Around 300 people from the self-proclaimed 'Generation Z' movement demonstrated this Sunday in Mexico City to 'visibilize the daily violence in the country,' in a mobilization with a smaller turnout than the one held a month ago, when a similar protest led to riots in the capital's Zócalo. This was the third 'Silent March for Peace' called in the last month, following the murder of Uruapan's mayor (Michoacán, west), Carlos Manzo, on November 1, a crime that unleashed a wave of indignation over the country's violence. 'Carlos Manzo lives, the struggle continues and continues,' could be heard among the slogans of the attendees. After marching from the Angel of Independence on the central Paseo de la Reforma avenue, the demonstrators arrived at the Zócalo without incident, unlike the first protest on November 15, which ended in riots in front of the National Palace, seat of the Executive Branch. Among their banners, phrases such as 'We young people are the present. Death to the bad government' and 'Mr. Trump. Thanks a lot for kicking Morenas' ass' could be read.
