dc.description.abstract
Puerto Rican writer María Mas Pozo was one of the most frequent collaborators of the Hispanic press in New York City during late 1920s to the 1930s. Among her many works, her letters in La Prensa’s section “De nuestros lectores” (From our readers) offer an exceptional reflection on topics such as modernity and its institutions, U.S. interventionism and imperialist interests in Latin America and the Caribbean, Puerto Rican nationalism, and racial/ethnic prejudice toward Puerto Ricans in New York. In this article, I elaborate these topics based on the opinions Mas Pozo develops in some of her letters, and I also reflect on the meanings of reading among women within the framework of a mass culture. [Keywords: María Mas Pozo, La Prensa, Puerto Rican, New York City, nationalism, imperialism, modernity]
