When Language Broke Open will be a trailblazing anthology that multiple communities, generations, and scholar-activists will greatly benefit from. Alan Pelaez Lopez's methodological insight in centering the lived, embodied experiences of Black Latinx queer and trans folks conjures a public and intimate space to gather multiple forms of knowledge production into one collection. --Paul Joseph Lopez Oro, Smith College This anthology is a beautiful and powerful collection that brings readers into the textures, scents, and feels of Black queer and trans Latinx Americas across multiple geographies. The writers herein capture the tension, disappointment, and displacement of queer diasporas, while at the same time guiding us into how we hold spaces of care and reconciliation. The work's beauty is that it is relatable, intersectional, and an homage to ancestral lineages and divine knowledges. --Omaris Z. Zamora, Rutgers University
