Marcha en contra de la violencia machista en República Dominicana
Commemorating International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, thousands of people congregated in the capital city of Santo Domingo, protesting and bringing awareness to issues affecting women’s rights including femicides, the right to legal abortion, and legislation that will pave the way for equality. Held on November 25, 2018, this event marked the 58th anniversary of the tragic death of the Mirabal sisters: Patria, Minerva, and María Teresa, whose lives were ended by Trujillo’s forces on November 25, 1960. Due to the bravery of these three sisters, November 25 has been adopted as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
