#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.

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.
