Gender on the Borderlands

Gender on the Borderlands captures the intense, complex, and gendered experience of those living along the barbwire borderlands of Mexico and the United States. Through scholarship, testimonials, oral histories, songs, poetry, and art, the contributors reclaim the borderlands from the distortions and violence of “official” history and continue the recovery of a gendered Chicana/Chicano history begun by Gloria Anzaldúa in Borderlands/La Frontera more than twenty years ago. Edited by Antonia Castañeda with Susan H. Armitage, Patricia Hart and Karen Weathermon, this anthology includes an excerpt of rasgos asiaticos.
