PELAEZ RODRIGUEZ, Diana Carolina. Xicanisma: Ana Castillo's Poetics of Feminist and Border "Conscientización". Nómadas [online]. 2021, n.54, pp.237-249.  Epub 17-Ene-2022. ISSN 0121-7550.  https://doi.org/10.30578/nomadas.n54a14.

The article aims to get us closer to the life and work of Chicana writer Ana Castillo. The author, drawing on Castillo's poems, novels, essays, and interviews, immerses herself in the force of Castillo's feminist and border thinking and shares insights about her influence on the Chicano and Latino/a/x community. The author concludes by referring to how Castillo's creative activism provides us with a xicanist and collective imagination to build world possibilities for a more just social system towards racialized communities in contexts that are historically racist, classist, and sexist.

Palabras clave : Xicanisma; Ana Castillo; Chicano Movement; Border Epistemologies; Migrations; Spiritual Activism.
