Overview
- A Change.org campaign opposing the Aguilar family’s 15 September concert in Guadalajara surpassed 137,000 verified signatures in roughly 48 hours.
- The petition cites Pepe Aguilar’s call to migrants to “hacer las cosas legalmente, sin pretextos” and Ángela Aguilar’s description of herself as “mexicoamericana legal” as divisive statements.
- Signatories ask Governor Pablo Lemus Navarro to cancel the show, avoid spending public money on the act, and prioritize local talent.
- In Morelia, a separate petition to remove Christian Nodal from the Grito lineup neared 10,000 signatures after feminist collectives launched the effort.
- Organizers argue Nodal’s booking is inappropriate due to public claims of violencia vicaria and economic control referenced by Cazzu, while the Michoacán government has not issued a response or changed the lineup.
