More about the book
Quebradita, a vibrant Mexican American dance style, surged in popularity during the 1990s in Los Angeles and the southwestern U.S. Characterized by energetic banda music and distinctive dance moves, it reflects a blend of Mexican, Anglo, and African American influences. The dance not only captivated youth but also served as a cultural response to anti-immigrant sentiments and English-only laws in California. Hutchinson explores its sociopolitical significance and the way it captured the unique experiences of Mexican American youth during its brief but impactful rise.
