The Argentinian fight for abortion is encouraging feminists all over Latin America. A project legalizing abortion is to be considered by the Senate. Abortion is still illegal in most countries in Latin American and the Caribbean. On August 8, the Senate will have to decide on the bill decriminalizing and legalizing abortion, already approved on June 14 by the Chamber of Deputies. A lot of emotion in Buenos Aires, but also in the rest of the continent, where feminists took over social media platforms with many messages of solidarity: “If Argentina can, Venezuela too”.
