In his writings and in his declaration (Montecristo Manifesto), he is among the first Latin Americanists to envision the future of Cuba and the rest of Latin America with the full and equal inclusion of Indians and Blacks. However, he also unwillingly created the foundation for a paternalistic, colorblind social order which contributed to the marginalization of those who fell short of the cis-gendered male Eurocuban ideal. Relying primarily on Martí’s own writings, some of which has yet to be translated into English, Miguel De La Torre provides a critical assessment of Martí and shows how some of his work contributes to the construction of intra-Cuban oppression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNotes Concerning Translation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1:Martí, machos, y maricones: Complicity with Heteronormativity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2:Los indios: Complicity with Appropriation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3:Los negros: Complicity with Colorblindness\u003c\/p\u003eChapter 4:Los chinos: Complicity with Exclusion \u003cp\u003eChapter 5:Las mujeres: Complicity with Toxic Masculinity\u003c\/p\u003eBibliography","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041272070487,"sku":"9781538190678","price":65.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781538190678.jpg?v=1750949604","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/reading-jose-marti-from-the-margins-9781538190678","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
