In 2015, the Mexican state counted how many of its citizens
identified as Afro-Mexican for the first time since independence.
Finding Afro-Mexico reveals the transnational interdisciplinary
histories that led to this celebrated reformulation of Mexican
national identity. It traces the Mexican, African American, and
Cuban writers, poets, anthropologists, artists, composers,
historians, and archaeologists who integrated Mexican history,
culture, and society into the African Diaspora after the Revolution
of 1910. Theodore W. Cohen persuasively shows how these
intellectuals rejected the nineteenth-century racial paradigms that
heralded black disappearance when they made blackness visible first
in Mexican culture and then in post-revolutionary society. Drawing
from more than twenty different archives across the Americas, this
cultural and intellectual history of black visibility,
invisibility, and community-formation questions the racial,
cultural, and political dimensions of Mexican history and
Afro-diasporic thought.
