Mexican teachers are gearing up for a massive protest, threatening to disrupt the highly anticipated FIFA World Cup 2026, which is set to take place in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The teachers, who are members of the National Union of Education Workers (SNTE), are frustrated with the Mexican government's lack of investment in education, with many schools struggling to provide basic resources and services. The SNTE has a history of organizing high-profile protests, including one in 2013 that brought Mexico City to a standstill. As the World Cup approaches, the teachers are planning to take their message to the international stage, potentially drawing attention to their cause and putting a spotlight on the country's education crisis.
