D. Pérez

Rethinking Chicana/o and Latina/o Popular Culture

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Through a gender, ethnicity, and sexuality lens, Pérez demonstrates that queer Chicana/o and Latina/o identities are much more prevalent in cultural production than most people think. By claiming a variety of characters and texts as queer, he expands the breadth of queer representation in cultural production.

Rezensionen

"Daniel Enrique Pérez is a titan of Jotería Studies. He blasts the canon to show that the sexual identity of Latinos is far less stable than is conventionally thought." - Ilán Stavans, Author of The Hispanic Condition and On Borrowed Words
