Chekos’art pays tribute to Gloria Anzaldùa

Chekos’art pays tribute to Gloria Anzaldùa
Wall painting by Chekos’art at University of Bari
Be like a bridge means getting rid of their borders, not close to each other. Be like a bridge is the act of opening the door to the foreigner, from the inside and from the outside. Be like a bridge is groped to communities.
Tribuite do Gloria Anzaldua, an American scholar of Chicana cultural theory, feminist theory, and queer theory. She loosely based her best-known book, Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza, on her life growing up on the Mexican-Texas border and incorporated her lifelong feelings of social and cultural marginalization into her work.
Thanks to Aracnea for the collaboration, All staff from Department of  Education Science, Psychology, Communication Science of Bari and Marika Marangella for photos.
