Mexico City, January 23 (RHC)-- In Mexico, 26-year-old artist, activist and feminist Isabel Cabanillas de la Torre has been assassinated in the border city of Juárez.  She was an outspoken advocate for women’s rights and a member of the feminist collective Daughters of Maquila Worker Mothers. 

Fellow activists are demanding justice for her murder and an end to the femicides and disappearances of women that have plagued Juárez since it became a center of cheap manufacturing for American companies under the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA.
