Villegas de Magnon was a fiery critic of dictator Porfirio Diaz and a conspirator and participant in the Mexican Revolution. She rebelled against the ideals of her aristocratic class and against the traditional role of women in her society. In 1910 Villegas de Magnon moved from Mexico to Laredo, Texas, where she continued supporting the revolution as a member of the Junta Revolucionaria (Revolutionary Council) and as an incisive editorialist in Laredo newspapers. In 1913, she founded La Cruz Blanca (The White Cross), a corps of nurses for the revolutionary forces active from the border region to Mexico City. Many women from both sides of the border risked their lives and left their families to support the revolution. Years later, however, when their participation remained unacknowledged and was running the risk of being forgotten, Villegas de Magnon decided to write her personal account of this history. With enthralling text and 22 pages of photos, La Rebelde examines the period from 1876 through 1920, documenting the heroic actions of the women. Written in the third person with a romantic fervor, the narrative weaves Villegas de Magnon's autobiography with the story of La Cruz Blanca. Villegas de Magnon's written contributions have remained virtually unrecognized--peripheral to both Mexico and the United States. Not only does her work affirm the vitality, strength and involvement of women in sociopolitical concerns, but it also stands as one of the very few written documents of the period that consciously challengesstereotyped misconceptions of Mexican Americans held by both Mexicans and Anglo Americans. 606 $aMexican American women$vBiography 606 $aMexican Americans$vBiography 606 $aFeminists$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aRevolutionaries$zMexico$vBiography 606 $aFeminists$zMexico$vBiography 606 $aWomen journalists$zTexas$zLaredo$vBiography 607 $aMexico$xHistory$yRevolution, 1910-1920$vBiography 607 $aMexico$xHistory$yRevolution, 1910-1920$xWomen 607 $aLaredo (Tex.)$vBiography 615 0$aMexican American women 615 0$aMexican Americans 615 0$aFeminists 615 0$aRevolutionaries 615 0$aFeminists 615 0$aWomen journalists 676 $a973/.046872/0092 676 $aB 700 $aVillegas de Magno?n$b Leonor$00 701 $aLomas$b Clara$01787804 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962212603321 996 $aLa rebelde$94321771 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01137nam 2200385zu 450 001 9910842396203321 005 20250827080001 010 $a979-1-03-510941-7 035 $a(CKB)30935465100041 035 $a(PPN)277012015 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88955118 035 $a(FRCYB88955118)88955118 035 $a(EXLCZ)9930935465100041 100 $a20250908d2024 u| | 101 0 $afre 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aNouveaux martyrs a?
