The magazine I work for *ahem* is doing a big retrospective on Selena for the April issue. I hadn't thought much about her for years but I kinda got inspired by her 90s awesomeness.
I wore a bodycon dress to Carlen's Birthday and my friend Ellen exclaimed "Is that Leti, or is that Selena?" Best day ever obvs.
Years ago I thought about her a lot because I had studied Latin American Studies and Women's Studies and was a fan of Lourdes Portillo's film Corpus: A Home Movie About Selena, my favorite part was the roundtable of famous Chicana Feminists bitching each other out about her legacy and whether she was a hack (Sandra Cisneros I'm looking at you). In 2001 I worked with first grade girls who loves Selena even though they had been born after her death, and the school library carried several books about her life for young readers.
