This volume brings together leading scholars in their fields who offer much needed and wide-ranging perspectives on the intersections of genders, cultures, and literacies. As incidents of racial and gender aggression grow in number and in global attention, it is essential to understand how racial and gender identities and their expressions interplay and influence literacy development and practice. Contributors examine how social identities intersect and are expressed in literacy practices across an array of school and out-of-school settings and discuss how gender and race are represented in individuals' multimodal practices. Chapters address such topics as the literacy practices of incarcerated fathers of color, Black girls' literacies, Indigenous students' cultural literacies, the writing practices of Latinx women for identity representation, and more. Ideal for scholars in literacy studies, gender studies, and cultural studies, this volume is a necessary and original update to the ways cultural, racial, and gender identities are viewed in current educational and sociocultural climates.

“…Para ahondar en la presencia de diferentes expresiones de violencia 1 dirigidas hacia mujeres migrantes por parte de sus parejas sentimentales, se han seleccionado los relatos Woman Hollering Creek de la escritora chicana Sandra Cisneros (1991), Lorena de María Fernanda Ampuero y la novela El amor de Carmela me va a matar (2010) del escritor peruano Eduardo González Viaña. La violencia es uno de los hilos conductores que se encuentra presente en 1 Para el análisis de la violencia, tomamos en cuenta la pluralidad de las expresiones en que ésta puede ser manifestada y ejercida, nos valemos de las aportaciones de Johan Galtung (1990) y su clasificación de la violencia directa, estructural y cultural.…”

Recibido: enero 11 de 2023 Aceptado: 30 de noviembre de 2023 Publicado: 29 de enero de 2024 Recibido: enero 11 de 2023 Aceptado: 30 de noviembre de 2023 Publicado: 29 de enero de 2024 En el presente trabajo se exploran las representaciones literarias de las expresiones físicas, psicológicas y económicas de la violencia ejercida contra mujeres inmigrantes por sus parejas sentimentales en el ámbito doméstico. En este análisis se busca dimensionar cómo, ante el riesgo de la deportabilidad y la vulnerabilidad de las mujeres inmigrantes, la violencia de género encuentra una relación con la violencia estructural y cultural. En la narrativa de Eduardo González Viaña, María Fernanda Ampuero y Sandra Cisneros se establece una verticalidad entre los personajes masculinos no migrantes y los personajes femeninos migrantes que permite ahondar en la construcción de las relaciones de poder y el impacto que éstas tienen en cuanto a la posibilidad de permanecer en el país al que se migra o retornar al país de origen.

“…The authors feel that female residents of the Colonias could easily be caught between legislated values, such as those inherent in welfare reform, and the values rewarded by their own culture, i.e. self-sacrifice, conformity and deference to male authority (Anzaldua, 1987, Cisneros, 1991. The practice of allowing "family self-sufficiency" to become tantamount to the family's adoption of legislated middle class values might limit access to these social services to women who are willing to compromise their own culture.…”
