Rise of the Sapatão: Race, Gender, and Decolonialization
Rise of the Sapatão:Race, Gender, and Decolonialization Tanya Saunders (bio) "... the struggle of our new millennium will be one between the ongoing imperative of securing the well-being of our present ethnoclass (i.e. Western bourgeois) conception of the human, man, which overrepresents itself/ourselves. Because of this overrepresentation, which is defined ... as the coloniality of being/power/truth/freedom, any attempt to unsettle the coloniali…
Queer Freedom: Black Sovereignty, by Ana-Maurine Lara
TheorizingKuirlombismosand Black Liberation across the Diaspora
This essay has three goals: First, to illustrate the epistemological interventions of Black Brazilian queer artivists in theories of Black liberation through naming and defining their sexual-dissident-subjectivities and the affective modes they engender, such as the feeling of solidão (solitude). Second, to contribute to efforts to decolonize the academy in the Americas more broadly, by pointing to the emergent Black queer archives and repertoire…
Introduction: From Solidão, to Isolation, to Solidão-rity
Introduction:From Solidão, to Isolation, to Solidão-rity Luciane Ramos Silva, Tanya L. Saunders, and Sarah Soanirina Ohmer "O que se pretende mostrar é que neste contexto social se definam as lógicas, que orientam processos de afetividade, emoções, dinâmicas de identidade de relações sociais, de dominação, de estratificações, de onde partem de escolhas ... o motivo é colonizador e que o racismo e o sexismo são ideologias e práticas socioculturais…
Epistemologia negra sapatão como vetor de uma práxis humana libertária
Nesse ensaio, a autora oferece algumas reflexões sobre como uma epistemologia negra sapatão pode ser um dos pontos produtivos para pensar uma teoria de liberação decolonial. A autora coloca que a definição do "Humano" está baseada no processo colonial através do qual a elite do mundo ocidental entrou no projeto de definir quem é um ser humano e quem não é. Usando uma pesquisa sobre o desenvolvimento das ideologias de raça, gênero e sexualidades n…
Negro Soy Yo: Hip Hop and Raced Citizenship in Neoliberal Cuba, written by Marc D. Perry
Towards a transnational hip-hop feminist liberatory praxis: A view from the Americas
The author argues that hip-hop feminism has come to a point where it needs to take a transnationalist turn if it is going to realize its potential to be a twenty-first century feminist praxis. The author highlights how people speaking from a U.S. American context inadvertently become a global referent for anti-oppression movements and subjectivities. Unfortunately, by virtue of being in one of the centers of global power, becoming a global refere…
Cuban Underground Hip Hop: Black Thoughts, Black Revolution, Black Modernity
In the wake of the 1959 Cuban Revolution, a key state ideology developed: racism was a systemic cultural issue that ceased to exist after the Revolution, and any racism that did persist was a result of contained cases of individual prejudice perpetuated by US influence. Even after the state officially pronounced the end of racism within its borders, social inequalities tied to racism, sexism, and homophobia endured, and, during the economic liber…

Black Thoughts, Black Activism: Cuban Underground Hip-hop and Afro-Latino Countercultures of Modernity
A study of the symbols employed by the Cuban underground hip-hop movement based on ethnographic data gathered in Havana from 1998 to 2006 situates the movement as one of a number of transnational Afro-diasporic cultural movements for social equality. Afro-Cuban young people's commitment to socially conscious hip-hop links them to a larger history of African and Afro-diasporic activism in the arts. Un estudio de los símbolos utilizados por el movi…
Grupo Oremi: Black Lesbians and the Struggle for Safe Social Space in Havana
Since 2003, mainstream American newspapers such as the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times have published featured pieces with titles such as “The Sexual Revolution in Contemporary Cuba.” The main argument of these pieces is that things have gotten so much better for Cuba's lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) citizens that one simply has to walk through central Havana to see the large numbers of gays, men who have sex with men, an…
