Pentru urmatoarea intalnire a cercului incepem sa citim cateva selectii din Interviews/Entrevistas de Gloria Anzaldua, coord. AnaLouise Keating.
In aceasta colectie autobiografica, Anzaldua exploreaza intersectiile intre viata ei, opera ei si teoria postcoloniala. Interviurile contin explicatii clare ale conceptelor ei Borderlands/Frontera si mestizaje; felul in care foloseste termenul de Nou Tribalism; si ceea ce Anzaldua numeste conocimientos — cai alternative de cunoastere si sinteza a reflectiei cu actiunea pentru a zdruncina status quo-ul.
