*UNLOCKED LIT REVIEW* Dos cosas que yo no decidí decidieron mi vida: el país donde nací y el sexo con que vine al mundo

<p>On this *UNLOCKED LIT REVIEW* Yvette and her Omega Phi Beta at Yale sorority sister Maria Jiménez-Zepeda digest the first 150 pages of Gioconda Belli's memoir "El Pais Bajo Mi Piel". They discuss whether Belli is sufficiently honest about her class positionality and the privileges that brought her in the Nicaraguan Sandinista resistance, critique how the most prominent figures from Latin American literature and art tend to have some proximity to whiteness, and express appreciation for Belli's descriptions of divine femininity.</p> <p>Buy the book here: https://www.palabrasbookstore.com/book/9781400034390</p> <p>Support Radio Cachimbona here: https://www.patreon.com/radiocachimbona?fan_landing=true</p> <p>Follow @radiocachimbona on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter</p> <p><br></p>
