Strength in Unity

Description

This mural with the additional title: "Abilities don't depend on your gender", was made years ago in 2018.

Located on the exterior wall of the La Concepción municipal sports center, in the Ciudad Lineal district, this mural was created in September 2018 by the Spanish art collective Unlogic Crew. It serves as a statement against gender-based violence through the depiction of several women who, throughout history, have fought to raise awareness and give women a voice in social, family, and economic spheres, breaking down barriers and becoming role models in the defense of women and equality.

With the slogan “Abilities don’t depend on your gender,” the mural features 15 women:

Mexican activist Comandanta Ramona,

African American activist Rosa Parks,

Spanish poet and rapper Gata Cattana,

American singer, songwriter, and pianist Nina Simone,

Soviet sniper Lyudmila Pavlichenko, who fought against the Nazis,

American actress Emma Stone playing former tennis player Billie Jean King,

Japanese journalist Kanno Sugako,

Mexican painter and activist Frida Kahlo,

Russian anarchist activist Emma Goldman,

Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie,

Soviet cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova,

African American politician and activist Angela Davis,

Spanish feminist activist Rosa Arauzo, a resident of Ciudad Lineal and advocate for women’s equality,

Spanish anarcho-syndicalist activist and anti-Franco fighter Antònia Fontanillas Borràs,

and Guatemalan indigenous leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Rigoberta Menchú
