Chicano poetry is a subgenre of Chicano literature that stems from the cultural consciousness developed in the Chicano Movement.[1] Chicano poetry has its roots in the reclamation of Chicana/o as an identity of empowerment rather than denigration.[2][3] As a literary field, Chicano poetry emerged in the 1960s and formed its own independent literary current and voice.[1][4]
