Violence against women up amid Latin America COVID-19 lockdowns

Medellin, Colombia – As Arussi Unda watched videos of empty Mexico City metro cars and shuttered businesses just one month ago, it felt as if Mexican women had made history. Unda, a leader of the feminist organisation Brujas del Mar, was one of the organisers of the country’s National Women’s Strike on March 9, when 6.6 million women did not leave the house to show the Latin American country what society would look like without women. “It seemed like a movie. Honestly, I couldn’t believe it,” the 32-year-old activist said. “I don’t remember anything like this ever happening before. We saw women with very different ideologies, socioeconomic statuses, living in very different realities, united under one call: ‘Stop killing up, stop raping us. ”
