The Decolonial Imaginary is a smart; challenging book that disrupts a great deal of what we think we know... it will certainly be read seriously in Chicano/a studies." ―Women's Review of BooksEmma Pérez discusses the historical methodology which has created Chicano history and argues that the historical narrative has often omitted gender. She poses a theory which rejects the colonizer’s methodological assumptions and examines new tools for uncovering the hidden voices of Chicanas who have been relegated to silence.

Five StarsBy Olugbemiga OladokunGood job5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. IndespensableBy 00110011Quite frankly I think every student of Yoruba culture should own this book. While Gelede is the central object of study; the books touches on multiple aspects Yoruba and Orisa spirituality. The amount of information is so overwhelming that you will literally have to read it over and over again.
