SALALM and NACLA invite you to celebrate the launch of the Summer 2025 issue of the NACLA Report! Guest editors Kaysha Corinealdi, Jorge E. Cuéllar, and Paul Joseph López Oro will discuss the preparation of this issue and the myriad forms by which Central Americans produce the region and its knowledge systems, centering ongoing contestations over memory, history, and self-description in the pursuit of belonging and the articulation of collective futures. Together the guest editors ask: Who decides what counts as knowledge in and of Central America? How has knowledge been created, challenged, and imagined on the Central American isthmus and across its vast diasporas? The authors, practitioners, poets, and creators represented in the issue responded generously to these provocations, foregrounding Black, Indigenous, queer, and diasporic subjectivities in order to think about and through Central American saberes and practices of knowledge-keeping.
