Finding Latinx: In Search of the Voices Redefining Latino Identity by Paola Ramos

Drawing on intensive field research as well as her own personal story, journalist and activist Paola Ramos chronicles how “Latinx” has given rise to a sense of collectivity and solidarity among Latinos unseen in this country for decades. 

A Nation Of Women by Luisa Capetillo

Puerto Rican activist Luisa Capetillo advocates for a workers’ revolution, forcefully demanding an end to the exploitation and subordination of workers and women. Her essays cover topics such as sexuality, mental and physical health, hygiene, spirituality, and nutrition. Originally published in Spanish in 1911, Mi opinión is considered by many to be the first feminist treatise in Puerto Rico and one of the first in Latin America and the Caribbean. 

A Borderlands View on Latinos, Latin Americans, and Decolonization: Rethinking Mental Health by Pilar Hernandez Wolfe

This book assists new generations of Latino/as and of those involved in Latino culture and Latin America in understanding how the colonization of the Americas is still tied to current issues of migration from the South to the North and how mental health practices have been created and maintained from the wound of coloniality.
