By: Aldama, Arturo J. (ed.); Quiñonez, Naomi H. (ed.)
Published by: Indiana University Press
The interdisciplinary essays in this volume discuss racialized, subaltern, feminist, and diasporic identities and the aesthetic politics of hybrid and mestiza/o cultural productions.

Second, it recovers the Mexican women's and Chicana literary and cultural heritages ignored by Euro-American canons and patriarchal exclusionary practices.
