Based in La Paz, artist collective Mujeres Creando employ a variety of tactics and media to engage the public in their feminist movement. For more than two decades, the collective have promoted solidarity through zines, public performance, protests, and events hosted at their café. In this video, the group spreads their message on their pirate station Radio Deseo, and by tagging bold, topical questions and aphorisms on the streets of the city, ensuring maximum visibility of their speech. Though Mujeres Creando combat patriarchal norms at large in Latin America, their work is particularly important in Bolivia, where a federal government lurching toward progress does little to combat the day-to-day violence and injustice against women in local penal systems.
