Instead we now know "queerness," although always interested in questions of sexuality, is concerned with all identities that exist out of the mainstream, that lie outside of what is considered "normal." Therefore, this course is interested in those Latina/o identities that run against White and Latina/o mainstream sensibilities. Both dominant White culture and mainstream Latina/o communities have notions of appropriate and/or authentic Latina/o identities. This class critiques mainstream constructions of Latinidad by focusing in particular on Latinidades that exist in the margins of margins, like locas (effeminate gay Latinos), machas (butch lesbian Latinas), poor Latina mothers, trans* Latinas/os, Latina/p sex workers, and indigenous and Afro-Latinidades
