Read Like a Girl: WMC Book Club is a book club created by the Women's Museum of California. The club reads one feminist book each month. Discussion meetings take place every third Friday.
The book for February is Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza by Gloria E. Anzaldúa. Anzaldua, a Chicana native of Texas, explores in prose and poetry the murky, precarious existence of those living on the frontier between cultures and languages. Writing in a lyrical mixture of Spanish and English that is her unique heritage, she meditates on the condition of Chicanos in Anglo culture, women in Hispanic culture, and lesbians in the straight world.
