This #dwacuenticos chapbook was compiled by the answer to our October 2022 call for submissions titled: De Eso No Se Habla.Rompiendo silencios en una cultura que "de eso no se habla," thirty writers explore the silent, covert, and undefined experiences repeated generation after generation. This collection of creative non-fiction pieces breaks the silences that bind us and allows us to overcome trauma by discussing inappropriate, embarrassing, or shameful topics in the Dominican household.

This #dwacuenticos chapbook was compiled by the answer to our March 2022 call for submissions titled: La Doña. 12 contributing Dominican writers shared narratives of women in their families who have carried the weight of protecting, guiding, and educating in a society where men are dominant, and the home is ruled by the woman. They described the women who have fought and embraced the expectations of the matriarchal role and what they left behind.
