8th of March - by Chiara

"I ask myself what feminism is, to myself, to the society, for the people that are around me. Two words keep echoing in my mind: courage and freedom. What is courage, but more importantly what is freedom? I think about the YPJ Fighters, the Partisan Fighters, the queer movement militants, the Chinese pirates of the 17th century, at my grandmothers, at my mother, at my sister... I wonder in an endless universe over my head made of stars and constellations, they are the women that inspired me in these years, with whom I spend austral moments, everyday moments, in my imagination and in the reality. My universe of free and brave women is limitless and in constant evolution, here, you can find a precious and little fragment of it. Together, with courage, we keep fighting for freedom."
