In this book, which he was completing at the time of his death, Muñoz examines the work of playwrights Ricardo Bracho and Nilo Cruz, artists Nao Bustamante, Isaac Julien, and Tania Bruguera, and singer José Feliciano, among others, arguing for a sense of brownness that is not fixed within the racial and national contours of Latinidad. This sense of brown is not about the individualized brown subject; rather, it demonstrates that for brown peoples, being exists within what Muñoz calls the brown commons--a lifeworld, queer ecology, and form of collectivity. In analyzing minoritarian affect, ethnicity as a structure of feeling, and brown feelings as they emerge in, through, and beside art and performance, Muñoz illustrates how the sense of brown serves as the basis for other ways of knowing and being in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJosé Esteban Muñoz (1967-2013) was Professor of Performance Studies at New York University and author of \u003ci\u003eCruising Utopia: The Then and There of Queer Futurity\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDisidentifications: Queers of Color and the Performance of Politics\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Joshua Chambers-Letson is Professor of Performance Studies at Northwestern University. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Tavia Nyong'o is Professor of American Studies, African American Studies, and Theater and Performance Studies at Yale University.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.47 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 02, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666737389670,"sku":"9781478011033","price":35.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/bjRuYmltY0ZYT0JqRVNsRURjT25Ndz09.webp?v=1779979828","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-sense-of-brown-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
