This is a compilation of poems written over the last two decades. As a teenager I was given the honor to become part of the decolonization process and to begin my liberation process. With each lesson learned and book read, I began to see myself as an Indigenous woman. No longer did I wish for an identity of false pride or self-hate. I began to know who I was and I began to understand the system of white supremacy. I offer you these poems with love and a hope that you too will understand this hidden history. These are my poetic expressions of the decolonization process of an Indigenous woman who represents one example of Native American, Mexican, Central American, and South American experience as Indigenous people under European occupation. I am an Indigenous woman. These poems are my obsidian blades meant to rip through and destroy the matrix of white supremacy racism. This is my offering.
