Paperback. 1. ed. en espa?ol. Cream octavo with orange and green pictorial wraps; 216 pages: illustrations, map; 21 cm. Scarce thus, in Spanish; translated from the English. "Benedita da Silva, nacida el 11 de Marzo de 1943, crece en las favelas de Rio de Janeiro en el seno de una familia de trece hijos. Su vida transcurre en una probeza estremecedora. Dos de sus cuatro hijos mueren de enfermedades curables, y ella sobrevive apenas a un aborto mal practicado y sufra la explotacion y la humillacion como sirvienta de planta. Sin embargo, Benedita es una luchadora. Organiza a los vecinos de la favela para obtener agua, alcantarillado y electricidad; aprende a leer y a escrebir y se dedica a ensenar a otras mujeres. En 1982 da el gran paso de postularse para un puesto politico en Rio de Janeiro, como candidata del Partido de los Trabajadores; se convierte asi en la primera consejera ciudadana negra. En 1986, gana las elecciones para disputada federal y actualmente es senadora. Ha luchado contra los ominosos obstaculos de raza, genero y pobreza con creatividad y encanto y, como ella dice, ha salido victoriosa." -- Back cover. Prologue by Rev.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The first black woman from a favela to become a congresswoman and a senator in Brazil, Benedita da Silva has overcome an intimidating range of social obstacles. Born into a poor slum-dwelling family, she became a councillor in Rio, then a Federal Deputy and is now a congresswoman for the PT (Workers Party). Yet her political career gives only some idea of the richness of her life experience. In this autobiography she talks of her love and family life and how the vicissitudes of being one of Brazil's many poor black women have shaped her political beliefs and action. Through describing her family, her husbands, her children and grandchildren, we see the woman who still lives in the favela where she has spent most of her life, the woman who has fought poverty, racism and exculsion. This is a first hand account of the most pressing social problems in Brazil: indigenous rights, street children, land and racism. Her activism, from her days as a favela organizer to national politician, reflects the most pressing concerns of Brazil's poor majority.…
