Dismissing the Boundaries of Latinx Poetry

(Kenning JP García, Daphne Maysonet, Raina J. León, Darrel Alejandro Holnes, Victorio Reyes Asili)

The poets in this panel refuse to allow for a singular definition for Latinx poetry. Rather, these artists and antiartists see the domain of Latinx poetry as fluid, constantly open for re-definition. Such broadening of our understanding helps to demand space for the expanding dimensions of Latinx heritage, beyond borders and inclusive of Afro, Trans, queer, and feminist Latinx identities. Such boundary shattering poetry is manifested on the page in a wide range of styles, forms, and techniques.
