Latino Poetry

The Library of America Anthology

Poet Rigoberto Gonzales has created an exciting anthology that provides a brilliant insight into the legacy of Latino poetry in the United States. It covers the origins of Latino Poetry in the Americas and traces its trajectory to modern, living poets in the U.S., shaping the art form and the nation all the way to Texas and Houston. We are thrilled to say that Nuestra Palabra supported many of the poets in this powerful book before some of them were even published. We are excited to see the world catch up.

We have also commissioned a print to pair with the work titled “Labels,” created by Monica Villarreal, a Chicana danzante, organizer, and artist based in Houston.
