“Latina and Chicana feminist editorial endeavors are at the center of making community: in both critical and creative anthologies and in journals. Cristina Herrera and Gabriella Gutiérrez y Muhs have created the space and gathered together these voices—these abundant narratives of Latina lives. This collection follows in the tradition of This Bridge Called My Back and Chicana Creativity and Criticism.”Eliza Rodríguez
