WLRN speaks with Silvia Carrasco about Confluencia Movimiento Feminista
b'Last week, I spoke via Skype with Silvia Carrasco, professor of Social Anthropology at Universidad Aut\\xf3noma de Barcelona. \\n\\nProfessor Carrasco is currently working on early school leaving and social integration of migrant and refugee children to Europe and on the penetration of neoliberal ideology in education and its impact on coeducation. \\n\\nAs a feminist activist, she is co-founder of Feministes de Catalunya, a radical feminist organization that is part of the Spanish Confluencia Movimiento Feminista. http://movimientofeminista.org/\\n\\nIn this interview, I spoke with Silvia about her feminist activist work with the newly formed umbrella organization of almost 60 feminist groups uniting under the heading of "Confluencia" or "Coming Together."\\n\\nMy hope is that American listeners will gain in understanding the possibility and political power of uniting behind key feminist principles for the common good. \\n\\nWe are stronger together as a political force for change. Thank you to the Spanish women who are modeling for the world a way to bring all of us together to fight patriarchy and win.\\n\\nTo hear women in Confluencia talk about their movement at their launch on November 10th, click on this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeG2lOzgiKo and then go to configuraci\\xf3n (settings)-go to traducci\\xf3n (translation)-choose language, to have English subtitles provided.'
