Amefrica in Letters: Literary Interventions from Mexico to the Southern Cone

Jennifer Carolina Gomez Menjivar,Paulette Ramsay,Juan Guillermo Sanchez Martinez,Michael Handelsman,Gloria Chacon

AmEfrica in Letters brings together new research on Black literary history in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries-a period that saw the consolidation of Black power movements and human rights struggles across the Americas.

The Black writers examined here have left an enduring legacy on AmEfrica’s mainland. Following Brazilian theorist LElia Gonzalez, the volume highlights how their prose and poetry have challenged the overarching theme of mestizo-imagined multiculturalism that endures in the region’s mainstream publishing industry.
