The thing that has kept me up at night about this book is the idea that there are white people who will read it and think they now know all there is to know about my people. They will read it and think, by the reading, that they have done their part. It just breaks my heart.

It’s such an unbelievable example of a sense of white entitlement. Disgusting too that she’s playing on the theme. Why not write a book of *actual* immigrant women’s journeys, their words and perspectives?

Fantastic piece that articulates so well this cultural moment. I want to highlight the extraordinary book “All the Agents & Saints” by
@SElizondoGriest about life on the US border (comes out in paperback next month and needs all the love).Hvala. Twitter će to iskoristiti za poboljšanje vaše vremenske crte. PoništiPoništi

Quote from Scratch: Publishing is a business based on fiction—and not only the fiction that is packaged between covers...In order to convince harried distracted people...to read hundreds of pages...we in the publishing business must manufacture an aura of success around a book...

Thank you for this important piece.
I’d like to clarify that Puerto Rico is *not* part of the USA. The juridical invention of the Insular Cases rendered it “a property of, but not a part of” since early 20th c. The archipelago (also not an island) is still very much a colony.1 -
2The attendant effects of this are vast, complex and far-reaching. And there has always been an enduring history of decolonial Puerto Rican movements, including in our diaspora. Much more to all this, but little space here
Warm wishes!
