Migration, Ethnicity, and Interactions between the United States and Hispanic Caribbean Popular Culture

Ángel G. Quintero Rivera

Social Science Research Center, University of Puerto Rico

Some of the most important musical expressions of contemporary popular culture—jazz, salsa, and hip-hop, among others—developed from continuous and intense interaction between Hispanic Caribbean and U.S. Afro-American sociocultural processes, strengthened greatly by phenomena linked to urban migration. The history of these interactions calls into question the traditional bipolar interpretation of cultural relations between Latin America and the United States and demands a transnational revaluation of heterogeneity.

Key Words: Migration • music • popular culture • Latino-black cultural interaction • Puerto • Ricans • cultural counterhegemony
