"Thank you for such a memorable evening. I was very inspired to hear the voices of 8 Latina women who have met life's challenges and made the choice to live freely by following their passion. Their strength is powerful and present in their voices. Please continue to speak mujeres... we need more positive examples of women who succeed in our lives." - Germaine Franco

I am so glad I received this email in time to be able to see this incredible performance yesterday at Casa 0101. What a way to celebrate Herstory Month! I am deeply grateful to all eight writers who opened their souls so deeply and to the eight actresses who acted - no - who lived - these stories as if they were coming out of their bones/guts/hearts. This is truly a HIT! Please go and tell your friends (women and men, and not necessarily atinos/Chicanos).
