Summary:
"Updated and expanded edition of the foundational text of
women
of
color
feminism. Originally released in 1981, this is a testimony to
women
of
color
feminism as it emerged in the last quarter of the twentieth century. Through personal essays, criticism, interviews, testimonials, poetry, and visual art, the collection explores, as coeditor Cherríe Moraga writes, "the complex confluence of identities - race, class, gender, and sexuality - systemic to
women
of
color
oppression and liberation." This fourth edition contains an extensive new introduction by Moraga, along with a previously unpublished statement by Gloria Anzaldúa. Includes visual artists whose work was produced during the same period as
Bridge
, including Betye Saar, Ana Mendieta, and Yolanda López, as well as current contributor biographies.
Bridge
continues to reflect an evolving definition of feminism, one that can effectively adapt to, and help inform an understanding of the changing economic and social conditions of
women
of
color
in the United States and throughout the world. "Immense is
my
admiration for the ongoing dialogue and discourse on feminism, Indigenous feminism, the defining discussions in
women
of
color
movements and the broader movement. I have loved this book for thirty years, and am so pleased we have returned with our stories, words, and attributes to the growing and resilient movement." -- Winona LaDuke (Anishinaabe), Executive Director, Honor the Earth. A poet, playwright, and cultural activist, Cherríe Moraga is Artist in Residence in the Department of Theater and Performance Studies and in the Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity Program at Stanford University. Gloria Anzaldúa (1942–2004) was a poet, metaphysical philosopher, and scholar of Chicana cultural theory, feminist theory, and queer theory."--Provided by publisher.
