Two neighboring families in El Paso, Texas, have plunged into a harrowing week. Rose Marie DuPre has abandoned her family. Across the street, Jerry Gonzalez and his family struggle with the sudden arrival of a difficult, long-lost sister. Even Lourdes, the Mexican maid who works in both houses, finds herself entangled in secrets, lies, and border politics that blur every boundary between them. All That Rises asks what it means to belong--to a family and to the world beyond.

This collection of creative offerings by forty-three queer and trans Black writers of Latin American descent helps illustrate Blackness as a geopolitical experience that is always changing.

Yaguareté White is a lyrical exploration of Paraguayan whiteness, or white Latinidad, and what it means to see through a colored whiteness, with all of its tangled contradictions. Diego Báez's poems reconcile the incomplete, contradictory, and inconsistent experiences that reside between languages, nations, and generations.
