📸 In #MarchaLencha demand recognition and stop to hate crimes

Hundreds of women marched this Saturday from the Glorieta de las Mujeres que Lucha to the Botanical Garden of the Bosque de Chapultepec to demand an end to the violence they experience daily, including exclusion, discrimination and hate crimes.
The second edition of the “Marcha Lencha” was made up of lesbian, bisexual, trans, binary women, among others.
They called for coming together to build a comprehensive agenda that takes them into account so that their rights and ways of loving are fully recognized.

“We consider that the invisibility of us as women and lesbians and bisexuals responds to a prevailing machismo in our country and that also dominates the diversity agenda. Enough of an LGBTTTIQ+ agenda made by and that only includes gay men,” the organizers said in a statement.
The demonstrators demand full social and legal recognition of lesbomaternidades and diverse families, and a dignified treatment for children and adolescents.
