SUMMARY:Mia Dragnic and Pierina Ferretti: "An Expansive Rebellion: Feminism and Social Revolt in Chile"
DESCRIPTION:UCSB and UCSD have joined together to welcome Pierina Ferretti and Mia Dragnic García\, sociologists and doctoral candidates in Latin American Studies at the University of Chile. \nIn October 2019\, Chile experienced its largest social revolt since the return to democracy in 1990. The mobilization\, which began as a spontaneous reaction to protest against a 0.30 USD rise in the Santiago transport fare\, soon after became a widespread outburst against the precarious and unjust conditions that affect the majority of the population after almost fifty years of life under a neoliberal regime. Throughout Chile\, high school and university students\, young precarious professionals\, residents of peripheral neighborhoods\, sectors of a fragile and unstable “middle class”\, soccer hooligans (a symbol of popular and stigmatized youth)\, qualified salaried workers and unqualified\, retirees and older adults\, office workers\, and app workers\, among others\, joined together in mass demonstrations. \nAs an immediate antecedent to this revolt in Chile\, there had been a recent emergence of a new wave of the feminist movement that has since caused a general awareness of sexist violence\, sexual abuse\, and the need for an abortion law\, issues that today they occupy the center of social debate. One can see the underground work that Chilean feminism has carried out for many years and that has gained symbolic capital – this is key to understanding how it has moved from private malaise to collective revolt today. Feminism has acted in Chile as an expansive rebellion\, starting with women and sexual dissidents and has advanced towards the politicization of broad social sectors\, preparing the conditions for mass revolt. \nZoom link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/89256077958?pwd=Mlp2MWFNVENGRTNmZXFIb2k0WE5rZz09 \nPassword: chile \n\nThis event is part of the Feminismos desde abajo\, y hacia el sur/ Feminisms from Below\, and Toward the South series. This speaker series welcomes feminist militants from Latin America to share their perspectives and experiences on building popular power towards a mass feminist movement. Over the past decade\, Latin American feminists have identified manifestations of gender-based oppression under capitalism in everyday women’s conditions in order to successfully mobilize them as part of a political movement. Feminists produce analyses and subsequent strategies around reproductive rights\, resource extractivism\, housing\, debt\, and more. This mass feminism has grown to be arguably the most insurgent political force across the continent.

SUMMARY:Lucía Cavallero: "Gendered Violence and Financialization of Social Reproduction: A Feminist Perspective On Debt"
DESCRIPTION:UCSB and UCSD have joined together to welcome Lucía Cavallero\, a doctoral candidate in Social Sciences at the University of Buenos Aires. \nThe presentation will focus on the relationship between sexist violence and economic violence\, specifically the financialization of life and the increase in gender-based violence. It will highlight the Latin American feminist movement’s struggles against debt as articulated in the tactic of the March 8 International Women’s Day Strike and in Argentina’s Ni Una Menos (Not One Less) movement. \nSee Lucía’s articles “Debt and the Violence of Property” (Verso 2020) and “A feminist perspective on the battle over property” (Feminist Review 2020)\, both co-authored with Verónica Gago. \nZoom link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZElduGopjorEtfsRKUqNx8CcKzu8_VhM43a \nPassword: argentina \n\nThis event is part of the Feminismos desde abajo\, y hacia el sur/ Feminisms from Below\, and Toward the South series.

SUMMARY:Mónica Michelena: "We Are Charrúa Women: From Negation to Re-Existence in Our Body-Territory"
DESCRIPTION:UCSB and UCSD have joined together to welcome Mónica Michelena\, Secretary of the Charrúa Nation’s Council and former Advisor on Indigenous Affairs for Uruguay’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (2014-18). \nCharrúa women have gone through dispossession\, exclusion\, and negation that left marks on their collective memory and body-territory. This genocidal process did not end in 19th-century Uruguay\, but continues today and manifests itself every time that institutions or civil society denies their existence as an indigenous people. For fifteen years\, together with Charrúa sisters from Argentina\, Charrúa women from Uruguay have been working to demolish hegemonic narratives of the market and state. As subjects of legal right\, they are reconfiguring their existence and re-existence in their great ancestral-territory-body. This collective search has led Michelena to academic spaces. \nIn 2011\, Michelena began an investigation with rural Charrúa women in Uruguay’s interior to question the nation-state’s devices of invisibility and to expose counter-memories as part of an attempt to disarm the social and symbolic representation of their extinction. Through a methodological approach based on collaborative ethnography\, Michelena’s research aims to rearm the great quillapí of memory. The metaphor of quillapí – a leather cape made from patchwork – implies that each woman is the bearer of a small piece of memory and\, among all\, they are sewing together its scraps. Down this path\, Charrúa women began to slowly gain recognition from the Uruguayan feminist movement\, in a slow process of internal decolonization. \nZoom link: https://ucsd.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcscu2urjkpEtMCu4cVNRoiyQe_J-RtAr1Y \nPassword: uruguay \n\nThis event is part of the Feminismos desde abajo\, y hacia el sur/ Feminisms from Below\, and Toward the South series.
