Latina outsiders remaking Latina identity
Grisel Acosta (Editor)
"Latina Outsiders Remaking Latina Identity is an exploration of Latinas on the periphery of both Latina culture and culture in the United States. Whether they are deliberately rejected or whether they choose to reject sexist, classist, or racist practices within their cultures, the subjects of these articles, essays, short fiction, poems, testimonios, and visual art demonstrate the value of their experience. Ultimately, the outsider experience influences what the larger culture adopts, demonstrating that a different perspective is key to remaking Latina identity. Outside perspectives include those of queer, indigenous, Afro-Latina, activist, and differently-abled folks. By challenging stereotypes and revealing the diverse range of narratives which make up the Latina experience, Latina Outsiders Remaking Latina Identity will expand and deepen notions of the Latina identity for students and researchers of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies"-- Provided by publisher
