Circuits of the Sacred - A Faggotology in the Black Latinx Caribbean

Examines transnational black Latinx Caribbean immigrant queer life and spirit. Drawing on theoretical analysis, memoir, creative writing, and ethnography of Santería/Lucumí in Santo Domingo, Havana, and New Jersey, Decena moves between languages, locations, pronouns, and genres to map the itineraries of blackness as a “circuit,” a multipronged and multisensorial field.
