Leer Mas Celebrations in Mexico City: International Diversities Solidarity DayPosteado el August 6, 2007 - Categorizado en Mexico Art and Culture, Mexico Events Tourism, Mexico Tourism In Mexico City, the International Diversities Solidarity Day focused on the Roman Catholic Church and its difficult relationship to the Sexual Diversities with special attention to the human rights situation for Gays and Lesbians within the Roman Catholic Church, as well as the threat the Roman Catholic Church poses in many countries in particular in Latin America and Africa, where the Church still maintains an unparalelled influence even in secular politics. The Vatican is a sovereign State, in fact an absolutist monarchy, and should be treated as such. It is an unacceptable situation that one state not only denies its citizens fundamental civil, democratic and human rights, but also attempts to interfere in the internal politics of other sovereign states. The International Diversities Solidarity Day in Mexico City was commemorated with a solidarity vigil in the Glorieta de Insurgentes [Insurgentes Square], on Saturday August 4, in the heart of Zona Rosa, our pink neighbourhood with many different activities, artistic events and information stands by different groups and organisations.
