Send Her Back and Other Stories by Munashe Kaseke
5.0
This was a powerful anthology that really makes us see how difficult immigrants have it in the USA, specially women from Zimbabwe.
We see different stories from a variety of women, but they all have that thing in common.
Not all the stories are cute and we don't have a happy ever after assured for every story, but that's part of what makes it so real and it gives us an insight on how hard immigrant women have it.
From cultural differences to the fear of being deported, ungrateful families that believe you are a magical ATM just because you made it in the US, to the unfair migration system. This anthology covers almost everything up and it's so real it makes you cry in frustration.
It also gives us a great insight for intersectional feminism, since all women have different experiences and not everything applies the same to all of us, even when we are part of a minority as well.
I highly recommend this book to everyone that wants to get an insight for immigrants on their side, and for people that wants to understand more about to intersectional feminism.
