Breathe
By Yohali Resendiz
Aylin Rodríguez Fernández, 20 years old, was a Psychology student at the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos (UAEM).
Early Friday morning, April 4, Aylin was found dead inside a house in the municipality of Jiutepec, Morelos.
Authorities confirmed that Aylín was beaten to death.
The day before her femicide, neighbors reported screams for help.
A 911 call for help was logged, by the time paramedics arrived, it was too late.
Late, as usual.
Aylin was no longer alive. According to initial reports, the alleged perpetrator is her partner, who was arrested at the scene.
As in other feminicides, there were mobilizations to protest and demand justice.
As in other feminicides, there was outrage from the authorities and messages expressing pain and a commitment to non-impunity.
But what can be done in the face of the lack of prevention, in the face of a system that protects aggressors and that the authorities in office only appear in the media because there is a need to wash their faces and hands?
It is Aylín, Gabriela, Leticia, Rocio, Teresa, Rosa, Adriana, Julia, Claudia, Nancy, Elizabeth, Vanessa, Jessica, Ana, Magaly, Abigail, Sofía, Aurora, Maribel, Patricia, Juliana, Carolina, Magaly, Dolores, Alicia, Angelica, Luisa, Danna, Alisson, Isabel, Olivia, Leticia, Sara, Diana, Beatriz, Melany, Fabiola, Antonella, Paola, Maria, Guadalupe.
Change the names of them, not the actions of governments.
The names of the aggressors change, their motives do not.
The rest is still geography
