Remembering Butchlalis: Chicanas Queering La Panocha

In this episode the Xicana Tiahui crew hangouts with Claudia Rodriguez, scholar, writer, and teatrista. Claudia reflects on her journey as a Queer Chicana writer and her role in creating Butchalis de Panochtitlan, which functioned as space for Chicanas to own, claim, and celebrate their Butch identities. We talk about why theater and Queer theater specifically is overlooked in the field of Chicana/o/x studies and the critical role artists make in producing knowledge for La Chicanada.
