While the pandemic is pushing people apart, ASF Debate strives to connect students more than ever before by bringing back the annual ASOMEX Halloween Debate Tournament. On its 10th anniversary, we celebrated a decade worth of discourse by facing the best schools from Mexico City against each other, and even some visitors from Peru. With ten schools, 120 debaters, and the help of our wonderful teachers and administration, we shined the light on what the world considers taboo.
