she wasn't a mexican anarchist. she was a student who was brutally killed by femicide that ITS gleefully and weirdly claimed, although no signs indicate they killed her. you make my point about north american anarchists being out of touch with what is happening in Mexico. I stand by my point that giving ITS a platform was a mistake.

The death of 22-year-old Lesvy Berlin Rivera Osorio on May 3 at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), Latin America’s largest public university in Mexico City, is a tale of pervasive government indifference toward violence against women in Mexico. Rivera was found dead with a telephone cord wrapped around her neck on the campus, long considered a sanctuary by students and the intellectual community of Mexico’s capital. Her death sparked outrage among students and community members. Dozens have mobilized to denounce the death not only as murder, but also as feminicide.
