Toward the Fulfillment of Full Personhood: The Persistent Invisibility of Latinx Communities Across Institutions
Sun, April 24, 8:00 to 9:30am PDT (8:00 to 9:30am PDT), San Diego Convention Center, Floor: Upper Level, Ballroom 6FSession Type: Invited Speaker Session
Abstract
The demand for “paramount national citizenship” was the creed of the abolitionists after the civil war. And it has been an ambition of Mexican immigrants who settled in the US since the first communities were formed: to be treated equally and justly. (See: J. Gomez-Quiñones “Roots of Chicano Politics.”) A call to be treated as fully human has endured within and across the hugely diverse Latinx communities.
This session brings together intergenerational pairs of Latinx scholars to engage a range of relevant topics that both remain central or at the edges of new scholarship with implications for the field, the academy and communities. The pairs will engage a series of questions to create dynamic conversations that will cumulatively contribute to the larger focus on achieving full personhood as a community.
