Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

From a governmental perspective, multiculturalism tends to be reduced to a hollow celebration of superficial differences, a strategic policy to control and contain forms of difference that actually require a process of community awareness to open towards the other, rather than merely tolerate it. This essay examines the writing of several Mexican-Americans and Chicano authors through the approach of their thought border. Gloria Anzaldúa’s and Cherrie Moraga’s poems illuminate perspectives of such conceptual strength as Chandra Talpade Mohanty’s most theoretical and academic discourse. The poets, performative artists and academics I consider in this work build intercultural bridges as solidary and collective response against commercial, military and government powers who speak of erasing borders when it comes to the free flow of money and hand cheap labor, but that want close them to prohibit the free flow of ideas and creative beings who seek a better life. Desde una perspectiva gubernamental, el multiculturalismo tiende a reducirse a una hueca celebración de diferencias superficiales; una política estratégica para controlar y contener las formas de diferencia que en realidad requieren un proceso de conscientización comunitaria para abrirse hacia el otro, en vez de simplemente tolerarlo. Este ensayo examina la escritura de varios autores mexicano-americanos y chicanas/os a través del enfoque de su pensamiento fronterizo. Poemas de Gloria Anzaldúa y Cherríe Moraga iluminan perspectives con tanta fuerza conceptual como el discurso más teórico-académico de Chandra Talpade Mohanty. Tanto los poetas, los artistas performativos y los académicos que considero en este trabajo construyen puentes interculturales como respuesta colectiva y solidaria en contra de los poderes comerciales, militares, y gubernamentales que hablan de borrar las fronteras cuando se trata del libre flujo de dinero y mano de obra barata, pero que las quieren cerrar para prohibir el flujo libre de ideas creativas y seres que buscan una vida mejor.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
