Asserting the consumer's fundamental right to transparent information about products, their origins, and their true costs.
Sor Juana fought fiercely for the right to access knowledge and to question authority—principles that directly apply to consumer transparency. Just as she demanded access to books and intellectual discourse, ethical consumption requires demanding complete information about what we buy: supply chain origins, environmental impact, worker conditions, and hidden subsidies. This right counters corporate opacity and marketing deception. Sor Juana's legacy insists that ignorance is not neutral—it enables injustice. When corporations hide information about sweatshop labor, pesticide use, or resource extraction, they deny us the knowledge necessary for ethical choice. By asserting the right to know, we reclaim agency and force accountability. Transparency becomes an act of justice, honoring both our dignity as thinking beings and the dignity of all affected by our consumption.
