Hundreds of thousands of women are expected to flood streets across Mexico on Saturday for International Women’s Day, demanding gender equality and an end to violence against women. In Mexico City, the 8M march, held annually on March 8, will begin at multiple points, including the Monument to the Revolution and the Fuente de la Diana Cazadora (Diana the Huntress Fountain).

(Ángel Hernández/Cuartoscuro) Leaving at various times between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., the contingents — organized by various feminist collectives — are set to converge around 2 p.m., creating a sea of purple-and-green-clad protesters advancing toward the city’s Zócalo.

What will a second Donald Trump term mean for Mexico?

Image
Migrants. Drugs. Imports that pose a threat to the viability of industries in the United States. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump would like to stop them all from entering the U.S. from Mexico. President Claudia Sheinbaum will soon be Mexico’s third president who needs to build a useful relationship with Donald Trump. (Rogelio Morales Ponce/Cuartoscuro) The lengths to which he is willing to go to get what he wants could significantly define Mexico’s relationship with the United States during the four years of the second Trump presidency.
