Abstract: This paper explores the question of “LatinX” through debates in affective and critical neuroscience regarding the “neurologization of self” that many theorists claim we are experiencing today. This exploration takes Oliver Sacks’ case study “The Autist’s Artist” as its centerpiece and traces how the figure of “José” is narrativized as an autistic subject. The paper asks how we might understand “José” as a “LatinX” subject.
