Josh welcomes Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodriguez to the Theater!

•

Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodriguez was born in Managua, Nicaragua but calls Nashville, Tennessee home. She got her Masters of Divinity from Vanderbilt University in the Spring of 2015. The bulk of her work is around making accessible, through story telling and curating content, the theories and heavy material that is oftentimes only taught in the racist/classist institutions known as academia. To date she has published over 200 articles online and participated in the Young Adult anthology "Nevertheless, We Persisted."

She started the platform Latina Rebels in 2013, and currently it boasts over 200k organic followers online. She has been featured in Telemundo, Univision, Mitú, Huffington Post Latino Voices, Guerrilla Feminism, Latina Mag, Cosmopolitan, Everyday Feminism, and was invited to the White House in the fall of 2016. She is unapologetic, angry, and uncompromising about protecting and upholding the stories of brown folks. Que viva la gente!

Currently she is writing her first full length non-fiction book with Seal Press from Hachette Livre, and due to be out in Spring 2021.

If you’d like to check out her or her work, you can find her socials at @priscadorcas everywhere or her website at www.priscadorcas.com. Her organization, Latina Rebels, is on all of the socials at @latinarebels.
