Barbara Jane Reyes answers the questions of Filipino American girls and
young women of color with bold affirmations of hardwon empathy fierce
intelligence and a finetuned BS detector The Brown Girl of these poems is
fed up with being shushed with being constantly told how foreign and
unattractive and unwanted she is Shes flipping tables and throwing chairs
Shes raising her voice Shes keeping a sharp focus on the violences
committed against her every day and shes writing through the depths of her
otherness to find beauty and even grace amidst her rage Simultaneously
looking into the mirror and out into the world Reyes exposes the sensitive
nerveendings of life under patriarchy as a visible immigrant woman of color
as she reaches towards her unflinching center
