Latina Issues: Fragments of Historia(ella) (herstory)

The second of six volumes in the series explores the fragments of history available about Latinas in the US and highlights their emerging voices, in a unified collection of reprinted articles. Each of the articles illustrates Latina perspectives on colonization, gender, race, and class. The earliest of the articles were originally published in 1974: Puertorriquenas in the United States: The Impact of Double Discrimination; and Chicanas and El Movimiento. The most recent were originally published in 1992: Two Legal Constructs of Motherhood: "Protective" Legislation in Mexico and the United States; and Chicana Studies: Is There a Future for Us in Women Studies?
