GIVING IS BEAUTIFUL - Liliana Barchiesi

30,00 €

Today, new and more diverse challenges are emerging, but gender inequality persists, and its most blatant and tragic manifestation is femicide. Civil rights, so hard-won, are too often ignored and challenged: freely choosing to be a mother means not having to choose between career and motherhood, thereby denying equality in the workplace, which, in fact, remains violated. Being able to express oneself freely, in a way that defines and represents us, while respecting the freedoms of others, is a goal worth pursuing.
al reflection and feminist practice have allowed us to understand that sexual repression lies at the heart of the system—the crux of the problem that relegates us to subordination and confines us to roles imposed by the blackmail of motherhood and love. Today, a new and emerging feminism, driven by young people confronting their history and past experiences, offers hope, but there is no doubt that the path is arduous and that much remains to be done. “This book project arose less from the need to tell my story as a photographer than from the desire to share memories and emotions, in the hope of contributing to a better world—a world for which we have worked with such passion and for which we will continue to work.”
(Excerpt from the text by Liliana Barchiesi)
