"Popping It" as Family in Mosquitoes & Me: Affective Accumulation and Anzaldúan Aesthetic Consciousness in "Ciencia Zurda"
Bruna, Katherine Richardson; Farley, Jennifer; Bartholomay, Lyric
Cultural Studies of Science Education, v18 n2 p393-422 Jun 2023
This article uses key concepts of Anzaldúan philosophy to describe the Mosquitoes & Me summer camp as "ciencia zurda" or "left-handed science." It details a day-in-the-life portrait of Elena, a first-generation Latina middle schooler, as she experiences the opportunities that Mosquitoes & Me provided for self-other bridge crossing and radically relational, "Nepantlan" potential. Our discussion of Elena's experiences in terms of "Nepantlan" principles of diversity, Affect, and spirit, as well as Affective accumulation and aesthetic consciousness, infuse an emotional and spiritual dimension to inquiry science- and responsive science-complementarity and revisit a call for soul-centered, socially-transformative science.
