About this person
Victoria Madrigal Araya was a Costa Rican teacher and suffragette. She was the daughter of José Madrigal and Rosa Araya. Her sister, Vitalia Madrigal, was also a teacher and suffragette. In 1919, Madrigal participated in a teacher's strike led by Ángela Acuña Braun against the administration of President Federico Tinoco Granados for labor law violations. Others who participated were Matilde Carranza, Ana Rosa Chacón, Lilia González, Carmen Lyra, Vitalia Madrigal, Esther De Mezerville, María Ortiz, Teodora Ortiz, Ester Silva and Andrea Venegas. The main issue for teachers was that their salaries were low and that was compounded because they were paid only in vouchers, which were often depreciated and redeemed at half their value. During the protest, the office of La Información, the official government newspaper, was burned down by the teachers.
