Abstract
En este artículo, se analiza el caso de Harold Nichols, el único
afrocostarricense que, en la década de 1930, colaboró activamente con el
Partido Comunista de Costa Rica. La experiencia de este militante permite
explorar las complejas relaciones entre esa organización política y la importante
comunidad negra y extranjera asentada en el Caribe, cuya presencia
exacerbó la xenofobia y el racismo en el decenio indicado.
