Paperback. Condizione: Good. En esta veintena de textos que recorren cinco décadas, Luis Rafael Sánchez aborda de frente «el repudio feroz a la ignominia que representan los odios raciales», desde la esclavitud y la lucha por los derechos civiles en Estados Unidos hasta el homicidio de George Floyd, y de Nelson Mandela a Meghan Markle, en ensayos ya clásicos como «El pelo malo», «Las señas del Caribe», «Todo sobre la nariz» o «Soy negro y qué». Luis Rafael Sánchez celebra la aportación de la mulatez y la negritud a la historia y cultura del Caribe, y confronta los juicios y prejuicios en torno a las cuestiones de raza y de clase social que están presentes en el devenir político y social de Puerto Rico: «El idioma y la historia varían de Jamaica a Haití, de Aruba al Caribe hispánico. Pero la prietura permanece como la señal que hermana los piélagos antillanos». «La obra letrada de Luis Rafael Sánchez ha sido embajada errante de una nación sin embajadas. Imposible entender a Roma sin Virgilio, a Italia sin Dante, a España sin Cervantes, a Argentina sin Borges. Igualmente es imposible entender al Puerto Rico contemporáneo sin Luis Rafael Sánchez. Las culturas constituidas siempre descansan sobre los hombros de sus grandes artistas» --Luce López-Baralt y Aníbal González. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A collection of texts written over 50 years that deal with the racism and colorism present in Puerto Rico and America at large. Through over twenty texts spanning five decades, Luis Rafael Sánchez confronts racial hatred--from slavery and the fight for civil rights in the U.S., to the murder of George Floyd; from Nelson Mandela to Meghan Markle, in iconic essays such as «El pelo malo» (Bad Hair), and «Todo sobre la nariz» (Everything about the nose). Luis Rafael Sánchez celebrates the contributions of the Black and Afrolatino community to the history and culture of the Caribbean, confronting the prejudice around race and social class that is still present in Puerto Rico and visible in its day-to-day. …
