Ecuador: CFWIJ Condemns The Xenophobic And Sexist Attacks Against Alondra Santiago
Alondra Santiago, a journalist and political commentator for Café con JJ, faced a barrage of online hate after her comments on President-elect Guillermo Lasso’s first public speech on April 14. The journalist criticized the last part of the speech where Guillermo Lasso implied that he and his wife would be parents of pregnant adolescents. Referencing the ongoing debate to decriminalize abortion in Ecuador, Alondra commented, “We don’t need them to be our parents. We need to be able to decide...They are not pregnant adolescents, they are raped girls and adolescents.” Following her statement, Alondra was targeted by xenophobia and insults. This incident is not the first time Alondra has faced a smear campaign for her views and political commentary. CFWIJ condemns the online trolling against Alondra Santiago and commends her integrity.
