Anzaldúa, G., & Keating, A. (Eds.). (2002). this bridge we call home: radical visions for transformation (1st ed.). Routledge. https://doi.org/10.4324/9780203952962

ABSTRACT

More than twenty years after the ground-breaking anthology This Bridge Called My Back called upon feminists to envision new forms of communities and practices, Gloria E. Anzaldúa and AnaLouise Keating have painstakingly assembled a new collection of over eighty original writings that offers a bold new vision of women-of-color consciousness for the twenty-first century. Written by women and men--both "of color" and "white"--this bridge we call home will challenge readers to rethink existing categories and invent new individual and collective identities.
