A project of the Latinx Sound Culture Studies research working group centering social and spatial mobility, transgressive and transformative modes of sounding and listening, and decolonizing listening methodologies of largely working class, migrant, and racialized Latinx communities. We host conversations between Latina/o/x Studies scholars whose work attends to sounding and listening practices across areas of study, including, but not limited to, radio studies, linguistics, feminist studies, border soundscapes, jotería/queer performance studies, and music imaginaries.

This group is established in 2022 with the support of the Crossing Latinidades Humanities Research Initiative at University of Illinois Chicago through a grant from the Andrew Mellon Foundation.
