“...a play on words for the phrase ‘God Bless Our Home,’ then becomes less focused on religion, but more on women acting as Goddesses to uphold the home.”
Chicago multimedia artist
Runsy has crafted
a deeply moving
and autobiographical
zine known as
Que Las Diosas Bendigan
a Nuestro Hogar.
The free PDF
provides illustrations,
photography, and poetic
testimonies to the lives
of her three cousins
as well as to
the power
of a strong
motherly figure
helping them through
trials, tribulations,
and tragedy.
It's a captivating project,
one clearly close to
Runsy's heart,
and one that helps
to shine a light
on her life
as well as the life
of the strong women
that hold the foundation
as necessary figures
"in the life of a person
of color growing up
in the streets of Chicago."
