Abstract

Chapter 5 returns to the diaspora in Miami to examine the way value is attributed to the nostalgic and affective capacities of material items originating in Cuba. The chapter ethnographically explores several antiques shops, and traces some of these historic items to address the way that different groups of Cubans mobilize “authentic” material goods in political ways, ultimately seeking to create and perform a heightened sense of a curated and often ideologically charged notion of Cuban identity. The chapter considers how hegemonic gazes onto Cuba and its cultural history are reproduced and marshalled according to sociopolitical projects, which map onto identity anxieties rooted in the ambiguity and upheaval of diasporic life in exile.

Keywords: diaspora, nostalgic, antiques, cultural history, material goods, identity, exile, Cuba, authentic
