Inocencia racial

Desenmascarando la antinegritud de los latinos y la lucha por la igualdad

Author: Tanya Katerí Hernández

“Profound and revelatory, Racial Innocence tackles head-on the insidious grip of white supremacy on our communities and how we all might free ourselves from its predation. Tanya Katerí Hernández is fearless and brilliant . . . . What fire!”—Junot Díaz

The first comprehensive book about anti-Black bias in the Latino community that unpacks the misconception that Latinos are “exempt” from racism due to their ethnicity and multicultural background

Inocencia racial saca a la luz las voces silenciadas de las víctimas afrolatinas y afroamericanas de la antinegritud de los latinos. Mediante estudios de casos jurídicos que prueban la discriminación, Hernández, profesora afrolatina de Derecho y experta en ‘CRT’ la teoría crítica de la raza, desmiente la alegación de que la cultura de los latinos, por ser mestiza, los escuda del prejuicio. Con ejemplos diversos que nunca llegan a los titulares e incluyen los contextos del trabajo, el mercado de vivienda, las escuelas, los lugares de recreación y la justicia criminal, Hernández prueba la existencia del racismo latino.

Inocencia racial demuestra que el racismo en Estados Unidos es complejo y multifacético, y que es posible que un grupo históricamente marginado—que ahora constituye el segundo grupo racial/étnico más grande de los Estados Unidos—sea víctima de la discriminación y a la vez discrimine. Este análisis pionero, valiente y urgente de la antinegritud latina y cómo enfrentarla correctamente impugnará y transformará nuestras discusiones acerca de la raza.
