How is Nuyorican poetry a sign of Puerto Rican identity? | Diasporican Educational Program

Описание: This video is from Unit Four of the Diasporican Educational Program.

This unit, Reinterpreting Puerto Rican Signs, is based on the idea that culture is symbolic behavior organized through signs. This unit demonstrates how the Puerto Rican Diasporas reworked important signs and popular discourses about racial democracy, migration, linguistic purity, and national symbols, making them more attuned to their diasporic experience.


What does the Diasporican Educational Program offer? A self-guided course teaching the social history of the Puerto Rican Diaspora throughout time across borders, language, identity, histories, and more.
