Synopsis
El feminicidio en México se ha convertido en práctica común, las cifras superan cualquier expectativa. Ante la indiferencia del gobierno y el pésimo manejo de las autoridades, es cruelmente normal que mueran mujeres violadas, secuestradas, lapidadas, estranguladas, a manos de asaltantes, violadores, familiares, incluso de sus esposos o parejas sentimentales. El problema no sólo ocurre en las clases más necesitadas del país: el mal trasciende y aparece en todos los estratos de la sociedad. ¿A quién acudir? ¿Qué hace al respecto la autoridad? ¿Qué opinan organismos de derechos humanos o feministas?
This is an urgent and crucial call for society and the government to stop offering immunity when facing femicide in Mexico.
Femicide in Mexico has become a common practice, and the figures have far exceeded any imaginable number. Given the government’s apathy and poor management by authorities, it is now sadly normal for women to die at the hands of attackers, rapists, relatives, even their husbands or partners. The problem does not only occur in lower social classes; evil transcends and rears its head in all strata of society.
Frida Guerrera offers numerous cases of murdered women, shares the experiences lived by their parents and loved ones, survivors’ testimonies, deep reflections on the disappeared women, and an essential guide to avoid having any more victims.
