This May 10, while many celebrate Mother’s Day, thousands of mothers in Mexico take to the streets to search for their disappeared children—to demand truth, justice, and dignity.
We stand with them.
Their pain is not isolated. It is part of a broader crisis of violence that crosses borders. From the disappearance of more than 130,000 people in Mexico to the more than 40,000 lives lost each year to gun violence in the United States, mothers across our region are united by loss—and by their refusal to remain silent.
Their pain is our pain.
On behalf of the organizations and communities that form the People’s Movement for Peace and Justice, we honor the courage of the mothers who march, who search, and who transform grief into collective struggle.
Their fight is a fight for all of us.
We commit to continue building a cross-border movement for truth, justice, and life—so that no mother has to search, and no child is taken by violence.
This Mother’s Day, let’s make sure they are
