Plate For A Homemade Trailer

Friday 26 June

For three weeks, I now take part in a further Defensoría in Quilmes, which was founded shortly before, and in all around of the other. María has just the beginning capacitación stopped, now to be further talleres that prepares women to that conduct to Defensoría independently. In the first Defensoría women have already made this step, after about nine months. Other defensorías existed for some years, without that they had opened. It depends on the group and also to the context of the area.
La un espacio de Defensoría it contención defensa, y Acompañamiento . The first taller, which I attended, had the goal of the violence spirals of the system as a destructive lies to expose and to practice ant-like small steps to change this system transformative. This begins with the most likely to be first at home. Empoderamiento might call it too.

María went for one of the many steps or ladders, divide our social life in different rating scales. The stairs of the machismo, men or women is on the steps of the adultismo that adults in principle to lease the truth for themselves, no matter what children say. The staircase of xenofobia or the racismo is Paraguayan and Bolivian immigrants * inside many Steps in Argentina. I belong as a German immigrant, as in another category. Looks to me will be, just because I'm from Germany. One woman said the same apt that I was with a warm bienvenido especially welcome after I introduced myself. The capitalismo plays an important role. Reich as workers * who on Piquete @ s - people who are protesting against their unemployment - about cartone @ s impressed so positive I was that María encouraging old and the stairs of the homofobia , the heterosexual system of coercion, that only a decent man with female Pair may form. Gay and lesbian couples are less, travestis deeper still. However, the various steps and reinforce each other or easily pick up. There are a few travestis in show business that have made money. (For the latter, it is next to the prostitution probably the only other job opportunities, the company allowed the role of travestis . The coercion included the wildly exaggerated feminine stereotypes.)
All these steps create a system of violence was María summary. It is lying to us. The change will not come from the privileged. Transformation begins with small steps. My imagination fails me at it, imagining that the destructive power could be the system of national church groups in Germany condemned in this uniqueness.

I found interesting in relation to the individual steps in particular, how some women reacted to the Head of xenophobia. A few said yo sí , I find that the Paraguayans will take the work away, they always work for less and it makes no sense, what I'm working because I can not sell it. The people of Paraguay are employed by those who do - can produce brand clothes - probably fake. Particularly What impressed me was how Maria has handled it. Quietly she let all the women talk more than once, wanted to say something about it. In between she asked in return whether it is the Paraguayans, who are responsible for ensuring that they get paid less and less. Then she pointed to the people on the lower steps and said that the capitalist system generates up the fight between the poor and the poor. It is this system that gives too little work and not the company controls. Even if it is less for Bolivian and Paraguayan people, it is still better than nothing, probably even more than what they could get in their home countries. Although it is certainly not all racist prejudices had been removed were, I believe, but some tell her that the problems of a structural nature from above.
