Amanda Hernández – författare

The poems featured in this award-winning collection contemplate the realities of the contemporary Puerto Rican experience. Rooted in the archipelago's landscapes and the emotional topographies of diaspora, this collection confronts the fallout from colonialism while celebrating the sustaining power of friendship, memory, artistry, and collective love.Holding together a scattered geography, the poems recognize land as both tangible territory and collective imaginary, reflecting on interconnected political, social, and economic crises that shape the intimacies of everyday life. With striking clarity and intimate reverence, Amanda Hernández names the fractures—and the hopes—that shape contemporary Puerto Rican life, ultimately affirming love as the force that endures.

In Intersectional Identities of Christian Women in the United States: Faith, Race, and Feminism, Amanda Hernandez explores the complex relationship between Christianity and feminism in the United States. Often, feminism and faith are seen as contradictory to each other. Through sociological analysis that includes content analysis, survey data, and interviews with over forty Christian women, the author argues this seeming contradiction is rooted in white supremacy. Further, she examines how whiteness, racism, and experiences of sexism shape feminist identities in religious contexts. By centering the experiences of Christian women, this study challenges existing narratives and calls for a more nuanced understanding, of feminism and faith in the United States.
