This Bridge We Call Communication: Anzaldúan Approaches to Theory, Method, and Praxis explores contemporary communication research studies, performative writing, poetry, Latina/o studies, and gender studies through the lens of Gloria Anzaldúa’s theories, methods, and concepts. Utilizing different methodologies and approaches—testimonio, performative writing, and interpretive, rhetorical, and critical methodologies—the contributors provide original research on contexts including healing and pain, woundedness, identity, Chicana and black feminisms, and experiences in academia.

Leandra H. Hernández is independent scholar and teaches communication courses at National University, Trident University International, and the University of Houston. Robert Gutierrez-Perez is assistant professor of culture and communication in the Department of Communication Studies at the University of Nevada, Reno.
