This essay contributes to current theories of latinidad by using ethnographic research to reveal how ordinary people, in this case individuals who are of both Puerto Rican and Mexican ancestry, theorize latinidad from their lived experiences. This essay is also a reclaiming of Elena Padilla as a vanguard scholar of Puerto Rican Studies, Latino Studies, and urban community studies. Building from her work and drawing from the insight of a generation that is the product of interLatino encounters in Chicago, I seek to demonstrate the multiple and uneven ways individuals theorize, practice, experience, and take part in everyday constructions of latinidad. I argue that manifestations of latinidad begin with these daily negotiations of identity. |
