomb us pulls on me was
different
one of my classmates
in counterpart he realized what
I passed in the living room and he told me
his face of despair was because you
you leave because you leave if you allow it to
go on a spear with you should I say
in your house what they are doing to you
he is more worried the one that jove and
I was afraid to say in my house what
at that time he lived was not a good
idea and it was not because I grew up with a
very rude and was mother is neither fighter
a mom who had a very
particular to educate their children
a mom that she had as well as her ritual
I was approaching her
so caresses the little head I kept
seeing and rigorously applying a way
very peculiar how to arm myself defend myself
he did not tell me quoting her in such a way
he said if you let them hit you in the
school I break your mother
well I also now laugh at soy
but in that one at that time to my
13 years was unarmed
something that was like a balm for
cushioning all that maelstrom was
take refuge in the rounds of my band
favorite coffee tacuba I remember afternoons
whole arriving at my house increasing my
backpack uploading music to everything
volume and net
how many times singing did not swallow me
my tears
one day a teacher in middle school
crying in the playground the high school and
after crossing some words I dared
to talk about what happened at school and
my parents then took actions and
thanks to the help of that teacher in
that moment my big problem seemed
it seemed to be solved at present
Many people still do not believe that when
you are harassed at the net school of
really die of fear
in those days something ethical happened
Uncle Enrique came to me
little brother sergio and me to a function
fight
when I first saw the ring I go
to put romantic style was how it was like
love at first sight
looking at the masks of the fighters
Bright colorful Listening to
blows because in wrestling not only
you can see the blows and feel
me that effervescence of a sand of
fight to the heat of those screaming
Wow
I want to be a fighter
I want to be a fighter at that moment
I was caught by a sport that even
the date I’m sure saved my life
I would say if the day is already
someone mess with me at school or
I gave him a key or I give him some
flying kicks
I was feeling my first came
training the next day can not I
raise expectations from the bed
done after months of fighting
free
helped me to understand to understand that
this ultra-thin teenager well that
I could toast the strings
Exercises withstand workouts
today I remember and I bring it here is
for me a dream
for having started in wrestling
at the same time I started to imagine another
equally powerful dream is of some
day to visit schools as a fighter
masked to tell the children
that violence is something dangerous and that
could mark his life in a way
terrible
I felt the urgent need to help
help children through
share my life story happened
more than two decades for that dream
come true and to my surprise
the first rival to beat was not the harassment
in schools I was my own fears
hey, I’ve put on hundreds of times
the mask to go up to fight a
ring but not to enter a school
public ray is going to happen
I dared to take the step and through
of social service as a student
university student can begin to perform
this child dream
this proposal was so successful that I
they were looking everywhere
I had calls messages, emails from
parents and desperate mothers of teachers
and managers even on the verge of not
know what to do in their schools
I immediately put myself in action and
excessive way
I started sponsoring activities
conferences for which even
I did not even ask for a fee
Recovery
I stopped training but my condition
physical after my employment too
job
and the most painful thing to neglect my family
nobody told me how to do it correctly
or how that is done correctly
help others
I knew only one way to free myself
the philosophy of life that has given me
wrestling where not only does
fight up but also down the
ring and that’s when I decided to become
my own hero before being a hero
for others so immediately
I searched for current psychological therapy 10
an important pillar in my life
I invited and included my family in this
great adventure and today I am honored that
he is among us
also founded together with some friends
a civil association to be able to advance
more formally in this great challenge to
my surprise there were people who started
raise your hand that you liked the
proposal psychologists sociologists
social workers filmmakers
photographers visual artists with the
which we have made a collective a
team where I is perfectly
idea of seeing him that the more he in me
power or I assume that the challenge can be
greater to keep coming with more
impact more boys and girls and follow
spreading a message of peace
it’s been more than six years since
started all this and I am convinced the
Today we have visited more than 100
schools and we remain active
I believe that if teacher students
parents and even superheroes we do
team to support each other
others
the impact may be greater
life taught me through this
great lesson to give is also
receive and that is what today
honored with his presence to recognize
to recognize me as a superhero of
the real life
totally human
thank you very much
[Applause]
