chicana iconography.

"& what I love most, she had so much soul,"
“Nadie se muere de amor, ni por falta ni por sobra,”

“Nadie se muere de amor, ni por falta ni por sobra,”

“I think the reason this image [Coyolxauhqui] is so important to me is that when you take a person and divide her up, you disempower her. She’s no longer a threat. My whole struggle in writing, in this anticolonial struggle, has been to put us back together again. To connect up the body with the soul and the mind with the spirit. That’s why for me there’s such a link between the text and the body, between textuality and sexuality, between the body and the spirit.” —Gloria Anzaldúa
