Join Amnesty International activists to commemorate
EL DIA DE LOS MUERTOS Visit the Mexican Consulate and the Guatemala Consulates in San Francisco to demand justice and to stop the violence against women. Since 1993, almost 400 women and girls have been murdered and more than 70 remain missing in Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua, Mexico. In Guatemala, 2200 women have been killed since 2001. In both countries exceptional cruelty and sexual violence characterize the killings. Those in solidarity will be delivering petitions and hundreds of handmade crosses to the consulates across the nation. Each cross represents each of the women who have been brutally murdered. When: Thursday November 2nd Time: 9am Where: Outside the Mexican Consulate 532 Folsom St San Francisco, CA 94105 We will then continue to the Guatemala Consulate 870 Market St # 667 San Francisco, CA 94102 Please call the Amnesty International San Francisco Office at 415-291-9233 for more information or email cacoordinator [at] aiusa.org
