Dolores Aronovich Aguero, better known as Lola Aronovich (born June 6, 1967, in Buenos Aires), is an Argentine-Brazilian feminist blogger and educator.[1][2] She is a university professor at Federal University of Ceará (UFC) Department of Foreign Letters; her research is focused on English literature, film and gender issues[3][4][5][6]
Since 2008 Aronovich publishes a blog called Escreva, Lola, Escreva (Write, Lola, Write), which deals with topics such as machismo, misogyny, homophobia, and racism. After that, she has suffered numerous cyberattacks and threats of aggression and death. Her activism and her accusations, which led to the arrest of some of the perpetrators, were honored in 2018, with the Lei Lola (Lola Act), which gave the Brazilian Federal Police responsibility for investigating misogynistic content on the Internet.[7][8][9][10][11]
Dolores Aronovich studied advertising at the Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado (FAAP) from 1986 to 1988, not completing the course. She graduated in pedagogy from the Santa Catarina Teaching Association in 2002. She completed her specialization in letters at the University of the Joinville Region in 1998. From the Federal University of Santa Catarina, she became a master in letters in 2005, and a doctorate in 2009.[3]
She worked for the Joinville newspaper A Notícia as a film critic and cronista from 1998 until 2008, and was also a columnist between 2007 and 2012.[3]
She is an adjunct professor at the Universidade Federal do Ceará since 2010.[3]
