Chulita YellowBlackBird - A Love Letter To My Homegirls

“This is a love letter to my homegirls. The ones that build and choose to nurture friendships through the years. The ones that are there through the heartache. The ones that are down for desmadre. The ones that hold your hair back after too much desmadre. With no condition. The ones that temporarily cross paths. To the ones you meet up for cafecito y chisme and get stuck in airports in Miami with. And to the backstabbers, opportunists, and gaslighters, this is for you, too.”

— Chulita YellowBlackBird
