Loving in the War Years
Loving in the War Years: Lo Que Nunca Pasó Por Sus Labios | Cherríe Moraga
5 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
'Moraga demonstrates her virtuosity as a poet; and, as a poet, she brings to her nonfiction essays images so hard, honest, and disturbing that her political analysis is breathtakingly personal and immediate.' San Francisco ChronicleThis new edition of Moraga's seminal work on identity, sexuality, history, and the politics of Chicana feminism includes a new Introduction, three new chapters, and new poetry from Moraga. Weaving together poetry and prose, Spanish and English, family history and political theory, Loving in the War Years has been a classic in the feminist and Chicano canon since its 1983 release.

"Is it for this reason I so often fear my own writing, fear that it will jump up and push me off some precipice?"

Go back to your teachers. The ones who do it best, who dedicated their work to the #wisdom of the #queer #womenofcolor experience. The ones who speak your truths. #CherrieMoraga reminds me how to draw strength from my voice, to choose myself first, to choose my writing first, to embrace the storm of my emotions and show the duality and interconnectedness of vulnerability and courage. #lagüera #mixed #lovinginthewaryears
