Synopsis

Why are we afraid of getting old?
Is youth synonymous with beauty?
What is Age Shaming?
The answers to these and other questions can help you reflect on your fears and prejudices.
Ageism is age prejudice. The act of discriminating against a person according to age, or, if you prefer, the date of birth, the one that is there, on your ID!
But what leads someone to perpetuate a prejudice of which they are likely to become a victim?
After all, are we all ageists in deconstruction?
This book seeks to initiate a movement of reflection and social transformation. Or at least participate in it!
