It surveys the variety of Latino/Latina writing, exploring how these writers represent community, class, race, gender, culture, nation, and ethnicity. Fiction, poetry, essays, autobiographical prose, and dramatic works by authors such as Rudolfo Anaya, Sandra Cisneros, Nicholasa Mohr, and others will be studied.CUNY Pathways: Flexible Core-U.S. Experience in it's Diversity
