Por Irma Gallo Conocí a Sonia Higuera en 2020, en plena pandemia, en un taller de lectura y escritura alrededor de la obra de seis escritoras que impartí en línea en la Casa Universitaria del Libro cuando la directora todavía era la escritora y académica Rosa Beltrán.

This Month in History - April
This is quite a month for landmark pop culture anniversaries. Here are some I’m celebrating: 
April 1, 2003: Elephant released
Tumblr media
In April 2003, The White Stripes’ 4th album was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. Happy 20th Elephant!
April 3, 1968: 2001: A Space Odyssey opens
Tumblr media
In April 1968, Stanley Kubrick’s sci-fi epic was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. A few months after I wrote that piece, I saw it in 70mm at Coolidge Corner Theatre for it’s 50th anniversary and I named it my #1 Movie-Going Event of 2018. Happy 55th 2001!
April 12, 1983: Murmur released
Tumblr media
In April 1983, R.E.M.’s debut album was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. Happy 40th Murmer!
April 12, 1988: Even Worse released
Tumblr media
In April 1988, Weird Al Yankovic’s 5th studio album was released. The album cover and title was a parody of Michael Jackson’s Bad, and the hit single “Fat” was a parody of “Bad”. Following the “Beat It” parody “Eat It”, Al was able to have a second chance at parodying MJ. Of all of Al’s albums this stands as one of my favorites of his. It is LOL funny without a single curse word or offending anyone. The album closer “Good Old Days” made me laugh so hard I cried many a time. Happy 35th Even Worse.
April 12, 2013: Mosquito released
Tumblr media
In April 2013, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs 4th album was released. I named it my #1 Album of 2013. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. Happy 10 Mosquito!
April 13, 1978: Dawn of the Dead opens
Tumblr media
In April 1978, George A. Romero delivered a zombie movie ten years after his landmark Night of the Living Dead. Hands down one of the best sequels ever. Each of Romero’s Dead movies has a social commentary and this one takes on consumerism in a shopping mall. It also spawned the 2004 remake, which is quite a worthy remake, even though it can’t hold a candle to the original (I got both DVDs sitting next to each other in my movie collection). Happy 45th DOTD!
April 14, 1983: Let’s Dance released
Tumblr media
In April 1983, David Bowie’s 15th album was released. He had been releasing albums since the late 60s, but this new one produced with Nile Rodgers fit right in with the new wave dance pop of that era. It also features then unknown guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan on guitar. This album was my intro to Bowie (this and the next album’s “Blue Jean”), but upon discovering Bowie’s 70s work, this album might not be as revolutionary as Ziggy Stardust or Hunky Dory, but I’d easily rank this in my Top 5 Bowie Albums based on the sheer amount of 5 star hits. Happy 40th Let’s Dance!
April 20, 1993: Get a Grip released
Tumblr media
In April 1993, Aerosmith’s 11th album was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. Happy 30th Get a Grip!
April 21, 1978: I Wanna Hold Your Hand opens
Tumblr media
In April 1978, Robert Zemeckis’s debut film was released. In 2017, my short film The Beatles Boston played at the Mendon Twin Drive-In between I Wanna Hold Your Hand and A Hard Day’s Night. I was truly honored! Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. Happy 45th IWHYH!
April 23, 1993: Who’s the Man? opens
Tumblr media
In April 1993, Ted Demme’s debut feature film was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018. Happy 30th WTM!
April 29, 1983: Valley Girl opens
Tumblr media
In April 1983, one of my favorite 80s teen movies was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2018 and here is my blu-ray review from 2018. Happy 40th Valley Girl!
April 29, 2003: Fever to Tell released
Tumblr media
Speaking of YYY, their debut album was released in April 2003. Here is my piece I wrote in 2013. Happy 20th Fever to Tell!

Her powerful conservative politician husband, stole her property, had her sent to prison, and subjected to humiliating strip searches when she filed grievances at government offices, but this Mexican Feminist, advocate for single mothers, refused to be intimidated, no matter what outfit she was wearing. She proved that whatever patriarchy might wish, women are still a threat even in their underwear.
Martha Patricia Romero García arrived early at the Government Palace of Veracruz during the "Open Doors Mondays" citizen assistance program. She undressed, leaving only her underwear, in protest against the slow progress of ministerial investigations and to demand help because her husband had stripped her of her belongings.
Slowly, she removed her clothing in front of the Secretary of Government's desk and shouted that the Attorney General's Office had ignored her complaints.
"I have to do this for them to listen to me, for them to see me. Do you want to vote for PAN (National Action Party)? Why? So they can destroy single mothers," she shouted, accusing her husband Felipe de Jesús Saldaña, an alleged member of the PAN, of also wanting to take away their daughter.
"Do you think the PAN has the right to mock everyone? And if you claim to be PAN supporters, do you think PAN is good? Well, let me tell you, they are a bunch of sons of b..., sellouts who abuse all single and unprotected women," she added.
The woman explained that her husband had stripped her of all her belongings, and her salary of seven thousand pesos, which she earns at the Ministry of Finance and Planning, is not enough for her to survive.
The dissatisfied woman denounced that her husband, "in collusion with PAN leaders," has done everything to ruin her by accusing her of defamation, which led her to prison in 2007. She was subjected to various abuses in prison. And her prison record was used as an excuse to subject her to strip searches whenever she entered official government buildings, so she could not hide any "dangerous materials" in her clothing.
In a courageous act of resistance and defiance, Martha Patricia Romero García, a strong-willed woman, decided to break free from the clutches of an oppressive marriage to Felipe de Jesús Saldaña, a prominent figure in the conservative PAN (National Action Party). With unwavering determination, she confronted the unjust treatment and abuse she endured, refusing to be silenced any longer.
Standing before the world, Martha boldly questioned the authority of the PAN and its supporters. Her words resonated with the frustration and anger felt by countless women who have suffered under the oppressive grip of patriarchal power structures.
Martha's ordeal extended beyond emotional abuse and psychological manipulation. Her powerful conservative husband subjected her to humiliating strip searches whenever she visited the government building to file her complaints. Stripped down to her underwear, she experienced the dehumanizing tactics employed to suppress her voice and deter her from seeking justice. But Martha refused to be intimidated. She saw through the façade of control and emerged stronger, ready to challenge the system that had allowed such mistreatment to persist.
Her decision to make a defiant feminist stand for the rights of single mothers was nothing short of inspiring. In an act of symbolic resistance, Martha shed her clothes, standing tall and unapologetic in nothing but her bra and panties. It was a powerful statement, reclaiming her autonomy and demanding recognition for the struggles faced by single mothers everywhere.
Martha's bravery has shed light on the urgent need for change within conservative power structures. Her story serves as a rallying cry for justice, urging society to confront the abuse and discrimination faced by single mothers. Her determination to challenge the authoritarian government demonstrates the strength of women who refuse to be silenced and demand equality.
