'And Ar'n't I a Man?': Toward a Chicano/Latino Men's Studies

Abstract

The "new men's studies scholarship" is critiqued & directions are outlined for the development of a new Chicano/Latino dimension in men's studies, arguing that these ethnic groups have been largely ignored in theory & research. A particularly egregious omission has been recognition of gay Chicano/Latino males & their position in these traditionally "macho" societies. Lessons to be gleaned from feminist studies of oppression among Chicanas/Latinas are reviewed. 30 References. K. Hyatt Stewart
