"The REVOLUCIONARIAS collection wants to show the important work that many Latin American women have done throughout history. Each book in this collection wants to highlight the work of a woman who fought for her ideals, at a specific historical moment. Thanks to them we are better. Thanks to them we live in a better world. Thanks to them we live in a world where there is more equality. Thanks to them, today's women can live with greater freedom. Revolutionaries: The women you should know about Latin America from colonization to the present day. María Cano was a woman who broke molds. She was a different woman. She was a woman who worked so that other people could live better. She fought for other women. María Cano was a Colombian thinker and politician who, at a time when women had no voice or representation in society, raised hers in the fight for the rights of workers and women. A victim of political persecution, María fought tirelessly so that the most humble, the exploited and those without resources could live a better life.
