Gustavus Myers Outstanding Book Award from the Gustavus Myers
Center for the Study of Bigotry and Human Rights
This new edition of an immensely influential book gives voice to
Mexic Amerindian women silenced for hundreds of years by the dual
censorship of being female and indigenous. Castillo replaced the
term "Chicana feminism" with "Xicanisma" to include mestiza women
on both sides of the border. In history, myth, interviews, and
ethnography Castillo revisits her reflections on Chicana activism,
spiritual practices, sexual attitudes, artistic ideology, labor
struggles, and education-related battles. Her book remains a
compelling document, enhanced here with a new afterword that
reexamines the significance of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
