Abstract
In this article, I weave personal recollections as a sexual abuse survivor with a selected review of the empirical literature on Latinas and sexual violence in order to begin a discussion towards the need to go beyond the “sharing our experiences” as a healing technique. As daughters of Malinche our project should be devoted to investing our energies into the deand reconstruction of those discourses that have made us into objects of sexual prey and shame. In doing so, we can truly transform our communities ideas about mujeres and gender. [Article copies available for a fee from The Transformative Studies Institute.
