About The Book

Forgotten Texts Recovers Several Lyrical Poems By Contributors To Newspapers That Afro-Argentine Editors Published (1878-1888) And One From La Naciaon (1923) In Buenos Aires. It Presents Understudied Minority Discourses To The Global Community And Widens Appreciation Of Afro-Argentine Literary Production To Include Belles Lettres Content And Style For Placement Alongside More Well-Known Folkloric Payadas Tangos And Habaneras. These Poems Substitute Authentic Voices For Anthologized Hegemonic Negrista Texts By Non-Black Elites Whose Ventriloquism Drowns Out Themes Of Importance To Afrodescendants. Previously Overlooked Poems By Women Also Appear. Poems And Poets' Photographs Together Refute The Absence Of An Afro-Argentine Literary Tradition.
