Este fragmento de la película de Nina Paley nos ilustra el paso que se produce en torno a unos 4000 años, de sociedades igualitarias de cazadores recolectores, con culto a las Diosas Madre, a las sociedades patriarcales surgidas con la agricultura de arada. La sustitución de los cultos arcaicos por dioses patriarcales, la creación de un sistema de valores y de símbolos que supeditaba a las mujeres a los hombres, que se hacen los dueños de su sexualidad y de su capacidad reproductiva.
Music: “You Gotta Believe” written by Norman Whitfield, sung by the Pointer Sisters, circa 1976
You gotta believe in something
Why not believe in me?
You gotta believe in something
Why not believe in me?
Tell me brother,
what have I, I, done to you
To make you mean and treat me
the way you do?
Go on and raise your flag,
Brother,
Start your revolution.
I’m willing to let you do your thing,
Tell me why are you blind when it comes to mine?
You gotta believe in something
Why not believe in me?
You gotta believe in something
Why not believe in me?
Take the chain off your brain
I said,
Take the chain off your brain…
Stop.
Take a look at yourself…
Don’t (refuse??) something something…
You gotta believe in something
Why not believe in me?
You gotta believe in something
Why not believe in me?
