Abstract

As one of the few Spanish-speaking voices in the Haitian diaspora, the writer, painter and activist Micheline Dusseck is on the fringes of both Spanish and Haitian literary criticism. The article analyzes how she brings to light in her work the marginalized experiences of the subaltern women of Haiti whose particular invisibility is outlined by the intersection of race, class and gender.
