Summary
From the founder of Latina Rebels, a rallying cry for women of color that gives them the keys for their own liberation

“Mojica Rodríguez’s electrifying debut channels mesmeric prose to heal the wounds of white supremacy.” —Los Angeles Times

For generations, Brown girls have had to push against powerful forces of sexism, racism, and classism, often feeling alone in the struggle. By founding Latina Rebels, Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez has created a community to help women fight together. In For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts, she offers wisdom and a liberating path forward for all women of color. She crafts powerful ways to address the challenges Brown girls face, from imposter syndrome to colorism. She empowers women to decolonize their worldview, and defy “universal” white narratives, by telling their own stories. Her book guides women of color toward a sense of pride and sisterhood and offers essential tools to energize a movement.

May it spark a fire within you.

I love this book, as a first generation immigrant who came to this country as an infant, this story resonates with me so deeply.

She put in words so many of my feeling and experiences while growing up. Hearing those things that are never talked about but just understood by those who also lived it. The fear of being undone with a single lance, by people in spaces that weren't meant for you. I'm glad she recorded the audio herself, as you can heal and feel the raw emotion that these memories evoke.

Love it, if you’re white without an open mind or heart you may want to hold off. As the book shares its intended for BIWOC folks and shares the intersecting experiences of navigating this Country (USA), systemic racism, and white supremacy. As a Native American women this book resonated with me in more ways than one and I finished it in under a week!
