¿Será que soy feminista?
Alma Guillermoprieto

NONFICTION | 2020 | 120 pages

After years of work, the prestigious journalist finds herself wondering whether she’s a feminist. The path to finding the answer is a mirror every reader should approach.

In this lucid essay, Alma Guillermoprieto finds herself questioning her own feminism. Her doubts are at once a journey through her thoughts, memories, and a series of experiences that garner new meaning with the current resurgence of the women’s revolution: #MeToo, new masculinities, ethics.

With her exceptional knowledge of Latin America’s reality, the author writes a profound reflection about what it means to be feminist in a violent and patriarchal continent where women who have lost land, their children, and their husbands have to defend their lives and those of other women like them. Her approach to feminism is similar to her approach to journalism: free of doctrine, filled with questions, and supplied with the necessary clues to find answers.

“Guillermoprieto is an extraordinary journalist who we should learn from when it comes to that conscientious humanity that has turned her job into a service for the broken mirrors of a society that she looks upon with passion.”
