Flamenco I'm coming for you

Hi everyone!

Today I am going to talk about the country that I would like to visit sometime in my life. This country is Spain!, Well, to be honest, I define my relationship with Spain as love and hate. You will be wondering why? Love, because I like the flamenco dance very much. I have danced flamenco for six years and I would love to travel to Spain to learn the dance with the real gypsy women.  Hate, because Spain colonized our native world and I feel this historic fact makes a conflict in my mind. Even so I would still travel because I want to know the roots of flamenco in the poor places of Spain, among the gypsies outsider your ground historically. Finally they are people persecute and the dance has been a way to keep their culture.

For these reasons I would like to live in Spain for a few years and study the gypsy culture about dance flamenco. Besides, Spain is a doorway to travel through the rest of europe and I would like to travel around the world. I hope I have money to travel and fulfil a wish!

Why feminism?

Hello classmates! 

This is my blog and today I want to tell you my reasons for named this blog.

Feminism is special for me. It is a political position in life. For this I consider it a principle of life. 

"Personal is politic" is the most popular sentence for feminist movement and is very important for me. I try to practice it everyday, because it is a way to know myself.

For these reasons, I think that feminism is a topic very important today, because the woman and sexual diversity have been oppressed a long time for these economical, cultural, social and political systems: the patriarchy and neoliberalism. The women are the five percent of people in the world, so I don't understand how most people can be too discriminator and violent with the women and differents gender identities.

Therefore I take the cause of feminism and I hope that all the people are join to this movement, specially the women and diversity, for finish with oppresion and gender inequality.

Know yourself and Know the feminism!!! :) ♥
