She is Cuba: A Genealogy of the Mulata Body
Blanco Borelli, Melissa (Lecturer in Dance Studies, Lecturer in Dance Studies, University of Surrey)
This book traces the history of the Cuban mulata and her association with hips, sensuality and popular dance. It examines how the mulata choreographs her identity through her hips. Combining literary and personal narratives with historical and theoretical accounts of Cuban popular dance history, religiosity and culture, this work investigates the power of embodied exchanges.
