\n<\/i><\/b>Disobedience arises as an act of resistance facing oppressive power structures in How to Disappear<\/i> by Total Refusal, Palestinian Women<\/i> by Jocelyn Saab and Mujeres del Planeta<\/i> by Mar\u00eda Barea. In How to Disappear<\/i>, the Total Refusal collective explores the Battlefield<\/i> videogame as a field of military conflict where players must question violence and militarization, challenging accepted rules and revealing the futility of war in virtual spaces. Palestinian Women<\/i> portrays the everyday life of women who, in spite of the occupation and the violence in Palestine, exercise their right to disobey and resist through popular education, a form of care and a fabric of resilience.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, Mujeres del Planeta <\/i>focuses on Peruvian feminist activists who challenge social injustices by occupying land in order to live internal migration in a dignified way. These works invite us to reflect on whom or what we disobey: the institutions that perpetuate inequality, the system that limits our freedom and the narratives that impose a single path on us, where enjoyment, peaceful demonstrations and education emerge as weapons of resistance facing the oppression imposed by the circles of power.<\/p>\n
