Synopsis

PALABRITAS is a Latinx literary publication based out of Harvard College with the mission of creating a space for Latinx writers to showcase their work, regardless of prior publishing experience. Thus, our goal is to publish intriguing work by authors that have published before alongside others who've never shared their work publicly. We publish all kinds of creative writing: poetry, short fiction, memoir, personal essay, creative non-fiction, and pieces that don't quite fit a mold. We welcome Latinx authors of any age, background, and experience. Thanks to the painstaking work of our contributors, this issue forces readers to expand their conceptions of Latinidad and Latinx literature. We have work from authors who are black and Asian, racial identities that are often erased in constructions of the Latinx ethnicity. Queer and trans poets challenge the homophobia, transphobia, and gender roles ingrained in many Latinx cultures. We have authors writing in Ecuador and the Czech Republic, forcing us to question “Latinx” as a purely U.S.-based distinction. In short, this debut issue forces us as readers—regardless of whether or not we identify as Latinx—to reconsider our assumptions of what we consider the Latinx identity to be. The tens of thousands of beautiful words in these pages ask difficult questions, offer few answers, but urgently request our attention.
