The Redwood Legacy

𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘:

Current decade: 1840s.

𝐓𝐖:

This story is written by an adult who tries to cover conflicts of society depending on their historical contexts. I Won't write about topics that I'm not totally comfortable writing about, especially if I am not minimally informed about them.
There are topics or thoughts that may seem very cliché or old-fashioned, but they are always from the context of an old-fashioned society and not because they are correct.

March 24: National Day of Memory for truth and justice

Today is the day in Argentina to commemorate the victims of the last military dictatorship, self-styled "National Reorganization Process", which usurped the government of the Argentine national state between March 24, 1976 and December 10, 1983. The date highlights the importance of democratic continuity, which in 2023 will be 40 years old.
April 1977, when 14 women gathered for the first time in front of the Casa Rosada to demand information about their sons and daughters who had been kidnapped. They are remembered to this day as the Mothers and Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo.
In times of cloth diapers, the mothers kept the ones their now disappeared children had worn and decided that they would wear them on their heads to recognize themselves in the crowd, becoming their national symbol.
With the restoration of democracy, in December 1983, President Raúl Alfonsín issued the Decree that would later trigger the well-known "THE JUNTAS TRIAL"
This was the first condemnation of State terrorism in Argentina, at the level of the Nuremberg trials, setting a precedent in the continent in view of the horrors experienced.
This is a recent history in the country, our FATHERS, MEN OF 60 YEARS OF AGE went through it, their generation includes the thousands of people who are with us and carry the physical and mental torture of what they suffered.

There are many movies that deal with the themes of these dates:

  • La noche de los lapices (1986)
  • La historia oficial (1985) (With an Oscar)
  • Buenos Aires viceversa (1996)
  • Argentina 1985 (2022) (With an Oscar nomination)

For those who are here and those who are no longer here, we ask for memory, truth and justice.

It was yesterday, but it's never a bad time to remember and reposted this

INTERNATIONAL WOMANS DAY

Today is a day to commemorate the figure and history of women that was so much displaced and ignored over the centuries. I as a cis man must accompany from a secondary place.

For my part I want to show more about the history of my country and I thought it was good to share Important and iconic women of Latin American history, specifically Argentina.

Mariquita J. P. Sánchez de Thompson. 1786-1868

Daughter of the Buenos Aires aristocracy, remembered in the Argentine tradition as the "Great National Hostess" for her gatherings where the National Anthem was sung for the first time in her home. He refused an advantageous marriage to marry his cousin, his entire story could be a novel by Jane Austen.
She managed for women to reflect on topics forbidden to them at that time. She embraced freedom, celebrated the revolution of 1810, defended education for women and was part of the Society of Beneficence of Buenos Aires.

Felicitas A. G. Guerrero. 1846-1872

She is the most dramatic murder story in Argentine history. She married for convenience when she was 18 and her husband 50.. At only 25 years old, she became an extremely wealthy widow, owner of large fields in the province. Her youth, beauty and heritage made her one of the most desired women of the time.
Enrique Ocampo was from a well-known aristocratic family and was attracted to her although Felicitas never took an interest in him. She met Samuel Sáenz Valiente, who would be her fiancé in 1872. A big engagement party was held at the Guerrero family home. The young woman was intercepted in her bedroom by Ocampo.
Unable to persuade her to marry, he drew a gun on her. She wanted to leave the room and when she turned around she was shot in the back and fell to the floor. There are two versions of what happened next: They say that Ocampo committed suicide and another that Felicitas' brother and cousin killed him.

Cecilia Grierson. 1859-1934.

