Feminist Collectives and Athenaeas faced the Zócalo during march

At least 60 women, members of feminist collectives, left around 14:30 this Tuesday from the Monument to the Revolution, in Mexico City, to the Zócalo plancha.

With signs and slogans, they advanced on Paseo de la Reforma, Hidalgo Avenue and 5 de Mayo, demanding justice for the victims of femicide, as well as security in the face of constant disappearances of young people throughout the country.

However, a group of at least 20 women, dressed and hooded, identified from the Black Feminist Bloc, marched in parallel to demand the immediate release of their three compañeras arrested on the night of April 15 by the capital's Citizen Security Secretariat (SSC-CDMX) after attacking a UAM teacher who was circulating on Republica de Cuba Street, in the Historic Center.

It is worth mentioning that the women who are now inmates were part of the hooded women who stripped the offices of the National Human Rights Commission (CNDH) located on that street more than a year and a half ago.

As has become customary, armed with hammers and metal pipes, they carried out riots in their wake. They even smashed a newspaper stand on Paseo de la Reforma and broke the windows again at the entrance of the Hidalgo Metro Station, on Juárez Avenue.
