Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments This Bridge Called My Back: Writings by Radical Women of Color, Cherríe Moraga and Gloria Anzaldúa, editors, 1979-1983, United States, ESSAYS

"From the forwards by Cherríe Moraga and Gloria Anzaldúa, through the poems, essays, and pieces Toni Cade Bambara calls "cables, esoesses, conjurations and fusile missles," this is a work of bringing-togetherness that gives the reader a clear-eyed view of life in the United States...As Gloria Anzaldúa puts it in her foreword: "Haven't we always borne jugs of water, children, poverty? Why not learn to bear baskets of hope, love, self-nourishment and to step lightly?"

(J.L., p. 157)
