Commemorating the struggle for the rights of women of African descent against racism and sexism
In Latin America, there are more than 200 million people who self-identify as Afro-descendants, of which more than 95 million are women. However, for Afro-descendant girls and women, their racial and gender condition has placed them at a socioeconomic, political, and cultural disadvantage throughout history. Therefore, as a society, it is imperative to recognize the structural existence of conditions that subordinate, exclude, violate, stereotype, or discriminate against Afro-descendant women.
