Guardianas: Dispatches from the Association of Midwives Rosa Andrade / Despachos de la Asociación de Parteras Rosa Andrade
GUARDIANAS
內容簡介
"A book we need to read, as across the world we face a relentless war against the main conditions of our reproduction." --Silvia Federici, author of Caliban and the Witch and Wages Against Housework
During the twelve-year-long Salvadoran civil war, mothers and guerrilla fighters attended births out of necessity. While fleeing airstrikes, in caves and beneath mango trees, with no electricity or running water, these women became parteras--community midwives--and began to care for pregnant people in rural areas and refugee camps who could not access medical care. In 1994, in the wake of the armed struggle, the Association of Midwives Rosa Andrade (APRA) was born. Compiled from oral histories gathered in 2019 by Salvadoran American birth worker Noemí Delgado, this bilingual anthology weaves together testimonies from twenty members of APRA to tell a collective story of midwifery and community care in revolutionary El Salvador. In Guardianas, the beauty of the testimonies, and the care with which they were collected, come together to safeguard a vision of a world rooted in fierce bravery, dignity, and ancestral wisdom. // Durante los doce años de guerra civil en El Salvador, madres y guerrilleras asistieron a parturientas. Mientras se refugiaban de ataques aéreos, dentro de cuevas y bajo árboles de mango, sin electricidad o agua corriente, estas mujeres vueltas parteras comenzaron a cuidar a personas embarazadas en áreas rurales y campos de refugiados que no podían acceder a cuidado médicos. En 1994, tras la lucha armada, nació la Asociación de Parteras Rosa Andrade (APRA). Compilado de historias orales recolectadas en 2019 por la trabajadora de partos salvadoreña-estadounidense Noemí Delgado, esta antología bilingüe entreteje testimonios de veinte miembros de la APRA para relatar un cuento colectivo de partería y cuidado comunal en El Salvador revolucionario. En Guardianas, la belleza de los testimonios, y el cuidado con el que fueron recolectados, juntos resguardan una visión del mundo enraizado en coraje feroz, dignidad y conocimiento ancestral.
作者介紹
Founded in 1994, the ASSOCIATION OF MIDWIVES ROSA ANDRADE (APRA) is a group of thirty midwives caring for the reproductive health of thousands of people living in thirty-five rural communities in the municipality of Suchitoto, Cuscatlán, El Salvador. Most of the members of APRA either began or continued the work of attending births during the twelve-year-long civil war from 1979 to 1992, when pregnant people in rural areas and guerrilla and refugee camps could not seek medical attention due to the extreme terror inflicted by the US-backed military dictatorship. Rooted in solidarity and a commitment to their communities, the members of APRA continue to care for pregnant, birthing, and postpartum families today. The current members of APRA include: María Melia Martínez Flamenco, Bonifica Ascencio García, María Amalia Molina Menjivar, Fredelinda Antonia Recinos de Cerón, Vicenta Martínez, Ángela Luz Barahona de Ávalos, Cecilia de María Rivera de López, Francisca Catalina Blanco Hernández, Ana Teresa Ávalos, María Higinia "Patricia" Hernández, Tomasa Jovita Torres, Natividad Escobar de Henriquez, Lucía Rutilia González, María Martina Lucero, María Dolores Hernández de Rivera, Vilma Coreas Guzmán, Reina Marlenis Escobar Figueroa, María de los Ángeles Acosta Ardón, Sandra Maricela Flores, María Magdalena Rodas Arias, Dolores Margarita Marroquín de Hernández, Estela Villacorta Rivas, Angélica de la Paz Martínez León, Morena Elí Orellana Menjivar, Sonia Alicia Cruz Montoya, Yessenia de Jesús Canjura Trejo, Pedrina Ángela Calderón, María Antonia Landaverde, Emilia Marinet Sánchez, and Marina Martínez.
