The Sense of Brown is Jose Esteban Munoz's treatise on brownness
and being as well as his most direct address to queer Latinx
studies. In this book, which he was completing at the time of his
death, Munoz examines the work of playwrights Ricardo Bracho and
Nilo Cruz, artists Nao Bustamante, Isaac Julien, and Tania
Bruguera, and singer Jose Feliciano, among others, arguing for a
sense of brownness that is not fixed within the racial and national
contours of Latinidad. This sense of brown is not about the
individualized brown subject; rather, it demonstrates that for
brown peoples, being exists within what Munoz calls the brown
commons-a lifeworld, queer ecology, and form of collectivity. In
analyzing minoritarian affect, ethnicity as a structure of feeling,
and brown feelings as they emerge in, through, and beside art and
performance, Munoz illustrates how the sense of brown serves as the
basis for other ways of knowing and being in the world.
