Nuestros cuerpos, sus batallas

For millennia, the body of the woman has been a weapon with which armies, terrorists and militias have humiliated, oppressed and punished their adversaries. Despite the numerous cases of sexual violence, the voices of the protagonists have long been silenced. Long-time war correspondent Christina Lamb chronicles the extraordinary tragedy of war in Our Bodies, Their Battles, focusing on the abuses committed against women and their traumatic consequences for survivors. We will know first-hand the suffering and courage of those who, despite adversity, fight for justice to be done. From the slaves of Southeast Asia during World War II to the young Yazidis sold to the Islamic State, passing through Argentina after the 1976 coup and Bosnia in the 1990s, Lamb gives voice to stories of heroism and resistance that invite us to action.
