Resumen / Summary:

Una celebración de AOC, la mujer más joven en servir en el Congreso y su nueva superestrella.

No hace mucho, nadie podía imaginarse que una latina de veintiocho años se postulase para el Congreso en representación de Queens y el Bronx: era necesario enfrentarse a la maquinaria política de la ciudad, casi exclusivamente blanca y exclusivamente masculina. Pero desde que Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez apareció en la escena con toda su gloria, tweets y tendencia a romper todos los esquemas, el rostro de la política del siglo XXI ha cambiado. Hoy, Ocasio-Cortez es la principal defensora del progreso, ganando apoyo entre sus colegas y generando admiración secreta entre sus enemigos. Luchó contra un ex-presidente indignante y una esfera mediática conservadora que la coloca bajo ataque constantemente. ¿Por qué? Porque temen su don de desvelar la verdad ante el poder.

Con ilustraciones, investigación profunda y escritos tan puntuales como ella, la serie Reinas de la Resistencia rinde homenaje a esta fenomenal mujer. /

A celebration of AOC, the youngest woman to serve in Congress and its new superstar.

The last few years have seen a wave of renewed participation and excitement among women in politics. From unprecedented gains for women in office at the last midterm elections, to the record-breaking number of women running for president, to private citizens getting involved in their own communities, there's more enthusiasm than ever for women stepping up and getting things done.

And who better embodies the radical change of today and hope for the future than AOC? Born in the Bronx in 1989, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the brave and savvy advocate for revolutionary change that her elders have paved the way for. From protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline alongside the Sioux in Standing Rock, to taking on the older, white, male head of the Queens Democratic machine--and winning--Rep. Ocasio-Cortez has refused to cave to the powerful and served as inspiration for a wave of young voters and activists in an era that demands challenges to the status quo.

In a fun and substantive fusion of narrative and illustrations, every book in the QUEENS OF THE RESISTANCE series will appeal to the broad, diverse, intergenerational audience that reflects the backgrounds of the game-changing politicians they celebrate.
