I wanted to start this blog because I was looking for a space to write my thoughts about everyday self expression. Subjects like history, identity, culture, class, sexuality, gender, family and everything in between. One of my favorite Chicana feminist authors, Ana Castillo, coined "Xicanisma" in her writings on racism, identity and classism. Xicanisma, is a state of being, a consciousness that exists beyond our borders. This blog, is my attempt to unpack my own cultural knowledge, applied and institutionalized acculturation, colonization and known reality. I hope to re-discover myself.
