This process has been accompanied by an increase in migrations of Latin American and Caribbean Afro-descendants as well as of Africans, all in search of better opportunities and conditions through which to escape poverty, marginalization and social discrimination. In this new situation, it is crucial to remember and reflect on the adversities and exclusion faced by Africans and Afro-descendants during the Colonial and Republican periods as well as the invisibility and inequality to which they were subject from the time of the formation of nation states through to the present. In light of this, we seek in this dossier to present research on topics associated with ancestry, history and historiography, children's literature, art and state recognition, related to the Africans and Afro-descendants who have been, and continue to be, part of Latin American and Caribbean societies. In line with this, the spaces where the studies for the articles presented in this dossier took place go beyond the regional and include Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Spain and Chile. El reconocimiento y visibilización de los pueblos afrodescendientes en el siglo XXI marca un cambio significativo en la narrativa histórica y social. Este proceso ha sido acompañado por un aumento en las migraciones de afrodescendientes latinoamericanos y caribeños, así como de africanos, todos en busca de mejores oportunidades de vida y de condiciones que le permitan salir de la pobreza, de la marginalidad y la discriminación social. El nuevo panorama se presenta como crucial para recordar y reflexionar sobre las adversidades y la exclusión que enfrentaron los africanos y afrodescendientes durante los períodos colonial y republicano, así como la invisibilidad y la desigualdad a las que fueron sometidos desde la formación de los Estados nacionales hasta el presente. Atendiendo a todo lo expuesto, en este dossier nos proponemos presentar algunas investigaciones sobre temáticas vinculadas a la ancestralidad, la historia y la historiografía, la literatura infantil, el arte y el reconocimiento estatal relacionadas a los africanos y afrodescendientes que han formado parte, y lo continúan haciendo, de las sociedades de América Latina y el Caribe. En función de lo expresado, los espacios en los que se desarrollaron los estudios de los artículos que se presentan en este dossier van más allá de lo regional, situándose en Brasil, Colombia, Ecuador, España y Chile.

The recognition and visibilization of Afro-descendant peoples in the 21st century mark a significant change in the historical and social narrative. This process has been accompanied by an increase in migrations of Latin American and Caribbean Afro-descendants as well as of Africans, all in search of better opportunities and conditions through which to escape poverty, marginalization and social discrimination. In this new situation, it is crucial to remember and reflect on the adversities and exclusion faced by Africans and Afro-descendants during the Colonial and Republican periods as well as the invisibility and inequality to which they were subject from the time of the formation of nation states through to the present.
