WOMEN'S DAY

The class was on March 9, one day after Women's Day. Therefore, on March 10, a national stike called #ADayWithoutUs was held, in order to raise awareness about the misogyny, femicides, and gender violence that women experience every day.

In class they gave us the opportunity to give our points of view on the subject. Moreover, we saw the importance of the image in these movements.

For example, the criticism after the government of Mexico put the barrier outside Palacio Nacional to "protect" themselfs. That showed the lack of interest in the dialogue and understanding of the subject.

Hi.

Before going to sleep I just wanted to share this article about yesterday’s national labour strike here in Mexico, an event planned by Mexican feminists to demonstrate how the country would be without us, women. The article is in English, and it hurts that other countries understand the movement but in Mexico we are just stupid women who doesn’t get f*cked right. Yesterday was historic and will be remember forever and it makes me so proud.
