Introduction<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>By Jill Toliver Richardson, Editor<\/strong><\/p>\n

This special edition, Black and Latin@: Conceptualizing Afro-Latinidad in Afro-Latina\/o Literature and Performance<\/em><\/strong>,<\/em> focuses on the work of Afro-Latino\/a writers who are developing a literary and performance tradition, which delineates an Afro-Latina\/o experience in the United States and defines the elements of Afro-Latina\/o identity.\u00a0 Afro-Latina\/o writers within the United States are producing their own literary tradition that is deeply connected to the experiences of those of African heritage throughout Latin America and the Caribbean.\u00a0 Together they are demanding the recognition of Afro-Latinidad throughout the African diaspora. \u00a0This issue was conceived in response to recently published texts, including The Afro-Latin@ Reader: History and Culture in the United States<\/em> edited by Miriam Jim\u00e9nez Rom\u00e1n and Juan Flores 2010 (Duke UP), which examine various elements of Afro-Latinidades and provide diverse conceptualizations of Afro-Latina\/o identity within and beyond the U.S.\u00a0 Black and Latin@<\/em> explores the most pertinent topics in Afro-Latina\/o literature and performance including memory, the body, race, nation, diaspora, transnationalism, decolonial resistance, sexuality, gender and spirituality.\u00a0 The creative works featured in this issue represent the growing body of literature by Afro-Latina\/o writers writing within the US.\u00a0 In its entirety, Black and Latin@<\/em> reflects an expanding interest in the lived experiences of Afro-Latinx in the U.S. and beyond and signals the flourishing of an Afro-Latinx cultural movement in the 21st<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n
