Carmen Serdán

Carmen Serdán was one of the few women who spread the Diaz - Creelman interview (es) (which detonated the situation that would end up generating the Mexican Revolution) in gazettes and meetings.

She organized the reception for Francisco I. Madero in Puebla, in the company of a group of women from that city, with whom she carried out anti-reelectionist propaganda actions.

In those days, she used a code language of her invention and a pseudonym, "Marcos Serrato", to exchange, through several newspapers, messages with her brother Aquiles, who was in San Antonio, Texas.

While the men were being watched by the government of Mucio P. Martínez, the women of the so-called Feminine Club were in charge of the war preparations and of spreading the San Luis Plan, which indicated the steps to follow in the armed uprising.

In her memory, several schools (kindergartens, primary and secondary), houses of culture, markets, libraries, colonies and sports facilities in Mexico are named after her.
