Entre Puerto Rico y Richmond: A Conversation on Embodied Decolonial Creation with Alicia Díaz & Patricia Herrera

Abstract

This text is a result of a collaborative process orbiting a collaborative project, a conversation stemming from events centered on Entre Puerto Rico y Richmond: Women in Resistance Shall Not Be Moved. This award-winning film² performance/dance film—most recently presented in March 2022 at the University of Richmond and in November 2021 at the College of William & Mary’s Muscarelle Museum—is a product of a collaborative ethos in which all participants are recognized as co-creators. One of its main messages is a focus on linkages, the entre [between], that suggests what powerful women like Luisa Capetillo called for and worked toward.
