racialized bodies in visual and textual culture
vi, 246 pages : color illustrations ; 24 cm
Constructed Latinx(s) Identities: Racialized Bodies in Visual and Textual Culture explores recent forms and interpretations of Latinx communities present in film, literature, television, and other cultural expressions. Using specific case studies, the authors of this collection delve into the intersections of identity in Latinx production and representation and challenge the colonial and modern power structures that have continuously racialized and gendered Latinx bodies. In addition to deconstructing these power structures, the chapters attempt to recover knowledge buried or shunned by colonialism and modernity, as well as offer alternative and nonhierarchical forms of defining Latinx and forming pluri-identitary and multivoiced communities. The concept of Latinx continues to evolve, to be renegotiated, and to be embedded with new meanings and subjectivities. As such, the authors of this volume not only encourage further debate about racialization and identity formation but also propel all scholars to question their positionality when approaching the concept of Latinx.
