LOS BILLONARIOS DESAPARECEN... Ya está en Amazon. En Kindle, audiolibro y pasta blanda. Una ficción que inicia con una frase feliz de Mandela: "Era imposible, hasta que sucedió..."

No. TÚ escribes "destruir un museo", "muchos predios", "imponer". TÚ.

Oye @grok, ¿cuántas actividades abiertas al público hay en La casa del poeta Ramón López Velarde; cuánta gente asiste; y quién paga sus gastos?

¿Destruir un museo? ¿Hay muchos predios? ¿Imponer gustos? ¿Si sabes que inventas?

¿Y qué dices de tener ciertas horas para cabaret en medio de la Casa del Poeta? Mi opinión es que lo que le falta a la Cultura en México son públicos.

Gracias. Quiero hacer una tarde a la semana un taller de traslado de historias a dramas.

¿Cuáles son las docenas de espacios p el cabaret público? ¿De veras el viernes, sábado y domingo a las 8 PM la Casa del Poeta no puede tener cabaret? Te leo con cuidado. Pero leí también a los que descalificaron el cabaret --por razones muy tontas. Lo que digo es que en la cultura tendríamos que ser más creativos que en la política, porque no tratamos de capturar puestos, y podríamos ampliar espacios y públicos.

Toma mucho tiempo volverlo simple.

She was 57 years old. White hair. No carefully managed image. No media training designed to make her more palatable. Just thirty years of accumulated knowledge and the calm, unhurried authority of a woman who had spent her life mastering her subject. She sat on a BBC panel, answered questions about immigration and politics, cited evidence, made arguments — and then went home. The next morning, her inbox looked like a crime scene. Her name is Mary Beard — Cambridge professor, classicist, one of the most respected scholars of ancient Rome and Western civilisation alive. And the internet had decided that a woman speaking with quiet authority on television needed to be punished for it. The messages were not criticism. They were not debate. They were rape threats. Death threats. Coordinated campaigns of personal destruction targeting her appearance, her age, her voice — anything that could be used to remind her that spaces like the one she had just occupied were not meant for her. Most people would have gone quiet. Mary Beard went further in. She did what scholars do when they find a pattern that disturbs them: she followed it backward. Through decades. Through centuries. Through millennia. All the way back to some of the oldest texts in Western civilisation. And she found it had always been there. In Homer's Odyssey — one of the foundational works of Western literature, nearly three thousand years old — there is a scene that most readers pass over without registering its quiet violence. Penelope comes downstairs and asks the poet to sing a different song. Her own son, Telemachus, cuts her off. He orders her back to her room and tells her plainly: speech is the business of men. She goes. Mary Beard read that scene and recognized it immediately. Not as ancient history. As a pattern. In ancient Rome, women who dared to speak in public were not described as orators or thinkers. They were described as noise — disorderly sound, something that did not deserve to be called language or argument. Their voices were not speech. Their thoughts were not thoughts. In the medieval world, women who claimed public authority were labeled as witches. Elizabeth I — Queen of England, ruler of a nation — had to rhetorically reshape herself into something masculine just to be taken seriously as the leader of her own country. The silencing of women who speak with authority was not invented by social media. It was not a modern pathology or a cultural accident. It was built deliberately, over centuries, into the very foundations of how Western civilisation defined who gets to speak, what authority sounds like, and who is allowed to take up space in public life. Mary Beard had found something important. In 2017, she published Women & Power: A Manifesto — short enough to read in an afternoon, substantial enough to reframe everything you thought you understood about why this keeps happening. Her argument was precise and devastating. The problem is not that women lack the ability to lead. The problem is that the model of leadership itself — the template for what public authority looks, sounds, and feels like — was built by men over centuries and has never been redesigned. When a woman enters public life and doesn't fit that template, she is not failing. The template was never built for her. It was built specifically to exclude her, and it has been doing exactly that, efficiently and continuously, for three thousand years. The solution, Beard argued, is not to teach women to perform power the way men have always performed it. The solution is to dismantle and rebuild the very concept of what power is allowed to look like. She kept teaching. She kept writing. She kept appearing on television — white-haired, unhurried, carrying her decades of authority without performing it, without packaging it for comfort, without apologizing for it. The threats continued. But other messages began arriving too. Letters from women and girls who had spent their entire lives feeling that every door was slightly too narrow, every table slightly too high, every room slightly reluctant to make space for them. Women who had spent years wondering what was wrong with them — why they couldn't quite fit, couldn't quite belong, couldn't quite be taken seriously no matter how much they knew or how hard they worked. They read the book and understood, perhaps for the first time, that nothing had ever been wrong with them. The room had been designed without them in mind. That is not a personal failing. That is a three-thousand-year-old architectural decision. And one Cambridge professor with white hair and a calm voice — who refused to go quiet when the internet told her to — spent her career documenting it, naming it, and handing that knowledge to everyone who needed to hear it. Telemachus told Penelope that speech was the business of men. He was wrong then. He is still wrong now. And Mary Beard has three thousand years of evidence to prove it. via The Inspireist #FeministFriday #HERstory

¿Qué te pasa, pequeño hombrecito?

¿Con quién hablo?

El Antiguo teatro arlequin frente al monumento a la madre, ya hay permisos y proyecto falta $$

Oigan, a propósito de espacios. Busco un espacio para abrir un taller. Un escenario y lugares para 100 de público. Algo por Reforma. ¿Me aconsejan?
