"The experiences of Latinas/os with race and ethnicity, with exile and
emigration, with bilingualism, with failed nationalism, with suspended
or never granted citizenship, with religious acculturation, with the
romance and disappointment of socialist revolutionary projects, has
afforded them a particularly vast historical memory.

"This may allow them to articulate new postnational, postglobal
projects of humanization that speak in the name of a coming
universalism in which many worlds are made possible."
