Exclusive Interview with Kimberly Theidon
It is a dream for any researcher that your work motivates others. Anthropologist Kimberly Theidon has been researching, since the mid-1990s, the rapes and mistreatment suffered by women during the internal war that shook the country, especially in Ayacucho. Her studies describe the existence of a belief that sadness passes from mother to child through breast milk. She named it with the evocative title "La teta asustada" (The Frightened Breast).
