Messages of "FIFA Go Home" along with pictures of missing persons showcased at the June 11 protest near the Mexico City Stadium. While much of the world's attention was focused on the opening match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup at the Mexico City Stadium, relatives of missing persons took to the streets on June 11 to draw attention to a crisis that has gripped Mexico for decades: more than 130,000 people who have disappeared all across the country. When Mexican authorities have been unable to provide answers, citizen groups have often stepped in to search for clues about the fate of their loved ones.
