This chapter looks to recent hybrid Latina queer writings for what they might offer us as a method and approach to the question of women’s accountability to women in a context of gendered violence. Through hybrid life writing that combines elements of non-fiction and fiction, Gabby Rivera’s Juliet take a Breath (2016), Mean by Myriam Gurba, (2017), and Desert Blood (2005) by Alicia Gaspar de Alba explore how queer Latinas negotiate violence against women within their cultural sphere and in conversation with dominant Anglo culture. The forms of violence introduced in these works range from cultural erasure (Juliet takes a Breath), to assault and rape (Mean), and the ongoing slaughter of women on the Mexico/US border (Desert Blood). This essay explores how the authors frame the obstacles queer Latinas confront as they strategize individually and collectively to address public and private assaults in relation to others; in each case, the authors depict Latinas who respond to these challenges by putting women first as they respond to simultaneous and competing racial and sexual politics.
