Abstract:
Puerto Rican communities have been a reality in many northeastern urban centers for over a century. Schools and classrooms have felt their presence through the Puerto Rican children attending school. The education of Puerto Ricans in U.S. schools has been documented for about seventy years, but in spite of numerous commissions, research reports, and other studies, this history is largely unknown to teachers and the general public. In addition to the research literature, a growing number of fictional accounts in English are providing another fertile avenue for understanding the challenges that

Abstract:
This essay examines the aesthetics and politics of one of the key figures in the emergence of the Caribbean anti-imperial imaginary in the nineteenth century: the Afro–Puerto Rican activist Ramón Emeterio Betances (1827–98). Through a critical interpretation of Les deux Indiens (1857), a romantic novella about the conquest of Puerto Rico, and “A Cuba Libre” (1871), a biographical essay about Haiti’s first president, Alexandre Pétion, the author explores Betances’s vision of Caribbean unity and its connections to race, gender, republicanism, and decolonization.

Abstract:
RESUMEN: En este ensayo analizo la particular re-flexión de géneros que Manuel Ramos Otero ejecuta en el relato “El cuento de la mujer del mar” (1979). Sostengo que el escritor en esta narrativa elabora lo que aquí denomino ficción crítica, es decir, una práctica escritural en la que el “fabuloso cuentero” deviene en crítico literario, borroneando de esta manera las fronteras discursivas que separan la ficción de la crítica literaria, la biografía de la crítica literaria y la biografía de la autobiografía. Ramos Otero realiza una ficción crítica de la vida y obra de la poeta puertorriqueña Jul

Abstract:
This essay examines the possibly subversive functions of cynical enunciations as found in Puerto Rican author Rafael Acevedo’s 2014 novel Al otro lado del muro hay carne fresca (There’s Fresh Meat on the Other Side of the Wall). It asks how the relocation of the cynical figure from a factual context into the world of dystopian fiction and metafiction may challenge a passive stance and allude to alternative enunciations beyond the reaffirmation of an extant neoliberal power structure. Through the stubborn insistence on the continuity of cynical discourse, as ambiguous and ever self-scrutinizing

Abstract:
In “Beyond the Pen: Of Arrivals, Tricky Encounters, and Activism in Vieques, PR,” Dr. Torres-Vélez presents an ethnographic account of the United States Navy’s activities in Vieques, Puerto Rico, and the resulting environmental degradation and health crisis experienced by the island’s inhabitants. The author argues that the US Navy’s military occupation of Vieques for over 60 years, and the subsequent contamination of the island’s landscapes, represents a modernity that endangers human lives and health through “conspiracies of invisibilities.” These conspiracies obscure the links between envir

Abstract:
Inspired by Jesús Colón's A Puerto Rican in New York and Other Sketches, the introduction highlights the role that history, memoir, and autobiographical fiction invariably play in most empirically sound and theoretically sophisticated Latinx humanistic social sciences. The open-endedness of Colón’s “sketches”—their critical pedagogical aspect and how they lend themselves to pointed yet fluid discussions—drives our approach to the humanistic social sciences in Latinx/a/o studies in the form of critical diálogos. For Colón, sketches were intended to bequeath a historical record and tradition and
