Afro-Latin@s in Movement Critical Approaches to Blackness and Transnationalism in the Americas
Description
This book considers how ideas about blackness travel across the Americas via migration, and media, cultural, and political exchanges. It examines African-descended populations in Latin America and Afro-Latin@s in the United States in order to explore questions of black identity and representation, transnationalism, and diaspora. Afro-Latin@s in Movement explores diverse topics—from popular music to sports to political organizing—to consider the ways that blackness is imagined, embodied, and understood across the Americas.
