Sociedad Femenil Rosa Luxemburgo Escuela de Derecho. Universidad de Chihuahua (1967-1968)

Abstract

The Female Society Rosa Luxemburgo was founded in School of Law of Universidad de Chihuahua (1966) by young students identified with a left political line. Some of them were previously assigned to another political group, but decided to create an exclusive group of women to vindicate themselves, since otherwise their participation was limited. The clarity of positioning women and giving them a central role was always present in their processes. Las Rosas (as they were called) was in charge of promoting political and study actions aimed at increasing female participation in a more equal environment, in addition to supporting and get involved with the operation of armed groups in Chihuahua between 1965 and 1972. This article is part of a larger investigation into the operation of armed groups in Chihuahua, entitled Estaban ahí. Las mujeres en los grupos armados de Chihuahua.
