Asmita Resource Centre for Women
On February 14, Hyderabad will join the world in One Billion Rising (https://www.facebook.com/events/145959545561799/?ref=22), an international campaign fighting violence against women.
In preparation fot the rally, we will be screening "In the Time of the Butterflies". The story is a fictionalized account of the lives of the Mirabal sisters, Dominican revolutionary activists, who opposed the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo and were assassinated on November 25, 1960. They were feminist symbols for their country then, and are feminist symbols for the world now.
Discussion will follow!
