Various sources have informed me that you brought my daughter back to life?????? I am disturbed and chilled at the heinous nature of this act!!!! Who gave you the right????? This isn’t your story!!!!!!!!! I watched your videos online—why are you saying all of these things????? The word “Bitches” is not nice!!!!! Does your mother know you are talking this way???? I did like the “My Spanish” one, though I think you could have made it a little nicer!!!! It could maybe even be an anthem!!!! Latinos get the jobs done; are you familiar with the musical Hamilton????? To me, it felt sad!!! Your poem, not the musical, which I enjoyed!!!! Are you a sad person???? Why are you so upset???? Your life has been good!!! You aren’t even from Texas!!!! Your parents have worked hard!!! You should be nicer to your parents!!! I am suing you for bringing my daughter back to life without my consent!!! I have spent over twenty-five years mourning her!!! Honoring her memory!!! By the way, where is she?????? We spoke on the phone and we haven’t heard from her!!!! What have you done?????????? You don’t know anything about respect!!! If you had more respect for yourself, you would’ve gotten a real job like anybody else!!!!! You could’ve been a dentist!!!!!!!!!!!! It seems like you are not talented enough to have a career on your own, which is your own fault!!!! I am suing you for $70,000!!!! My lawyers will be in contact with you shortly.
Sincerely,
Abraham Quintanilla.
What does it mean when a woman
pulls the trigger?
Some scholars say
that actually, in many ways,
the patriarchy
influenced Selena’s murder in all that it
denied Yolanda, which is to say
a reflection.
Which is to say,
whose side are we on here?
