Building on insights of environmental justice scholarship as well as critical race and ethnic studies, the editors and contributors to Latinx Environmentalisms map the ways Latinx cultural texts integrate environmental concerns with questions of social and political justice. Original interviews with creative writers, including Cherríe Moraga, Helena María Viramontes, and Héctor Tobar, as well as new essays by noted scholars of Latinx literature and culture, show how Latinx authors and cultural producers express environmental concerns in their work. These chapters, which focus on film, visual art, and literature--and engage in fields such as disability studies, animal studies, and queer studies--emphasize the role of racial capitalism in shaping human relationships to the more-than-human world and reveal a vibrant tradition of Latinx decolonial environmentalism. Latinx Environmentalisms accounts for the ways Latinx cultures are environmental, but often do not assume the mantle of "environmentalism.""--Provided by vendor. 606 $aAmerican literature$xHispanic American authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnvironmentalism in literature 606 $aEnvironmentalism in art 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHispanic American authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnvironmentalism in literature. 615 0$aEnvironmentalism in art. 676 $a810.9868073 700 $aWald$b Sarah D$01047400 702 $aWald$b Sarah D. 702 $aPulido$b Laura 702 $aAlaimo$b Stacy$f1962- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910494733703321 996 $aLatinx environmentalisms$92474966 997 $aUNINA
