Wild Tongues Can't Be Tamed: 15 Voices from the Latinx Diaspora by Saraciea J. Fennell

5.0

---

Wowowwow so much goodness in such short vignettes! Breathtaking narratives from authors sharing their Cuban, Puerto Rican, Dominican, Panamanian (and so many more Latinx voices!) experiences. Each unique story tackled relevant issues like intersectionality and imposter syndrome, and some more complex issues like internalized racism and religious dysphoria (note: not sure if that's an actual term but a topic one author grappled with). I particularly enjoyed #Julian4Spiderman chapter!
