Feminism

Soy Amy Goodman.

La legendaria organizadora sindical, feminista y activista por los derechos civiles, Dolores Huerta, falleció a los noventa y seis años.

Huerta fue cofundadora de la Asociación Nacional de Trabajadores Agrícolas en 1962 y luego de la Unión de Campesinos de Estados Unidos, que surgió de la fusión entre la Asociación Nacional de Trabajadores Agrícolas y el Comité Organizador de Trabajadores Agrícolas, que era dirigido por filipinos.

Ella trabajó con César Chávez en ambos grupos.

¿Quién fue Dolores Huerta? Ella nació en 1930 y acaba de fallecer a los noventa y seis años.

Mira, lo que pasa es que Dolores tenía muchas partes de su vida.

O sea, obviamente era una organizadora, era una activista, eh, era una feminista declarada.

Pero Dolores a mí me enseñó muchas cosas aparte de su trabajo político.

And welcome to Stuff I've Never Told You, a production of iHeartRadio.

And welcome to another edition of Feminist Movie Friday, or possibly Wednesday.

Things are shifting in our schedule.

One of those days.

Feminist movie whenever you're listening.

Day.

Yes.

I know what I see.

Or as Silvia Federici said, Feminists were quick to recognize that hundreds of thousands of women could not have been massacred and subjected to the crudest tortures unless they posed the challenge to the power structure.

This was a turning point in the history of women in Europe.

the original sin in the process of degradation that women suffered with the advent of capitalism, and a phenomenon, therefore, to which we must continually return if we are to understand the misogyny that still characterizes institutional practice and male-female relationships.

And I wrote my book, which is part of how we met about four years ago.

And it's called Feminist to Feminine.

And I go into more depth of like what I would do differently there because I was... hardcore raised in purity culture um and i it's funny because my parents weren't even like my parents are very balanced lovely wonderful people um and so i think it was more like the environment that i was in and the people that i was around and also the books that i was choosing to read were more my exposure to that and so i better that way then the other way but and that's what I that's one of the thing the conclusions that I came to when I was writing my book because I was like I'm having to work through things from purity culture but it is a lot easier to work through these things than it is to work through the fruit of the sexual revolution which is what most people my age have had to work through to go into dating into marriage and So we're all going to be working through things.

So I'm, I'm thankful that that's what I'm working through and not, or what I was working through and not, you know, other more like life altering things that can happen.

There's a lot of heart in there too, though, because it's me and I'm an emotional heart oriented person.

So that's my podcast.

And my book is called Feminist to Feminine.

You can get it on Amazon.

Claro

¿No? Yo lo he visto mucho con, con, con, con el movimiento feminista, por ejemplo, ¿no? O sea, salimos, pintamos las calles, pintamos los monumentos y dónde creamos espacios para dialogar también para poder avanzar, porque ciertas acciones por sí solas no es suficiente, ¿mmm? Entonces, sí, eso

Fíjate que sí, cuando tienes esa forma de, ese carácter y esa, pues ese don de convocatoria, ese don de qué padre que lo pudiste ver y que lo pudiste sacar.

Y ahí es donde te das cuenta: okey, yo tengo que hacer algo por todo esto.

Like no one even talks about that anymore.

Feminism has been blown apart from the inside by being infiltrated by these other groups.

I think there's a weird phenomenon that infects any kind of progressive movement, which is it's right there in the word.

They're not allowed to take inventory on what they've accomplished.

And

Feminist.

And who remembers Metal Gear Solid, dude? The old...

Yeah, who remembers this guy? At this point, I think he's gaybitting.
