Under Milei, Rural Feminists Fight for Rights and Resources
A feminist community radio station in Argentina has changed rural women's lives, but right-wing government threatens its existence.
Corrientes, Argentina—Estela Maris Ojeda leaned over a hardy harvest table, rummaging through a cardboard box filled with transparent bags of beautiful loot: beet, bean, butter lettuce, pea, and chicory seeds, all for crops that she tends to on the verdant plot of land she inherited from her parents in the arid Argentine province of Corrientes.
“I learned very young that everything is born out of this—seeds,” said Ojeda , a grandmother who hosts a seed exchange several times a year with fellow farmers.
