She supports theirs struggles in all the wolrd, from the female genital cutting, to abortion, beaten women, their expression’s right or their right to create.

Half-corsican, half-italian, Antoinette Fouque was bornin 1936. Her mother was illiterate  and her father was an active campaigner of the “Front populaire”. Her origins insufflated her the will to fight, the liking of social justice, the need to find her real place.

Antoinette Fouque brought to the women protest movement the particularity to combine action with thinking,Unconsciousness with History, Psycho-analysis with Politic. Her feminism does not advocates the sexes war, but it refers to a re-definition of the egality concept, concentrating on the difference.
