In this historical and social study, historian VKY (Victoria Kabeya) puts the emphasis on the two original founders of the modern culture wrongly known as "Latin". It is through the exploration of the effects of Iberian colonialism that the author synthesises the rich heritage and real brotherhood and legacy left by these two groups which have been oppressed since 1492. As they have always evolved next to one another, as one group, it is through their descendants, the children of the diaspora spread throughout the East and West Coast, that the unity is celebrated through the incredible musical genres they have created together. Though a decolonial work written from the African and Natives perspectives, the authors explains the reasons behind the repetition of the colonial tactics the groups always had to face in the industry: the whitewashing of their genres, their inner erasures, the colonial Latin techniques behind the false promotion of Mestizaje as a way to deny the horror of their conception and the economic and racial wars resulting from years of manipulation from the dominant entities. From Selena Quintanilla, Eazy E, Bronwside, Big Pun, Tupac, to Nipsey Hussle, Sadboy Loko, YG or Kat Deluna, NORE and Nina Sky, the author invites to the impact left by artists who have always wanted to enhance the unity first showcased by the Natives and the enslaved Africans.Photo credit for the cover, inside the book.
