    Tune in to the second episode of our podcast, where we sit down with Dr. Rocío Aranda-Alvarado to discuss her recent publication, A Handbook of Latinx Art (2025). This is the first anthology to explore the rich, deep, and often overlooked contributions that Latinx artists have made to art in the United States. Drawn from wide-ranging sources, this volume includes texts by artists, critics, and scholars from the 1960s to the present that reflect the diversity of the Latinx experience across the nation, from the West Coast and the Mexican border to New York, Miami, and the Midwest.

    Dr. David Tenorio | Queer Relajo. Feeling the Nightscapes of Mexicanidad

    Tune in to the first episode of our podcast, where we sit down with Dr. David Tenorio to discuss the recent release of his book Queer Relajo: Feeling the Nightscapes of Mexicanidad (2025). In his publication, Dr. Tenorio explores the vibrant cultural production of queer and trans communities in Mexico and the United States. As he puts it, “Mobilizing nightlife practices across regions, jotería shapes a way of being in the world for diasporic queers and trans folk across Mexico and the US.” Spanning six chapters, the book examines how relajo operates as a powerful mode of navigating affect, race, sexuality, and citizenship through the lens of nightlife.
