context_page_description: Matilde Herrera was an Argentine journalist, writer, and poet. She was a prominent militant against the self-styled National Reorganization Process that took over the country between 1976 and 1983. She was one of the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, for whom she personally contributed to the recovery of two children who had been illegally adopted.
context_section_description: Herrera was honored in 2002 by the Legislature of the City of Buenos Aires, along with 17 other outstanding Argentine women of the 20th century, including Eva Perón and Alicia Moreau de Justo. The selections were made by the Commission for Women, Children, Adolescents, and Youth.
  In an official act carried out on 24 March 2010, the actress Florencia Peña read Herrera's poem "Seremos libres" (We Will Be Free) at the Navy Petty-Officers School of Mechanics, one of the main clandestine detention centers during the military dictatorship.
  In the Remembrance Park of Buenos Aires, there stands a statue (Sin título; Untitled) by Roberto Aizenberg in honor of Herrera's three disappeared children: José, Valeria, and Martín. In the sculpture, the contours of three geometric figures without faces are shown, representing all the young people disappeared during the military dictatorship.
