Episode 75 - Las Historias de las Putas

I can't decide what translates better into "bitches" for our purposes, perras or putas. The patriarchy would call us whores AND bitches, so take your pick. (If you're a Spanish speaker, please let me know which is a better translation!) Anyway, September is Hispanic Culture Month, so we are discussing 2 supremely badass women in this episode. One is called the first Latina feminist, and she was WAY ahead of her time! The other is one you've definitely heard of, but I bet there's stuff you didn't know!

Om Podcasten

Welcome to Bitchstory! We are uncovering history's forgotten heroines and badasses. Most of the women covered on this show have been left out of the history books for reasons you can guess. Some are names you know, some are women that history has completely snubbed. We are revising history to be fun, inclusive, entertaining, and of course, feminist as f*ck!
