I participated in the “Contemporary Latina/o/x Aesthetics” Stream at the American Comparative Literature Association, which was held on the UCLA campus. I presented a comparative analysis of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s use of Twitter, distinguishing his rhetoric of affiliation from that of other Latinx writers. Other panelists included:
John Alba Cutler, Northwestern University; Elda Maria Roman, University of Southern California; David Vázquez, University of Oregon; Jennifer Harford Vargas, Bryn Mawr College; Zorimar Rivera Montes, Northwestern University; Ariana Ruiz, University of Iowa; Tanya Gonzalez, Kansas State University; Julie Minich, The University of Texas at Austin; Eliza Rodriguez y Gibson, Loyola Marymount University.
