Libertades literarias: Afrolatinoamérica escribe

Fall 2020.  Afrodescendent writing in Latin America explores formal literary decisions as opportunities to exercise authority, no matter how inevitable the content may be. Choices of form and technique are freedoms that ignite dreams, thought, reflection, and memory to outstrip existing conditions. They presage agency in a range of social constructions.
