This book examines the intersection of queer Latino identity and artistic expression through the relationship between artist Keith Haring and Juanito Xtravaganza, a prominent figure in New York's Latino gay ballroom scene. Cruz-Malave uses testimonio as a framework to explore how queer Latino experiences are documented and represented in biographical narrative.
