10. Having a queer and Latina superhero like America Chavez is important, now more than ever. When asked in an interview with Refinery29 about how America will represent women, Rivera had this to say:
“I love women. I love myself. I feel like sometimes I’m not considered a woman. People assume I’m a masculine kind of person because I wear hats or boots. And to me, womanhood is so flexible and so ever-expanding and how beautiful is it to show all the ways that it manifests? And especially when it comes to Latinas and Black women. Our bodies’ shapes and sizes vary, and are equally supported by the community and equally loved.”
