Synopsis

Women of the Corn It is a tapestry of voices that cross oceans, mountains and borders. Twelve racialized migrant women come together to write from memory, the wound and hope, weaving together stories that speak of farewells and arrivals, of lost and reinvented territories, of everyday resistance and collective struggles. 

Each story is a grain of corn: unique, vital, full of history and future. Together they form a literary cornfield where nostalgia coexists, uprooting, the Language in transformation, racism confronted, and support networks that save lives. Their stories are more than testimonies: they are acts of affirmation, meeting places for those who have had to rebuild their lives far from their place of origin. 

This collective project asserts the right to tell their own story in their own words., Without colonial filters or exoticizing perspectives. It is a book that sows memory, denunciation, and tenderness; a reminder that migrations are not just physical journeys., but also emotional journeys, political and spiritual.
