Award-winning writer, editor and filmmaker Sandra Guzmán once heard an alarming statistic: Every 14 days, an Indigenous language dies around the world.
"What clicked was this notion that whenever we think about writers, we don't automatically think of a Latin American woman writer," Guzmán told."We don't think of an Esmeralda Santiago or a Sandra Cisneros ... or Guadeloupe's masterful writer Maryse Condé or Edwidge Danticat." "We are one of the most multilingual, multiethnic, multiracial, multireligious regions in the world," Guzmán said."So for me, it was really important to convey that diversity."
