Jones insists in viewing habla de negros as a form of speech that conveys multiple meanings of Blackness. [...]it cannot be separated from other elements of early modern Black performance: dance, sound, costume, food, and ultimately, the self-fashioning of the Black body. According to Cervantes, Lope de Rueda was a celebrated impersonator of negra characters.
