The Ethics of Im/mobility in 21st Century Dominican and Cuban Cultures

Über den Autor
Dr. Andrea Easley Morris is Associate Professor of Spanish at Louisiana State University and specializes in the literature and cultures of the Hispanic Caribbean. Her book, Afro-Cuban identity in Post-Revolutionary Novel and Film: Inclusion, Loss, and Cultural Resistance, was published by Bucknell University Press in 2012. The tension between textual/visual representation and material experience marked by race and gender appears as an ongoing concern in her work on the cultural expression of the Dominican Republic, Cuba, and Puerto Rico. For a future project, she is interested in studying the potential impact of an Afro-Caribbean Diasporic framework on secondary and post-secondary education in Louisiana, a Caribbean outpost in the U.S.
