Disforia por Andy Luján

Por más que lo intento el espejo no logra reflejar lo que percibo en mi interior,

Labios demasiado regordetes.

Caderas demasiado anchas.

But is surviving worth losing my identity?

Who I fought to be?

Dysphoria by Andy Lujan

As hate crimes go up

Suicide rates rise

I want to hide who I am just to continue to survive.

But is surviving worth losing my identity?

Los Lazos de la injusticia - Danielle S. Rueb (Castillejo)

Sin embargo, a pesar de estas soluciones razonables, la comunidad latina/a/x fue acusada de ser una madre soltera que denunciaba violencia racial, para desacreditar a muchos otros. En esta breve carta de tres páginas, casi ninguna de nuestras preocupaciones o historias se valida, ni se compromete a buscar justicia, bueno, el tipo de justicia que se aplica a todas las personas.

Un autorretrato que muestra "quién eres tú." Los hombros bajaran, no conocía a ella. Aire con olor a cera, papel seco,
Un escalofrío asqueado y una tristeza. Diecisiete años en la sala de arte.
