Abstract
This panel reconfigures modes of knowledge production in relation to Anglophone studies where US Latinx-related works are often disregarded, erased, misrepresented, and misused. Not only are such works overlooked, but their producers–who often identify as non-white and/or not along heteronormative identities, and write in languages other than standard English–are not considered legitimate within the academy. Specifically, we will discuss the ways in which critical interventions can take place at pedagogical and research levels.
