“If this can happen to the President, imagine what #women go through every day.”
Her response has ignited a countrywide reckoning over #ViolenceAgainstWomen, one of Mexico’s most urgent crises.
The nation records 10 #femicides a day, according to #UNWomenMexico and thousands more cases of #harassment many of which go #unreported.
