Description

In this groundbreaking book, author Margaret Cant?-S?nchez takes on the U.S. educational system. Cant?-S?nchez introduces the concept of the education/educaci?n conflict, where Latinas navigate the clash between home and school epistemologies under Anglocentric, assimilationist pedagogies.

By analyzing literature, such as Barbara Renaud Gonz?lez's Golondrina, Why Did You Leave Me?, and education testimonios from seminal works like This Bridge Called My Back and Telling to Live, Cant?-S?nchez reveals how Latina/Chicana protagonists and students negotiate this conflict through a mestizaje of epistemologies--blending elements of both home and school cultures within the third space of education.

Cant?-S?nchez utilizes an interdisciplinary approach, deploying critical race theory, Chicana third-space feminism, and other pedagogical theories like sentipensante (a sensing/thinking) pedagogy employed by education scholar Laura Rendon, among others. By providing pivotal insights and strategies, she demonstrates how educators can implement culturally relevant pedagogies in their classrooms from K-12 through higher education, fostering environments where Latina/Chicana students can thrive without forsaking their cultural identities.

Empowering Latina Narratives not only identifies the challenges Latina/Chicana students face but also offers a roadmap for overcoming them, making this book an essential resource for scholars, educators, and students committed to culturally inclusive education.

About the Author
Margaret Cant?-S?nchez is a visiting assistant professor of English at St. Mary's University where she teaches composition and literature courses with a focus on Latinx theory, cultural studies, and literature.