She was the first female doctor in Argentina. Teacher, doctor, tireless educator, she was a pioneer in the field of obstetrics, kinesiology, first aid diffusion and much more.
From a family of Scottish immigrants, at 14 years old she had to take care of a rural school that his mother had to open to support the whole family. In 1874 when a friend became ill, Cecilia wanted to find the remedy to cure her of a chronic disorder.
Armed with an iron will, she was admitted to medicine and graduated in 1889. She worked at the San Roque Hospital where she was a gynecologist and obstetrician but not a surgeon, a specialty that was denied because she was a woman, despite having the qualification to practice that specialty,

Julieta Lantari. 1873-1932

She was the first woman to vote in Argentina and Latin America. Founder of the National Feminist Party, she was a banner in the struggle for women’s rights.
She was the first woman to enter and graduate from the Colegio Nacional de La Plata, exclusively for boys. In 1896 he applied to the dean of the Faculty of Medicine for a degree and graduated from pharmaceuticals in 1898. She denounced the inhuman conditions of women workers, demanded the right to divorce, pursued equal rights at all levels, political, legal, labor and civil.
She was the first woman candidate for deputy in Argentina, for the National Feminist Party. although by law she could't accede to the position. She promised to fight to sanction maternity leave, to grant a child allowance, etc.

María Angélica Barreda. 1882-1963.

She was the first lawyer in Argentina. At the age of 23, she graduated as a lawyer from the Faculty of Legal and Social Sciences in 1909. She wasn't allowed to practice as a lawyer because they thought she had a capitis deminutio, (a decrease in capacity by nature,because she was a woman.)
Persons with authority were against her. At that time there was no law that could defend it, invoked in self-defense the Constitution which guarantees the freedom to learn without discrimination according to gender. The Supreme Court eventually authorized her to enroll and swear as a lawyer.
She was an activist in the struggle for women’s rights and participated in the Association of Argentine University Women. One of his many phrases was: "You can not go back to destroy a conquest. The woman has won her position and no one can hinder her passage".

Amalia Celia Figueredo de Pietra. 1895-1985.

She was the first female aviator in Latin America. She was born in Santa Fé, Argentina. At the age of 19 he moved near the Villa Lugano airfield, where he met the famous aviator Jorge Newbery with whom he made his first flight. He scored in May of that year at the San Fernando School of Aviation.
In September 1914 he attempted a first exam but had an accident. It is said that 48 hours before he was loosened the tensioners of his plane, so being seventy meters high he lost control but managed to descend slowly. In October she showed what she knew how to do. With a fluency that surprised the examiners. Amalia became the first female pilot in Argentina and South America. At that time, there was hardly any lady driving in the streets.
In 1916 he married Alejandro Pietra and from there he devoted himself to the raising of children. Although she was widowed in 1928, she had been in charge of her two children. She never left the aeronautical activity.

Finlandia Pizzul. 1902-1987.

She was the first female architect of Argentina in 1929. Filandia, like other pioneering women in the profession, was very active in the Central Society of Architects. According to her the woman was more prepared for the domestic architecture, however she worked and was director of areas of public agencies that were not dedicated to the housing, also projected hospitals
Among other positions she held were Director General of Workshops and Conservation of the Ministry of Public Health of the Nation and Director General of Conservation of the Ministry of Public Works of the Nation.
"The woman is well aware of the needs of the household. She knows perfectly what are the indispensable needs, what aesthetics; it is she who spends most of the hours inside her house. The man is a character of the callus"

Victoria Ocampo 1890-1979

R. Victoria E. Ocampo was an Argentine writer, essayist, translator, editor, philanthropist and patron. She published books such as La laguna de los nenúfares. was one of the great protagonists of the culture of the Twentieth Century.

She voiced her voice in the face of injustices and persecutions of all kinds, encouraged discussions and projects aimed at encouraging dialogue between cultures, fought for gender equality, tolerance and peace in a world convulsed by violence.

Casa Tow Set

The youthful free spirit of the 1920s has been displaced to make room for the serious, hard-working, masculine sims that every home needs. There is no reason why he can't enjoy the comfort of a new suit. The lady, bearer of good taste and elegance, can bring her wit and good taste to choose the fabric of her husband's suit without undermining the masculine seriousness.

