Cuban Literature in the Age of Black Insurrection: Manzano, Placido, and Afro-Latino Religion - Caribbean Studies Series
Matthew Pettway
Cuban debates about freedom and selfhood were never the exclusive domain of the white Creole elite. Pettway argues black Latin American authors did not abandon their African religious heritage to assimilate wholesale to the Catholic Church. By recognising the wisdom of African ancestors, they procured power in the struggle for black liberation.
