Preface: Augmented Fotonovelas are
grounded in my “cultural intuition:
1. one’s personal experience,
2. the existing literature
3. one’s professional experience
4. and the analytical research process itself(Delgado Bernal, 1998, p.563).

11. Concluding Remarks
Augmented Fotonovelas
Disseminate asset-based counter-narratives celebrating Latina/o communities without sanitizing their realities.
center the role of race along with other forms of subordination and engage communities as co-collaborators in the research and artistic processes (Delgado Bernal & Solórzano, 2001).
visual counter-stories contesting dominant narratives about marginalized populations in ways accessible and meaningful in the everyday lives of Communities of Color (Solórzano & Yosso, 2002).
