Carmen is State vice president of the Asociación Gitanas Feministas Por La Diversidad.
The group of founding women of Gitanas Feministas is dedicated to gathering information about the feminist movement in general, analysing its benefits and shortcomings. Always being aware that for the construction of a gypsy feminist intellectual current there would be elements and lines of “payo feminism” that would be incompatible with their discourse.
They were also aware that without a historical basis for the feminist movement and struggle, their speech would be diminished, so their first task was to draw up a meticulous and conscientious analysis, using material and documentation from feminism in Spain and other countries.
