"Durante generaciones, las mujeres de color han tenido que luchar contra las poderosas fuerzas del sexismo, el racismo y el clasismo; una lucha bastante solitaria. Cuando Prisca Dorca Mojicas fundó Latina Rebels, creó también una comunidad que las ayuda a pelear juntas. Lo hizo de nuevo con este libro. Para chicas fuertes, de corazón tierno y piel canela ofrece sabiduría y caminos de liberación, maneras poderosas de enfrentar diversos retos y empodera a las mujeres para que desafíen la narrativa blanca y masculina contando sus propias historias. Esta es una guía hacia el orgullo y hermandad para las mujeres de piel canela y piel negra, una herramienta necesaria para avivar todo un movimiento. Tal vez prenda una chispa dentro de ti" -- Provided by publisher. |

"For generations, Brown girls have had to push against powerful forces of sexism, racism, and classism, often feeling alone in the struggle. By founding Latina Rebels, Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez has created a community to help women fight together. In For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts, she offers wisdom and a liberating path forward for all women of color. She crafts powerful ways to address the challenges Brown girls face, from imposter syndrome to colorism. She empowers women to decolonize their worldview, and defy "universal" white narratives, by telling their own stories. Her book guides women of color toward a sense of pride and sisterhood and offers essential tools to energize a movement. May it spark a fire within you." -- Publisher marketing. |
