This book examines the transnational dynamics that shape Latina affect narrative from the 1990s through the twenty-first century. Villanueva-Nieves argues that Latina narratives function as affective maps, using storytelling to chart emotional landscapes experienced differently by Mestizas, white Latinas, and Black Latinas across various historical periods and transnational territories. The analysis presented in this work demonstrates that Latina affect, as a tool for spacemaking, not only counters the dominant forces of US white supremacy but also interacts with Latin American racial ideologies, such as mestizaje and blanqueamiento.
