Ever since his beloved father’s unexpected death and his best friend’s suicide, high school athletic phenom Chente Jimenez has been shutting out his family and friends in an attempt to protect his shattered soul. When Chente decides to take a midnight jog on a sleepless, snowy night, he never imagines that his surprising encounter with his first-year basketball coach at a city park will unleash a series of events that will test his fortitude, challenge his courage, and awaken feelings he has guarded and suppressed all his life. While immersed in the final semester of his senior year, Chente soon becomes overwhelmed by the pressures of being an all-American boy, choosing the right college, and hiding his emerging homoerotic feelings from family and friends. Now as the Avalon High School basketball team races toward their first state championship, their starting-point guard must battle locker room homophobia and cyberbullying while attempting to boldly embrace his truth and become, Valiente. In this coming-of-age tale, a high school athlete must face a mirror of truth that shows him a reflection he must come to terms with before he can move forward in life.

Book Description
Sometimes, heroes must sacrifice the present for the future. After transitioning into his ancestral spiritual life, Chente Jimenez is at a crossroad yet again. His newfound supernatural gifts have distanced him from his boyfriend, Aaron Doss, and, worse yet, unleashed the diabolical revenge of a demonic spirit from hell on the Jimenez family, leaving one close to death. To further complicate matters, Chente’s best friend, Jimmy Davis, is found barely alive at a gay conversion camp in Kentucky, one run by the Ku Klux Klan. His condition is the direct result of the harsh brutality he endured at the hands of cult leader, the Reverend. Jimmy’s return to Avalon disrupts the small town’s social order as his unhinged and erratic behavior drives a deeper wedge between Chente and Aaron. As Chente searches his heart for answers, he faces lingering doubts about his destiny, angry ghosts seeking retribution, and a hooded figure that threatens the happiness of his family and friends. His poignant journey will force him to surrender to the past, embrace the present and safeguard the future.

Book Description
A play about defiance of systemic racism. Juan de Mérida, an Afro-Spanish soldier aspires to social advancement in the Netherlands during the Eighty Years' War (1566-1648). His main enemies are not Dutch rebels but his white countrymen, whom he defeats at every attempt to humiliate him. In this play one encounters military culture, upward mobility, mistaken identities, defying destiny, royal pageantry, swordfights, cross-dressing, revenge, homosexual anxiety, and inter-racial marriage. Andrés de Claramonte’s El valiente negro en Flandes (c.1625) is an Afrodiasporic play that enjoyed great success and multiple stagings in Spain and in Latin America. Its 1938 negrista performance in Havana, Cuba, and Frantz Fanon’s Black Skin, White Masks, attest to the power of this play to illuminate contemporary racial dynamics. This is the first annotated, critical edition and English translation of El valiente negro en Flandes with a comprehensive introduction, three critical essays, the critical apparatus comparing the eleven extant versions of the play, and an appendix with alternative scenes and related historical documents. A tool for scholars of early modern European literature and a pedagogical aid to discuss the early discourses on Blackness in Spain and its trans-Atlantic empire.
