Revelation in Aztlanscriptures, utopias, and the Chicano movement /[electronic resource] :by Jacqueline M. Hidalgo. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan US :2016. - xi, 314 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - The bible and cultural studies. - The bible and cultural studies..

Introduction: Scriptures, Place, and No Place in the Chicano Movement -- Chapter One: "We Are Aztlan": Writing Scriptures, Writing Utopia in El Plan Espiritual de Aztlan -- Chapter Two: "The Holy City Which Has Been Written in This Book": The Utopian Scripturalization of Revelation -- Chapter Three: "The Spirit Will Speak for My People": El Plan de Santa Barbara and the Chicanx Movement as a Project of Scripturalization -- Chapter Four: "Power and Dominance, Loyalty and Conformity": Family, Gender, Sexuality, and Utopian Scripturalization -- Chapter Five: "Faith and Social Justice Are So Connected in My Book": Scriptures, Scrolls, and Scribes as Technologies of Diaspora -- Coda: Scriptural Revelations and Reconquest.

Bridging the fields of Religion and Latina/o Studies, this book fills a gap by examining the "spiritual" rhetoric and practices of the Chicano movement. Bringing new theoretical life to biblical studies and Chicana/o writings from the 1960s, such as El Plan Espiritual de Aztlan and El Plan de Santa Barbara, Jacqueline M. Hidalgo boldly makes the case that peoples, for whom historical memories of displacement loom large, engage scriptures in order to make and contest homes. Movement literature drew upon and defied the scriptural legacies of Revelation, a Christian scriptural text that also carries a displaced homing dream. Through the slipperiness of utopian imaginations, these texts become places of belonging for those whose belonging has otherwise been questioned. Hidalgo's elegant comparative study articulates as never before how Aztlan and the new Jerusalem's imaginative power rest in their ambiguities, their ambivalence, and the significance that people ascribe to them.
