THE FEMINISTING FIVE:
NATALIA GARCIA PASMANICK
“All culture is political; all art is political. I don’t consider myself a political artist for this reason… As a queer, mujer artist I struggle to not let myself be defined by the extremely narrow conception of femininity, beauty or desirability that controls how marketable we are in this industry.”
On Selena Quintanilla:
“To me, she represents someone who exercised cultural resistance and is a feminist because she demanded cultural self-determination… She chose to make music for her comunidad. She refused to assimilate and, to me, that’s a profound act of cultural resistance.”
