Summary

"Twenty years after the publication of" This Bridge Called My Back," this stunning collection of writings by Latina feminists raises the stakes of collaboration across race, class, nation, and sexuality." Telling to Live" challenges prevailing research practices and forges a model of deep collaboration for future generations of scholars."--Angela Y. Davis, author of "Blues Legacies and Black Feminism: Gertrude 'Ma' Rainey, Bessie Smith, and Billie Holiday"
