Julio: Soy Maria Adelaida de Bogota-Colombia. No se que pasa, pero este mensaje siempre me rebota. Y creo tener bien su direccion: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lo que le queria decir es que si me llego su articulo. Gracias Estoy de acuerdo con usted en que el hecho de que "el ambiente" y "las mujeres" tengan sus propias instituciones, esto hace que muchas veces en otras instituciones se dejen de lado, al pensar que "eso lo hacen otros". De lo que se trata mas bien es que esas instituciones especializadas en ambiente y en mujer busquen permear de alguna forma a las otras. > > > > > En cuanto al tema de genero, desafortunadamente en muchos ambitos aun se piensa que si uno esta hablando de tener perspectiva de genero es que uno es feminista radical, y lo miran como bicho raro. Para mi personalmente ha sido un poco dificil decir que yo trabajo con perspectiva de genero o que mi tesis va a tener esta perspectiva, o que va a trabajar variables de genero. Algunas personas me dicen que no sea tan feminista, otras que o me olvide de los hombres. Esta no es la cuestion. El punto no es que los hombres estan en un lado de la lona y las mujeres en otra, y que usted se debe decidir por uno de ellos. La cuestion es resaltar las diferencias, y que ahi mismo esta el encanto y las inmensas posibilidades para lograr una vida mejor (llamese sostenible, si se quiere). Pero tambien es reconocer que hay inequidades (que son diferentes a las diferencias biologicas, culturales y sociales), no solo para la mujer, sino tambien para el hombre. > > > > > Como yo lo estoy empezando a ver, la perspectiva de genero no es solo estudios de mujeres, tambien es de hombres. El genero no es solo femenino, tambien es masculino. > > > > > Me alegra muchisimo que un hombre escriba algo sobre este cuento. Usted es uno de los pocos hombres que conozco, que se interesa en el tema. > > > > > > > > > > Hasta pronto > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > maria adelaida farah q. Bogota-Colombia >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 12 14:29:13 1995 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 12 Oct 95 16:28:47 PDT Subject: Feminist Majority Online -- Expo '96 (long post) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Feminist Majority Online -- http://www.feminist.org IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE FEMINIST MAJORITY FOUNDATION SAVE THE DATE! EXPO �96 FOR WOMEN�S EMPOWERMENT FEBRUARY 2-4, 1996 WASHINGTON, D.C. Dear Friend, The women's movement is coming together for the first-ever National Feminist Exposition: Expo `96 for Women's Empowerment. The Feminist Majority Foundation and a growing list of 62 co-sponsoring organizations dedicated to the empowerment of women would like to invite you to join us for this innovative exposition for the entire feminist community, to be held at the Sheraton Washington Hotel in Washington, DC, on February 2-4, 1996. At this Expo `96, we want the nation to see the power of the feminist movement and its ideas, its vision, and the diversity of its work and constituencies. We intend to ignite the women's movement on the fight to save affirmative action; to adopt a feminist national budget for the United States; and to plan for a massive feminist exposition to be held in the year 2000. The Feminist Majority Foundation is investing in this new undertaking for the feminist movement because we think it is time, as we prepare to enter a new millennium, for both the nation and ourselves to see the vast diversity and power of the present day women's movement together -- under one roof. For the Expo `96 for Women's Empowerment, we are inviting women's organizations with a wide array of constituencies, services, and programs dedicated to changing the world for women and girls. We are inviting women's groups and women activists from all arenas of life -- social, economic, and political -- to share their accomplishments and visions. Expo `96 will act as a forerunner for a large-scale exposition scheduled for the year 2000. Participation in Expo `96 will provide organizations and activists the opportunity to be involved in shaping Expo 2000, which will be a major exposition open to the public, featuring the accomplishments and visions of the feminist movement for the 21st century. Expo `96 is timed to take place at the beginning of the election season so the feminist movement as a whole can help frame the national debate on affirmative action. Women must not be left out of this debate. And we plan to build on the momentum of the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women and Beyond in Beijing -- to help make its Platform for Action a reality. One of the primary goals of Expo `96 for Women's Empowerment is to develop and adopt a feminist national budget. We have seen the President's Budget, the House Budget, the Senate Budget, but we have not seen a feminist budget. We must not enter the 21st century watching women's programs being defunded, the military budgets being as bloated as ever, the interest on the national debt ever-increasing, and our movement, group by group, speaking only to very small percentages of the budget. I know that all of our schedules are extremely busy, especially in this year when our agenda is under massive attack by the Right Wing. Literally, the wolves are at our door: opponents are seeking to defund family planning and the Violence Against Women Act, to eliminate women's and multi-cultural studies at colleges and universities, to gut affirmative action programs and Title IX. Program by program, we are on the defensive. Expo `96 will help us rise together as a whole, feel our strength and the strength of our ideas, galvanize the strategy to put our opponents on the defensive and frame the debate. Participation in Expo `96 will be an exciting, new experience. Our Exhibit Hall will be innovative and will feature high-tech solutions to organizing modern women in the 21st century to visualize the feminist future. The four corners of the Hall will feature: Organizing for Feminism -- On-line and Worldwide and will encourage women's organizations to develop home pages and enter the Internet; Women in the 1996 Olympics -- Organizing for Equality; Feminist Architecture -- How Feminists are Designing a Modern World for Equality; and a Feminist Career Center. We hope all types of feminist organizations and ideas from all sectors of our society will participate in Expo `96, as we build a national budget and mobilize to keep the doors open for women, and visualize a feminist future. We hope you will join us on February 2-4, 1996, in this exciting, new adventure for women's empowerment. Alice Cohan and Dee Martin will serve as Director and Assistant Director, respectively, of Expo `96. Please return the form below by mail, fax or e-mail as soon as possible.
