Contributors to this special issue question translation and its politics of “invisibilizing” certain bodies and geographies, shedding light on queer and cuir histories that have confronted the imperial gaze or remained untranslatable. Bringing together bodies and forms of knowledge that have been excluded from queer studies as it has been consolidated in universities in the US and Europe, the authors ask if particular regional or national (or diasporic) traditions have privileged certain queer/cuir texts in Latin America and the Caribbean.
