Culture

Dolores Huerta Quote: “My mother never made me do…”

My mother never made me do anything for my brothers, like serve them. I think that’s an important lesson, especially for the Latino culture, because the women are expected to be the ones that serve and cook and whatever. Not in our family. Everybody was equal.

Kathy Acker Quote: “The literary culture, if you examine…”

The literary culture, if you examine it, the high literary culture is that which preserves the government and you know it’s really the talk for those who have.

Muriel Rukeyser Quote: “Those who speak of our culture…”
