“Black Dove: Mama, Mi’jo and Me.”
This is the title of the new memoir by renowned author Ana Castillo, a book that weaves stories of her migrant Mexican American family and explores what it means to be a single, bisexual, brown, feminist parent of a son in a world of mass incarceration, racial profiling, police brutality, mother-blaming, and the scapegoating of immigrants. The story is anchored in the current heated political climate.
