Description: The Sense of Brown is Jos Esteban Mu oz's treatise on brownness and being as well as his most direct address to queer Latinx studies. In this book which he was completing at the time of his death Mu oz examines the work of playwrights Ricardo Bracho and Nilo Cruz artists Nao Bustamante Isaac Julien and Tania Bruguera and singer Jos Feliciano among others arguing for a sense of brownness that is not fixed within the racial and national contours of Latinidad. This sense of brown is not about the individualized brown subject; rather it demonstrates that for brown peoples being exists within what Mu oz calls the brown commons a lifeworld queer ecology and form of collectivity. In analyzing minoritarian affect ethnicity as a structure of feeling and brown feelings as they emerge in through and beside art and performance Mu oz illustrates how the sense of brown serves as the basis for other ways of knowing and being in the world.
