Taty Almeida's Death Threatens Argentina's Human Rights Legacy

Taty Almeida, co-founder of the Madres de Plaza de Mayo, died June 14 at 95. Her activism built Argentina's institutional framework for justice: memory sites, forensic identification programs, and crimes-against-humanity jurisprudence that shaped international law. Under Javier Milei's revisionist approach to memory politics, that institutional foundation now faces an uncertain future.
