"Mexican Parents Torch Textbooks in Fiery Protest Against Gender Ideology and Communism"

Christian groups in Mexico have organized protests against the Ministry of Public Education, with parents burning textbooks they believe contain "Marxist-communist" indoctrination and sexual and gender ideology content. Over 12,000 people attended the protests, and over 112,000 signatures were collected in a petition to stop the distribution of the textbooks. Mexican President López Obrador dismissed the claims, stating that parents are "misinformed and manipulated" and that the textbooks were prepared by teachers and experts.
