Synopsis

A part of the Akrilica Series at Noemi Press. Akrilica, a co-publishing venture between Noemi Press and Letras Latinas -- the literary initiative at the Institute for Latino Studies at the University of Notre Dame -- showcases innovative Latino writing. The series name recalls the groundbreaking, bilingual book from the eighties by distinguished Chicano writer, and United States Poet Laureate Emeritus, Juan Felipe Herrera. You Da One explores Internet culture, how it creates and how it dismantles the self as a body. In this second edition, Tamayo expands their original collection in a conversation about the pervasive and personal nature of rape culture.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Jennif(f)er Tamayo (they/them) is a poet, performer and essayist whose works reimagine the narratives about and politics of undocumented figures in the contemporary U.S. In their books, performances, and digital media, the "illegal" immigrant is recast as a punk figure that queers the norms of personhood and citizenship. They are the author of the hybrid poetry collections [Red Missed Aches, Read Mistakes] selected by Cathy Park Hong for the Gatewood Prize and YOU DA ONE (Noemi Books). Their latest chapbook, to kill the future in the present (Green Lantern Press) blends lyric forms and critical theory to explore how conditions of displacement and incarceration shared by Black, Indigenous and undocumented communites are sites for collective struggle. JT's writing is widely published and has been anthologized in Best American Experimental Poetry, New Latin@ Writing, and HarperCollins. JT has received fellowships from the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts, Hemispheric Institute's EmergeNYC, CantoMundo, and the University of California Berkeley's Arts Research Center. They have staged performances at The Brooklyn Museum, BAMPFA, Midtown Arts & Theatre Center Houston, and La Mama Theatre.

They are a formerly undocumented, univited visitor born on Muisca territory (Bogota, Colombia) currently living on Sapponi territory.
