Las Hijas de la Madre are a queer Chicanx feminist punk band fronted by Amalia Ortiz, American Book Award winner for Oral Literature. Las Hijas center Tejana voices and explore the correlation of Chicanx rasquachismo and the do-it-yourself ethos of punk. They radically re-envision a historically white, male expression through the lens of intersectional feminism. Image credits: Artwork installation by Liv Styler, photo courtesy of Claire S.
