Borderlands/La Frontera, Third Edition: The New Mestiza

by Gloria Anzaldua
59 members / 0 friends / 1 groups / 0 reviews / 6 tags

Rooted in Gloria Anzalda's experience as a Chicana, a lesbian, an activist, and a writer, the groundbreaking essays and poems in this volume profoundly challenged how we think about identity. Borderlands/La Frontera remapped our understanding of what a "border" is, seeing it not as a simple divide between here and there, us and them, but as a psychic, social, and cultural terrain that we inhabit, and that inhabits all of us. This twentieth-anniversary edition features new commentaries from prominent activists, artists, and teachers on the legacy of Gloria Anzalda's visionary work.
