Definition

  • The term Chicana refers to a woman of Mexican descent, while Latina is a more general term, referring to a female from a Spanish-speaking household, born in a Spanish-speaking country, or choosing to identify as having Spanish ancestry.Chicana motherhood varies across the social strata of Chicana mothers, and is irreducible to particular mothering practices or identities.
