What can we see in this photo taken in Spain?

On the left, a young female Frente Amplio MP, Bettiana Diàz, poses with a T-shirt bearing the logo Feminism or Death. This sparked off a controversy: according to a tweet from the newspaper El Pais, she was reproached for having “as a legislator…used the colors of a national symbol for the feminist cause”.

Françoise’s relationship with her landmark book: coincidence or not?

As the photo dates from March 2023, it’s possible that it’s a coincidence, but not certain. For Yayo Herrero, a well-known figure in Hispanic ecofeminism, no doubt already knowing that she would preface the translation of Feminism or Death (to be released in Spain in June 24), was able to speak publicly about the book. In any case, she doesn’t fail to mention Françoise, whom she considers essential, as she told me in an e-mail.

In any case, Françoise has been very well received in Spain, by civil society and certain political parties. And at university: our friend Delphine Sangu made a big splash with her speech at the Alicante Congress (a landmark event in the life of ideas in Spain), and returned with new invitations and requests to collaborate on this historic figure.

This bodes well for the book’s distribution! (Translated with www.DeepL)
