In Mexico giant march and general strike demand justice for murdered women

Candice Yanez Download PDF flyer One contingent in the giant women’s march in Mexico City March 8. Photo: Alan Roth. Millions of women in Mexico went on a historic, nationwide strike on March 9, boycotting workplaces and other spaces, like schools and marketplaces, to protest gender-based violence and the government’s impunity in face of the country’s surging femicide rate. Workplaces and public spaces−parks, libraries, and public transport−were nearly empty with only men present because women joined the 24-hour protest, called “Un Día Sin Mujeres” or “A Day Without Women”. It is the largest women’s strike in the history of Mexico, whose past is rich with mass labor and student strikes. The mass protest was organized to demonstrate how the absence of women impacts society. ...

Mexico offers political asylum to Julian Assange

Julian Assange speaks to the media from the balcony of the Ecuadorian Embassy in London in May 2017 Mexico has said that it was ready to offer political asylum to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, after a British judge blocked his extradition to the United States to face espionage charges. "I'm going to ask the foreign minister to carry out the relevant procedures to request that the UK government releases Mr Assange and that Mexico offers him political asylum," President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador told reporters. The leftist leader welcomed the British court's rejection of the US request to extradite the 49-year-old Australian publisher due to the risk of suicide, calling it a "triumph of justice". "Assange is a journalist and deserves a chance," he said. Lopez Obrador sa...

Obrador’s Visit to Trump is a Betrayal of the U.S. and Mexican People

by LAURA CARLSEN Photograph Source: Israel.rosas83 – CC BY-SA 4.0 To praise a tyrant is to insult a people. López Obrador’s proposed visit to Washington is an insult to the American people, and especially to the 37 million Mexican migrants who live in the United States. The purpose of the state visit with Donald Trump on July 8 is to celebrate the entry into force of the Mexico-United States-Canada Treaty (T-MEC) on July 1. It comes at the worst possible time. First, AMLO is traveling to the United States at the height of the pandemic in both countries. In the U.S., a new outbreak concentrated in the southern states has secured its position as the world leader in deaths from COVID-19, largely attributed to the lack of measures and strategies by the federal government and t...

US Drinking Beer, Producing Cars and Military Tech at the Expense of Mexican lives

by TAMARA PEARSON Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair Fridges in Mexico are empty of beer because production has ceased as the product isn’t considered essential. However, US company Constellation Brands is defying local orders and forcing Mexican workers to continuing producing its Corona and Modelo beers for export to US consumers. The company is just one of thousands of US-owned brands operating on the Mexican side of the border so they can plunder Mexican resources and take advantage of extremely low Mexican and migrant wages, while sending all the goods north. Together these companies form vast factory-scapes of cities where they hog the water and leave locals without. The operations of these companies take on an even more sinister tone in a country where deaths du...
