Extract
The fourth critical diálogo builds upon a seminal literature on borders and the carceral state to situate “the Mexico/US border” in relation to everyday familial experiences with state-sanctioned violence. We examine the political weight of global parallels, particularly in light of social justice initiatives to abolish repressive and white supremacist border-maintaining institutions, like ICE. The framing question for the critical diálogo in this section is: What can we uncover from placing the Mexico–US border, as a material manifestation of US nativism and imperialism in Latinx Studies, that extends to education, housing, and other institutions in everyday life?
Leisy Abrego and Esther Hernández approach this question by challenging the assumption that only in recent times have immigrant families endured separation and confinement at the various borders in the Central/North America isthmus. Vanessa Rosa further considers other forms of boundary policing through an analysis of policy makers rationales for and restrictions placed on Puerto Ricans in New York City public housing. Regarding Palestinians and Puerto Rican solidarity work, Sara Awartani documents the administrative manipulation of college student activism, while Lorena Garcia centers on the disciplining of Latina adolescent sexuality in public schools. Finally, turning to transnational Garifuna populations not easily contained by nation-state borders, Paul Joseph López Oro discusses the articulation and monitoring of Afro-Indigenous Latinidades in Central America and the diaspora.
