UMD Latino Employee Association

At the University of Maryland, Professor Juan Carlos Quintero-Herencia, a writer and scholar of Caribbean and Latin American literature who is originally from Puerto Rico, teaches Bad Bunny as part of the new course “Contemporary Puerto Rican Musicality.” In it, students examine how music—and its performance, protest and poetry—both reflect and reshape the Puerto Rican experience, with a syllabus that stretches from 19th century writers like Salvador Brau to legendary lyricists like Tite Curet Alonso, and across genres like bomba, plena, salsa and reggaetón.
