Miriam García, one of the top references of the Chivas women's dressing room, applauds the measure. In reflecting, he says that it is not a struggle of men against women, but a fight against violence. He recognizes that in Mexico there is a fear of not knowing that they will return home with good or if the bad news will run from one moment to another .

“I think it is a situation of respect, that all as women we are aware that we are in a fight and not against sexes, I think it is not a fight of sexes. It is a fight against the violence that exists in Mexico in general, not only against us as women . It is also time to raise your voice, say that we are here and that we want equity. We want to do things well and we are here to do anything, just like men. This is about working together, not dividing ourselves by this type of event, but working as a team to make the world in general better for everyone, ”he explains.

Support from Amaury Vergara to join the national strike was always present. “It really is a great institution and Amaury who is our main representative is supporting us in an incredible way . I had not felt as much support as I felt with Amaury. It is an indication that comes from above, the whole institution is in this situation of support. We are together, it is not men against women, but all together for something better, ”adds Miriam García.

🎥 “Amaury is supporting us incredibly. We are together, it is not men against women. Cause fear, you don't know if you're going to get home with good. It's hard, but we are more good than bad. It's time to become aware ”: Miriam García. @ASMexico @US_diarioas pic.twitter.com/B6QyCxbZ5f

Finally, the soccer player recognizes that the situation in the country requires this type of measures to raise her voice . Fear cannot overcome, because it ensures that they are more good than bad. “I think it causes a little fear first, because you have sisters, moms, grandmothers. You don't know anymore, boys, girls, you don't know if you're going to get home and you're going to get there well or if you're going to get home and your whole family is going to be there, ”he says.

Everyone right now we are in that situation of fear of not knowing if you are going to get to your house and you are going to be complete . You live your days thinking about what will happen tomorrow, if I'm going to arrive well, if bad news is going to come to me or what I'm going to read in the newspapers. It's hard, but I think we are more good than bad. It is time to become aware and understand that this is all together, ”concludes Miriam García.


PARTY FOR EQUITY

In addition to joining the national strike, Chivas has announced another measure to contribute to the search for equality.
