Simple Women in Extraordinary Times

Last weekend I went to Caixa's Cultural Centre and saw a great exhibition called Simple Women in Extraordinary Times. The idea was to give women from Brazil, Cuba, Israel and Palestine a camera to shoot what they loved and what the hated. The result was followed by an interview and is kindly (and sometimes strongly) touching.

E.g.: Abiail, from Brasília, talking about she loved, said:
"To get married to the partner I choose. To see my children well, and with a conscient and independent sense of freedom. To travel heaps. To live in a better country, where citizenship, conscience, solidarity and cooperation thrive. I want to be kissed when I'm 80."

In the International Women's Day, I'd like to thank all the determined, loving and inspirational women for their example and wish every single woman strength to keep fighting for their rights and the respect they deserve, so we can build our own destiny our way.
