Generation Z Group Sets Nov. 20 Mexico City March as Sheinbaum Seeks Probe

Officials have requested an inquiry into a violent hooded group seen breaching barriers at the National Palace.

Overview

  • Organizers called for a Wednesday 11:00 a.m. demonstration following the same Ángel de la Independencia–Insurgentes–Zócalo route.
  • The date aligns with Revolution Day commemorations led by the federal government, drawing added scrutiny of the protest plans.
  • City authorities reported 100 police officers injured, 20 civilians hurt, and 40 people detained after clashes near the palace gates.
  • Sheinbaum showed video of masked participants using grinders, lock picks, and hammers to tear down fencing and asked the city attorney general to investigate possible orchestration or payment.
  • The president said most attendees were not Gen Z and alleged that businessman Ricardo Salinas Pliego and his TV networks promoted the mobilization.
