Jasmine the Queen

They surrounded the “National Palace” with metal walls to prevent “vandalism” from paint, glitter and banners like last year.

They protect and defend the walls from paint better than they protect us from being kidnapped, raped, killed or letting our abusers roam free.

They placed walls to protect their buildings from the upcoming March 8th Woman’s Day march, but we still found a way to protest and make our voices known.

“Femicide Victims” written in big letters with paint across the metal walls, and underneath the names of the women and girls who aren’t with us anymore.

As the day passed phrases were projected on the front of Palacio Nacional like:

“Femicidal Mexico”

“A rapist will not be governor.”

And soon enough more and more women joined in and gathered at the Zocalo to place, signs, pictures, flowers and more stuff to remember the ones that aren’t here with us anymore and to take over something that was meant to shut us out at the beginning.

“The wall that got turned into a memorial”

We are tired, we are angry, we are worried and scared. But we will keep fighting and raising our voices!

For our sisters

For our mothers

For our aunts

For our daughters

For our grandmothers

For everyone who isn’t here anymore.
