Ni Una Menos

Everyday Hero

The group or individual to be inspired to do things differently

Latinx women, feminised bodies, gender non-conforming and transgender people. Hopeful people passionate about equality and rights. Individuals who want to make change but often feel isolated and ineffective without a support network. They are seeking a space to belong and effectively make change.

Ordinary World

The everyday world which is increasingly frustrating for our hero to live in

The overwhelming machista cis-heteropatriarchal state which fails to improve conditions for women. Femicide kills 137 women a day.

Better World

The positive change to the hero and the difference the hero has made

Members get to see the tangible impacts of their efforts as well as finding belonging with the collective. They inspire others to join the action. Key protective legislations are passed and change is felt e.g. the 2020 legalisation of abortion in Argentina. A culture in which gender-based violence is not tolerated, normalised or unpunished. A safe, prosperous and equal society.

Compelling Villain

An attention-grabbing manifestation of the selfish behaviour that stands in the way of change

Complicit tolerance of gender-based violence within parts of society leads to a shared feeling of defeatism when efforts are made to stop it but change is prohibited. Making tangible change is difficult and can feel like a drop in the ocean.

Call to Adventure

The trigger to change which could be the pull of inspiration or the push of necessity

Ni Una Menos is a collective cry and loving password that travels worldwide. “If you touch one of us, you touch all of us.” Remembering means fighting.
