María Talavera Broussé

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article since the individual, María Talavera Broussé, relates to my class and I am considering related topics for my final project. The article matters since it examines the life of one of the individuals involved in the anarchist newspaper titled Regeneración. At first, my impression of the article was that it contained very few information. Aside from this, it references this woman's partner in order to refer to her contributions rather than only the woman herself.

In terms of organization, the article does contain an introductory sentence that provides a short biography into the life of María Talavera Broussé. However, the article contains poor structure since there is only one section titled Biography. For the issue of content, no further mention is made regarding her personal life, career, or achievements. The article simply states that she contributed to the Mexican newspaper Regeneración and how she functioned as a support system for partner Ricardo Flores Magón. In fact, the only image of her in the article is with this male individual. Furthermore, this little information is derived from merely two dated sources. One of them is a blogpost from 2007 that details the life of María Talavera Broussé. There is also a primary source letter that Ricardo Flores Magón wrote to Talavera Broussé in the year 1908. Perhaps these sources could be expanded to include the newspaper archives of Regeneración and the Readex collection of newspapers which mention María Talavera Broussé.

There are many elements in terms of content that could potentially be added to this article. Among these, there is the mobilization of Mexican Americans in the plaza of Los Angeles by María Talavera Broussé in the early 1900's. Since the article emphasizes the role of Talavera Broussé in the publishings of Regeneración, it would be useful to expand upon her specific role. It could include how she maintained the development of the newspaper by distributing pamphlets and letters of information to members of the Partido Liberal Mexicano while Ricardo Flores Magón was in jail.
