mestiza consciousness  

Définition

  • “Mestiza consciousness,” or mestizaje, became a revolutionary declaration of social agency and the cornerstone of Chicana feminist political thought in Gloria Anzaldúa's 1987 book, Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza. The primary themes of mestiza consciousness concern displacement and mobility, rupturing dualities that imprison women, finding power in difference, and shifting among multiple facets of identity.
