Rincones de añoranzas

Hay rincones, en las aldeas, en los pueblos, en las ciudades, que uno no olvida, acaso porque fueron paisaje de la niñez, de la adolescencia o de la juventud, o probablemente por ser la antigua ruta a la escuela y a lejanos destinos, o quizá por tratarse de espacios y callejuelas que recorrimos con nuestros familiares y amigos en otras estaciones de la existencia, o tal vez por quedar, tras la caminata de las manecillas, con el perfume de un romance añejo que provocó alegría e ilusiones. Existen sitios en los que caímos, seguramente desgarrados, y otros, en cambio, en los que obtuvimos alegrías y triunfos, donde aprendimos a andar por el mundo y a ganarnos el abismo o la cumbre. En ciertos lugares, permanecen los árboles y los jardines, las casas y los portones, las calles y los…

” A mulher pós-moderna, ainda se defronta com muitos obstáculos a ser superado. Apesar da “autonomia” feminina tão falada, a verdade é que a mulher ainda vive sob um cenário de muitas incertezas. A mulher ainda não tem a autonomia suficiente para decidir com quem quer transar, por exemplo. Claro, muitas fazem a escolha de seus parceiros de maneira consciente.

Há situações por exemplo, onde se observado que, muitas mulheres engravidam por conta de sofrer uma violência sexual, um “estupro”, o que não é a decisão dela que prevalece nesse caso, Mas a do homem.

Uber Commits to Changes and Pays Millions to Resolve Justice Department Lawsuit for Overcharging People with Disabilities | OPA | Department of Justice

Uber will credit the accounts of more than 65,000 eligible riders who signed up for the waiver program for double the amount of wait time fees they were ever charged, which could amount to potentially hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in compensation. Uber will also pay $1,738,500 to more than one thousand riders who complained to Uber about being charged wait time fees because of disability, and $500,000 to other harmed individuals identified by the department.

“People with disabilities should not be made to feel like second-class citizens or punished because of their disability, which is exactly what Uber’s wait time fee policy did,” said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “This agreement sends a strong message that Uber and other ridesharing companies will be held accountable if their services discriminate against people with disabilities. The Civil Rights Division remains committed to enforcing the ADA and ensuring that people with disabilities can travel free from barriers and indignities.”