Casa Tow, an important department store like Gath & Chaves, has for you new suits that add the illusion of height and width, with wide, padded shoulders, high lapels and matching mid-length vests.

Redwood Manor, Bedlington, Brindleton Bay 1842.

New Year’s celebrations arrived in Bedlington, Redwood Manor was filled with ostentatious decorations and mistletoe everywhere as a way to say goodbye to the year and celebrate a warm evening in this cold winter.
The Redwoods were dressed in their traditional red, proud to see the family reunited once again as in the old days.
This year they also invited Edgar, Clara and their families to join the dinner. The younger members of the family came to celebrate as well, John was happy to be able to play with his cousins, he loved entertaining little Greenland and Lucile along with Suzette.
Madeleine and Wendla joined each other at the diningroom, it was a coincidence of life that both were pregnant almost at the same time, so they could talk about how they were coping with the pregnancy, both couples were very anxious about the arrival of future heirs.

A golden figures full of lace and ribbons appeared through the front door of Redwood Manor, it was Evie, the little Cynthia and her family wearing her new dress to match her stepmother's, although she looked like the color was more striking for someone so shyly knowing her family-in-law.
Rose and Violet welcomed Evangeline warmly, the family hadn't been together for the holidays in so long that it seemed to be all cause for happiness at these winter festivities.
They also noted the presence of the younger guests of the Cushing family, Robert had grown so much since he had last seen his grandmother and great aunt. Aunt Violet was always so cheerful to see him, which along with Cynthia's presence didn't seem to make much of a distinction between the two of them.

As expected, Evangeline whispered to her mother about the surprise guest. Rose knew about August's daughter's situation, but she had been impressed by the affectionate detail of matching dresses between them.

Evie wouldn't have insisted on imitating her distinctive color, but it was a whole new world for the child, and she wanted her to understand her place in the family.

Boneville Residence, Brindleton Bay 1842.

Once August down the stairs to receive the untimely visitors, August was paralyzed by surprise to see who it was. Evie was standing and waiting for her husband to explain what was happening here.

August: Hyacynth? Is it really you? You’ve disappeared since I left for the war.

Hyacynth: I have been living with my family in Henford almost 10 years ago, they thought it was easier if I stopped writing to you. But we agree that I should introduce you to Chyntia.

August needed no further explanation of what was happening, he bent over to be able to better observe Cynthia. The little girl looked a lot like her mother, although her eyebrow shape and cheekbones were identical to his.

He couldn’t believe it was happening, he was looking his own offspring in the eye. Despite everything, August didn't avoid the urge to hug the little one.

While that act of affection was taking place, Evangeline tried not to see the girl, least of all her husband.

August had a bastard daughter she didn’t know about? I didn’t know how to react.

The Bonevilles watched the whole situation from afar. If leaving the mourning for Francis already caused controversy with his in-laws, a bastard daughter would only make everything even more tense.

Boneville Residence, Brindleton Bay 1842.

The unexpected arrival of an illegitimate daughter of August caused a stir throughout that day.

The law denied Cynthia’s mother any rights over her when she turned 9, she was obliged to give it to her father if he so wished. By law the father was to take care of her education or pay §25 (§1125 current simoleons) a week as maintenance.

Robert was very confused by everything that was going on, being a spoiled child with a good family he had never seen or imagined anything like this.

He tried to ask Evangeline what was going to happen now, but she couldn’t give him any certainty because she didn’t know either.

August eventually agreed to educate Cynthia, giving her the surname Cushing, a bed in the Boneville Mansion, providing her with education and a considerable dowry.

The poor girl was left with only a old chest with her old clothes, a teddy bear and a silhouette of her mother’s profile.

Robert didn't accept the idea of sharing a bedroom with his new stepsister, he believed that she would take away everything he had and also his peace of mind as an only child.

Cynthia was a very ill-mannered child, so she was not afraid to respond to Robert’s offenses and labeled him a snob and spoiled boy of luxuries.
