A Vital Matters Perspective: Shared Histories: The Women of Juárez and the World
Shared Histories: The Women of Juárez and the World
Xochitl Flores-Marcial reflects on inscriptions within El Árbol de la Muerte: Maquilando Mujeres, highlighting parallels between femicides in Juárez and global violence against women. She examines how corporate logos and perpetrators' nicknames carved into the artwork expose the systemic roots of this violence, pointing to multinational industries and societal complicity. The piece serves as both a memorial and an indictment, urging viewers to question who is responsible and what change is needed to end these injustices.
