Day 27: 30 Day Latin@ Blog Challenge

Day 27 – Favorite Latino Author

I dont know. I do know who I don’t sweat or love, and those are considered “unpopular” b/c so many folks love and adore them. I can have a list from the top of my head and LatiNegras would start it such as:

Mayra Santos-Febres

Erika Lopez

Sofia Quintero aka Black Artemis

Aida Hurtado

Sandra Cisneros

Piri Thomas

Larry La Fountain Stokes

Charles Rice-Gonzalez

Miguel Piñero

These are just a few but they are the folks that I also use when I teach. I’ve had Sofia’s books be required texts in my classes focusing on gender, race, class, women, art, etc. Mayra Santos-Febres has an amazing erotic story called Fe en disfraz/Faith in Disguise.
