About This Item

Place_Pub: Albuquerque, NM: University of NM Press, 1994. First Edition. First? Printing. very good, very good. 238, notes. Castillo introduces the term Xicanisma in a passionate plea for a politically active, socially committed Chicana feminism. In her essay "A Countryless Woman, " Castillo outlines the experience of the brown woman in a racist society that recognizes race relations mostly as a black and whitedilemma. Essays on the Watsonville strike, the early Chicano movement, and the roots of machismo illustrate the extent to which women still struggle against male dominance. Other essays suggest strategies for opposing the suppression of women's spirituality and sexuality by institutionalized religion and the state. The author is the winner of 1993 Mountains and Plains Bookseller's Award, the American Book Award from The Before Columbus Foundation, and the Carl Sandburg Prize.
