Autor: Lydia Cacho

Número de Páginas: 224

«A vosotras os digo, porque yo así lo he vivido, que el feminismo puede ser un camino y no la meta, que es una ruta de vida que se transforma y se nutre en la medida en que maduramos, que es la magia de la historia que inventaron nuestras bisabuelas, que es una revolución sin armas, un encuentro sin odio, una búsqueda de justicia y no de venganza».Lydia Cacho La periodista Lydia Cacho, una de las voces actuales más autorizadas en lo que a defensa de los derechos humanos se refiere, ha escrito este instructivo libro como alegato a favor de la libertad y la rebeldía bien entendida de las jóvenes españolas. La idea surgió tras entrevistar en España durante mucho tiempo a cientos de menores de dieciocho años acerca de sus sueños, sus aspiraciones, sus miedos, sus reivindicaciones, su identidad sexual… Chicas diferentes que opinaban abiertamente y exponían sin tapujos sus maneras de pensar el feminismo. Un feminismo «de brazos abiertos» que las incluya a todas, siempre con más preguntas que respuestas.

Autor: Patrick O’daniel

Número de Páginas: 313

Prohibition, with all its crime, corruption, and cultural upheaval, ran its course after thirteen years in most of the rest of the country—but not in Memphis, where it lasted thirty years. Patrick O’Daniel takes a fresh look at those responsible for the rise and fall of Prohibition, its effect on Memphis, and the impact events in the city made on the rest of the state and country. Prohibition remains perhaps the most important issue to affect Memphis after the Civil War. It affected politics, religion, crime, the economy, and health, along with race and class. In Memphis, bootlegging bore a particular character shaped by its urban environment and the rural background of the city’s inhabitants. Religious fundamentalists and the Ku Klux Klan supported Prohibition, while the rebellious youth of the Jazz Age fought against it. Poor and working-class people took the brunt of Prohibition, while the wealthy skirted the law. Like the War on Drugs today, African Americans, immigrants, and poor whites made easy targets for law enforcement due to their lack of resources and effective legal counsel. Based on news reports and documents, O’Daniel’s lively account distills...
