The Hungry Woman: A Mexican Medea

by Cherríe Moraga

Moderated by Monica Sanchez

A revolution in what was the United States had created separate territories for different racial groups. One territory is now African-American, one territory is now Native American, and another is now Latino and Hispanic. Patriarchies were established and homosexuals were forced to leave many of the areas because of politically conservative counter-revolutions. Medea lives in the border area around Phoenix, Arizona with her son Chac-Mool, and her girlfriend.  Medea’s husband Jasón wants to divorce Medea and take Chac-Mool with him back to Aztlán, where Jasón holds an important place in society that combines elements of the cultures.
