• In addition to his career, Salinas is the general coordinator of the Movimiento IN LAK’ ECH por la Paz, A.C. (IN LAK’ ECH Peace Movement) in Mexico, which is a “civil initiative seeking to restore peace in Mexico by strengthening its society to transform violence with compassion.”

Political ambitions

• In March 2011, Denisse Maerker of the Punto de Partida Mexican TV show asked Emiliano if he was interested in running for political office to start a political career.
• Salinas responded that he would run for office “if I considered that government is the solution to the problems we face today.”

How Salinas plans to achieve his goal of reducing violence and corruption in Mexico

• Aside from his professional career, Salinas acts as a powerful voice against violence and corruption in Mexico.
• He has suggested that the "culture of self-victimization" is to blame for country's current plight.
• Salinas believes that if the Mexican people acted proactively through civil resistance, they would have the power to overthrow the "regional subjugation of the large drug cartels."
• He describes solutions to these problems through four levels of response against violence: (1) denial and apathy, (2) fear, (3) courage, and (4) non-violent action.

What Salinas believes in terms of non-violent action

• Salinas believes that the people of Mexico are in denial about the state of the country, and describes this denial as the first level of response against violence.
• Although Salinas mentions rage as an important step in combating violence, he is a practitioner of non-violent resistance.
• He believes that the Mexican people should channel their rage into activism.
