“Latino” is the most open-ended and loosely defined of the major race categories in the United States.Our Migrant Souls: A Meditation on Race and the Meanings and Myths of “Latino”assembles the Pulitzer Prize winner Hctor Tobar’s personal experiences as the son of Guatemalan immigrants and the stories told to him by his Latinx students to offer a spirited rebuke to racist ideas about Latino people.Our Migrant Soulsdecodes the meaning of “Latino” as a racial and ethnic identity in the modern United States, and seeks to give voice to the angst and anger of young Latino people who have seenlatinidadtransformed into hateful tropes about “illegals” and have faced insults, harassment, and division based on white insecurities and economic exploitation.

Investigating topics that include the US-Mexico border “wall,” Frida Kahlo, urban segregation, gangs, queer Latino utopias, and the emergence of the cartel genre in TV and film, Tobar journeys across the country to expose something truer about the meaning of “Latino” in the twenty-first century.
