The Brown Girl of these poems is fed up with being shushed, with being constantly told how foreign and unattractive and unwanted she is. She's flipping tables and throwing chairs. She's raising her voice. She's keeping a sharp focus on the violences committed against her every day, and she's writing through the depths of her "otherness" to find beauty and even grace amidst her rage. Simultaneously looking into the mirror and out into the world, Reyes exposes the sensitive nerve-endings of life under patriarchy as a visible immigrant woman of color as she reaches towards her unflinching center."--Back cover. 520 $a "Reyes's unapologetic intersectionally feminist "tough love" poems show young women of color, especially Filipinas, how to survive oppression with fearlessness"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a "A Blessing the Boats Selection." 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (page 65). 505 00 $t [You have come to me]. $t Brown Girl Fields Many Questions -- $t Brown Girl Ghost -- $t Brown Girl Looks in the Mirror -- $t Brown Girl Consumed -- $t Brown Girl Beginning -- $t Brown Girl Breaking -- $t Brown Girl Hustle -- $t Brown Girl Glossary of Terms -- $t Brown Girl Manifesto: #allpinayeverything -- $t BROWN GIRL MIXTAPE -- $t Track: "Gaze," Sweetback, feat.
