Many--Afrolatino, indigenous, Muslim, queer and undocumented, living in large cities and small towns--are voices who have been chronically overlooked in how the diverse population of almost sixty million Latinos in the U.S. has been represented. No longer.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this empowering cross-country travelogue, journalist and activist Paola Ramos embarks on a journey to find the communities of people defining the controversial term, \"Latinx.\" She introduces us to the indigenous Oaxacans who rebuilt the main street in a post-industrial town in upstate New York, the \"Las Poderosas\" who fight for reproductive rights in Texas, the musicians in Milwaukee whose beats reassure others of their belonging, as well as drag queens, environmental activists, farmworkers, and the migrants detained at our border. Drawing on intensive field research as well as her own personal story, Ramos chronicles how \"Latinx\" has given rise to a sense of collectivity and solidarity among Latinos unseen in this country for decades. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA vital and inspiring work of reportage, \u003ci\u003eFinding Latinx\u003c\/i\u003e calls on all of us to expand our understanding of what it means to be Latino and what it means to be American. The first step towards change, writes Ramos, is for us to recognize who we are.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Finding Latinx: In Search of the Voices Redefining Latino Identity | Paola Ramos | Paperback | 9781984899095 | Used: Very Good | Sociology 1757526 (temp: 10)","offer_id":49176936120472,"sku":"1757526","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71U52CVRU2L.jpg?v=1780023723","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/finding-latinx-in-search-of-the-voices-redefining-latino-identity","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
