Suffragettes' speech-making workshops was a way to provide women with tools “with which to take their concerns out into the public domain” (Rose Gibbs, 2016). Speech was a civilized way to respond to violence happening inside homes. Feminists focused on the voice because there is a uniqueness in it, that embodies the speaker when entering a dialogue. It is an approach that rejects the abstract and bodiless universal identity of one's person, that has been developed by the western thought. By that identity I mean one person is represented as a universal entity that shares the same characteristics and problems with all the people. So this person can be represented in a conversation concerning her/his body. But according to them each person is unique and carries personal and situated problems and principles. Even more, the voice through speech- that can take the form of songs passing from the one person to the other or the collective voice of protesting- links one another and at the same time keeps the individuality of the speaker. In contrast to mainstream political spheres the feminists, like anarchists, were looking for horizontal ways of communication were no voice was dominating over others. Listening everyone, even the most shy ones, is a basic element of this kind of practices. -![alt text](speech-making-workshop.jpg) Girl in a jacket ### Radio amplification-multiplication @@ -30,11 +29,12 @@ She brings the example of a project, called Talking Homes by John Brumit, that w The second project that she talks about is The Public Broadcast Cart made by Ricardo Miranda Zuñiga, that is a portable home-made radio broadcasting the voice of the one driving the cart in several places. The voice of the participant becomes public on site through speakers and extends to radio frequencies and the Internet. The legality of the radio cart doesn’t concern the present public and the unusual object attracts even more their attention. Based on the open source and pirate radio spirit, this offering of access to the technology refuses the specialization and the prohibition of the airwaves. The parallel expanses of the voice and the uncensored speech in three different public spaces occupies at the same time the physical, on-line and electromagnetic realm.
