Liliana López Foresi: To be good journalist one must learn. One does not learn to be a good person.

, ,

Translated  by Katrina Hassan This article belongs to The Insurgent Women series Liliana López Foresi, is a reference point to commitment in journalism. Her journalism is not one that is bribed, or that destroys, but resists and is has solidarity when everything goes wrong. She is a myth, a legend of journalism that many of the Argentinian oligarchs have tried to fade out through time. If people think about ethical, humane, indispensable, responsible, gender focused journalism in Argentina, the sole representative is Liliana López Foresi. If Liliana López Foresi is so important for the journalistic feminine base and political opinion in…

L’amnesia di un paese sconfitto

,

Tradotto da Monica Manicardi Per non andare troppo lontano, ecco il paese sconfitto, che con tutto quello che è successo  durante la dittatura era previsto che  in questa fase al posto del neoliberismo e della dimenticanza, la società avrebbe ricostruito il suo tessuto sociale, incarcerato  quelli che hanno commesso crimini contro l’umanità da parte del  governo e aver costruito le infrastrutture. Ma, è il  contrario. La stessa società carogna si è impegnata a negare il genocidio, a disprezzare  i familiari delle vittime del Conflitto Armato Interno, e a dedicarsi a guardare tramite la pigrizia e l’apatia come smantellare lo Stato e a  far sparire tutte le risorse, quelli…

The Amnesia of a Defeated Country

,

Translated  by Marvin Najarro Without going any farther, there is the defeated country, which if we take into account all the things that happened during the dictatorship, at this point in time, instead of neoliberalism and forgetfulness, society should have opted for the rebuilding of its social fabric, imprisoning those who committed crimes against humanity, and the rebuilding of its infrastructure.    But instead, it is an emaciated country. The same vulturelike society has dedicated itself to deny the genocide; to denigrate the relatives of the victims of the Internal Armed Conflict; and to see with apathy how the state is dismantled…

Na Guatemala, apagou-se do sistema educativo toda evidência dos tempos nefastos da ditadura

,

Tradução do Beatriz Cannabrava, Revista Diálogos do Sul Para não ir tão longe, aí está o país vencido, que com tudo o que passou em tempos de ditadura era para que a estas alturas, em lugar de neoliberalismo e desmemoria, a sociedade tivesse reconstruído seu tecido social, encarcerado os que cometeram crimes de lesa humanidade a partir do governo e levantado a infraestrutura.  Mas, pelo contrário, está em puro osso. A mesma sociedade carniceira dedicou-se a negar o genocídio, a menosprezar os familiares das vítimas do Conflito Armado Interno, e a se dedicar a ver preguiçosamente e apaticamente como desmantelam…

Gender Based Violence is a State Policy

,

Translated  by Resumen Latinoamericano, North America bureau Violence against women and the impoverished and exploited masses is a State policy in societies with neoliberal governments. Before the armed wing, there is the resource of religion, which emotionally manipulates the excluded but doubly violates women because of their gender. In the name of faith, protected by misogynist religions, many men exercise gender violence to the point of feminicide. This is not new, we are not discovering sugar water. But an absent state, infested with corruption, where machismo, misogyny, homophobia and patriarchy are systematically nurtured, is responsible for gender violence and its…

Guatemala: A Dead Country

,

Translated  by Resumen Latinoamericano, North America bureau We should have a minimum of shame, since we have no courage. A minimum of indignation that takes us out of the social networks that puts up with everything and take to the streets that are witnesses of the country’s history. The convenience of a social network is beautiful, but that is just make-up, a varnish, verbiage, oratory; it does not bring about root changes and Guatemala is a rotting country.  It is the responsibility of the same mestizo and urban society, incapable of uniting with the native peoples in their enormous dignity and…
