Historicizing Los Angeles : Envisioning New Educational Futures in Latinx Radical Imaginations
Fri, April 10, 1:45 to 3:15pm PDT (1:45 to 3:15pm PDT), Los Angeles Convention Center, Floor: Level Two, Room 403ASession Type: Invited Speaker Session
Abstract
Inspired by Los Angeles—the creative space where solidarities are built, futures are rehearsed, and radical educational imaginaries are part of its history—an interdisciplinary, intergenerational collective of Latinx scholars reimagine the possible, crafting a new analytical framework and transformative lens through which to develop historicized perceptions of the multiple worlds of Latinidad; a new framework that aspires to the “not-yet-here,” the proleptic imagination. Mindful of historical inequities, misrepresentations, homogenizations, and erasure of Latinx communities, a different social imagination is leveraged—one that rejects the binaries that maintain deficit views of individuals and communities, benefitting some, while further marginalizing, invisibilizing, and harming others; focusing instead on the pluralities, the multiplicities of what it means to be Latinx educationally and in civic/social life.
