The first book length study of this genre, Collective Identity and
Cultural Resistance in Contemporary Chicana/o Autobiography
facilitates new understandings of how people and cultures are
displaced and reinvent themselves. Through the examination of
visual arts and literature, Juan Velasco analyzes the space for
self-expression that gave way to a new paradigm in contemporary
Chicana/o autobiography. By bringing together self-representation
with complex theoretical work around culture, ethnicity, race,
gender, sex, and nationality, this work is at the crossroads of
intersectional analysis and engages with scholarship on the
creation of cross-border communities, the liberatory dimensions of
cultural survival, and the reclaiming of new art fashioned against
the mechanisms of violence that Mexican-Americans have endured.
