#Sheinbaum — Mexico’s first woman president, elected earlier this year, stated in her public address:

“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.

2/3

What happened: while greeting citizens outside the national palace in Mexico City, president Claudia Sheinbaum, Mexico’s first woman president, was groped and forcibly kissed by a man. The incident was caught on video and quickly went viral. Within hours, Sheinbaum filed a formal complaint and the suspect was arrested and charged with sexual assault.

Rather than heightening her security, Sheinbaum announced she will continue walking among citizens, saying she refuses to lead from fear. Her decision is now being hailed as a turning point, a rare instance where power met vulnerability without silence.

Sheinbaum adressed the nation: ‘if this can happen to the president, imagine what women go through every day.’ Her words ignited outrage and reflection - shining a light on Mexico’s epidemic of gender-based violence, where 10 women are killed every day and harassment in public spaces remains endemic.
