#54 FiLiA meets: Consuelo Rivera-Fuentes

See this content in the original post

Consuelo Rivera-Fuentes spoke at the FiLiA Conference in 2019:

I am an activist, EFL teacher, sociologist, feminist Lesbian, writer and publisher.

As a feminist Lesbian writer and reader, I practise Sym/biography and Flourishing (two concepts I have coined and developed throughout the years).

As a publisher I give huge importance to the enmeshing of both concepts above in a wider system called Bibliodiversity.

As a writer, I love to ‘memory’ in company, so I form part of Las Juanas (feminist literary collective of women), SLAP (Latin-American poets and writers) and to Exiled Writers Ink.

I teach English to Syrian refugees in Shropshire (as part of the Refugee Council) and I am one of the three Directors of the Festival El Sueño Existe.

I am also a member of the Autobiography Study Group of the British Sociological Association
