I dream a world where mujeres rise

Your hair journey will end beautifully, but it won’t be easy. 

The ridiculous notion of being told you are 50%. As it leaves you feeling like you’re not enough.

Each curl is a stress i just wanna feel pretty, not any less Except each curl is a story I must learn not to worry.

Sometimes, life will try to take everything away from you. Sometimes, it’ll feel successful.

These are the things that make me who I am.

Your path will open a way to girls like us.

My ancestors tongue, flows freely, communally...

It's exhausting justifying a world not meant for me.

Sometimes the youngest one, sometimes the quietest one.

These hands, my hands,  inherited from generations of women who came before me...

I always feel a little pressured to pick and choose.

What do you see when you look at me?

I live as part of the generation that carries my ancestors' unfinished dreams.

Well, what does Latina look like?
