Description
A groundbreaking new collection of twentieth century Latina writingA collection of essential writings by Latinas from the 1900s to 1960 that document the undeniable presence of the Latina community in the United States and stand as a testament to the dismissal and erasure of their intellectual and feminist contributions to the nation.The first book of its kind, The Penguin Book of Latina Writings shines a light on a robust community of America-based Latina voices that have been historically overlooked and underrepresented in literature, and demonstrates the valuable contributions Latina writers have made to the global literary and intellectual community. While some authors’ publications remain scarce, they today represent essential voices responding to issues that impacted women, children and Latino communities at large, including feminism, worker’s rights, colonialism, racism, exile, immigration, citizenship and religion.
