Ciclo: “Feminismos que transforman: debates sobre el Uruguay que queremos”

“Feminisms that Transform: Debates on the Uruguay We Want” Meeting: “Women and Daughters During State Terrorism: Memories, Bodies, and Resistance” This event aims to open a feminist, political, and intergenerational conversation about state terrorism in Uruguay and its impact on the lives of girls, young women, and women. Memory doesn't live only in dates or names. It is also transmitted through bodies, children, motherhood, prison visits, letters, exile, absences, silences, family members, and the everyday ways of sustaining life during captivity. Thinking about memory from a feminist perspective allows us to broaden our understanding of recent history. It is not about adding a "women's issue" to a story already written, but about looking at the experience of state terrorism in a different way: its specific violence, its effects on daily life, its forms of discipline and also the resistances that made it possible to sustain life, denunciation, the search for justice and the transmission of memory.
