Chicano/a Philosophy: Rupturing Gringo Anti-Chicano/a Paradigms and Philosophies

Periodical TitleAPA Newsletter on Hispanic/Latino Issues in Philosophy
Author(s)Andrew C. Soto
AbstractThe article argues for Chicano/a philosophy grounded in Chicano/a paradigms, not Western ones that construct Chicanos/as as threats. Chicano/a philosophy provides a framework to analyze Chicano/a intersubjectivity and colonialism. It traces Chicanismo’s development by leaders who rejected assimilation. The article advocates building on this and Critical Race Theory to create Chicano/a knowledge systems where Chicano/a existence is possible. It concludes, 21st century Chicano/a philosophy must reject Western recognition and construct new paradigms in Chicano/a logic and epistemologies.
