Jamás Vencida: The Fight Against Gender Violence in Puerto Rico
Emma and Marianne speak with award-winning journalist Andrea González-Ramírez about the epidemic of gender violence in Puerto Rico.
.
Suliani's Poem (trans. Marianne Tissot):
I want you to think of me
as the woman who borrowed
courage from past and present warriors.
That daily step that inspires me
to believe that where there are ovaries
there is more than strength to keep going.
Hardworking woman, never defeated.
Infinite light that illuminates that sunset
that paints the most colorless flower.
I am part of that army
where there is only room for brave weapons, but with
red lipstick.
