La Valiente: the Woman We’ve Been Waiting For

‪When Yuyi Morales got word of a call for submission looking for loud, unapologetic women artists to respond to Trump’s misogyny and racism, she had the perfect pitch: La Valiente.‬

‪“In the most classic version of Lotería, the card for El Valiente, The Brave One, depicts a man standing up in a ready-to-fight pose and holding a knife in one hand and a zarape in the other. But to me such has never been the right image to depict courage. So, I made my own version, hence, La Valiente,” Morales writes.‬

‪We agree. La Valiente is just the woman we need for these times!‬
