Summary
Feminists have been organizing against gender violence in Mexico for years. But over the last few weeks, Mexican women have taken to social media to call out abusive men in creative industries, starting a new wave of #MeToo. Maria and Julio are joined by Peniley Ramírez, investigative reporter with Univision and columnist with El Heraldo de Mexico, and Emily Corona, freelance journalist and digital intern at Futuro Media, to discuss how the #MeToo movement in Mexico is growing.
ITT Staff Picks:
- How activist Ana González set off a #MeToo avalanche in Mexico, via the New York Times.
- Emily Corona on why the #MeToo movement has become a moment of reckoning for Mexico, from Latino Rebels.
- Check out this incredible series of illustrations in support of the #MeToo movement in Mexico by artist Maremoto (who live-illustrated at ITT's live shows in CDMX!) on Instagram.For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
