The legendary writer, performer, artist, activist, poet, feminist, and founder of the Macondo Homeland for Writers (@macondowriters): @officialsandracisneros for @tricyclemag / The Buddhist Review I lived in San Francisco in the early 90s and can still see “The House on Mango Street” sitting on the new releases table at Dog Eared Books on Valencia Street. It was a milestone when it came out. Sandra’s newest book, “Woman without Shame,” is a book of poetry, the first in twenty-eight years. Thank you, Nina @magnoliasandfrogs, for this fantastic opportunity. Always the activist, during our photo shoot, without missing a beat, the first thing Sandra did was turn to my young cis female assistant and ask, point blank, “ Is he (meaning me) paying you?!” Brilliant! I wouldn’t have expected anything less. I would have asked the same.❤️💫
