This past summer he had the opportunity to spend six weeks studying abroad in Brazil through a study abroad program offered by Tulane University. During this time period, he lived in the country’s and South America’s biggest city, São Paulo. He received a Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowship (FLAS) from Tulane University, which helped pay for the program and even an airline ticket to and from Brazil. Tulane University was extraordinarily generous in allowing UNM students to apply to the fellowship. Before applying for the FLAS, Wally spent the previous two semesters at UNM studying and perfecting Portuguese with two professors in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese - Andressa Maia and Marina Todeschini - who both helped him develop his skills and encouraged him to improve his language fluency.Wally Gallart is in the last year of his undergraduate program at The University of New Mexico with a major in Latin American Studies and a minor in Communication & Journalism.

Dr. Karla Inestroza is a physician from Honduras who works for the second largest public hospital in the country and also directs a non-profit organization that provides medical attention in rural and underserved communities in Honduras by facilitating cooperation between health care professionals, international medical teams and local communities in order to create greater impact interventions based on the needs of each individual region. 1507183200000Cultural dimensions of mental healthcare and differences in practices in Honduras and the U.S.A./events/2019/08/2017-08-22-cultural-dimensions-of-mental-healthcare-and-differences-in-practices-in-honduras-and-the-u.s.a.laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/08/2017-08-22-cultural-dimensions-of-mental-healthcare-and-differences-in-practices-in-honduras-and-the-u.s.a.mlinares1565821084107mlinares1565902289929layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno09trueSeptember/events/2019/09laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/09kphilipp1547501160960kphilipp1547501160960contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9SeptemberSeptember/events/2019/09/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/09/indexkphilipp1547501161021kphilipp1547501161021layout2 Columnshow-in-navno2019-09-05-rebecca-tarlautrue1745274333730klewis9Occupying Schools, Occupying Land: How the Landless Workers Movement Transformed Brazilian EducationIn Occupying Schools, Occupying Land, Rebecca Tarlau explores how MST activists have pressured municipalities, states, and the federal government to implement their educational program in public schools and universities, affecting hundreds of thousands of students. Contrary to the belief that movements cannot engage the state without demobilizing, Tarlau shows how educational institutions can help movements recruit new activists, diversify their membership, increase technical knowledge, and garner political power. Drawing on twenty months of ethnographic field work, Tarlau documents how the MST operates in different regions working at times with or through the state, at other times outside it and despite it. She argues that activists are most effective using contentious co-governance, combining disruption and public protest with institutional pressure to defend and further their goals. -- Author Name --1507183200000Occupying Schools, Occupying Land: How the Landless Workers Movement Transformed Brazilian Education/events/2019/09/2019-09-05-rebecca-tarlaulaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/09/2019-09-05-rebecca-tarlaumlinares1565905449490mlinares1565905956542layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno2019-09-09-book-group-jazz-owls1true1745274333730klewis9Vamos a Leer Book Group: Jazz Owls: A Novel of the Zoot Suit RiotsJoin the UNM Latin American & Iberian Institute for our casual Vamos a Leer book group, a space dedicated to teachers discussing authentic and engaging Latinx literature for elementary, middle and high school classrooms.

Spanish-speaking children acquire gender agreement before the age of five (Mariscal 2009) and adult speakers do not generally show any difficulties with agreement. However, what happens in bilingual situations when a speaker of Spanish also speaks another language that lacks a grammatical gender distinction? This talk will report a series of production and acceptability tasks designed to explore the behavior of Spanish grammatical gender when Spanish is spoken alongside a language that lacks grammatical gender (English, Purepecha, Basque, Papiamento).

The installation utilizes multimodality, testimonio, art, and storytelling to reconstruct the memory and experience of her journey to the United States in the late 1970’s when she escaped the civil war in El Salvador with her mother and two sisters. The nature of the art project is so that through the model of the testimonio others are able to also interact, engage with the art pieces at a technological intimacy. This means that participants will be able to read about the emotional, political, and traumatic history of El Salvador through QR codes that will be on the car trunk. As well, social media will be utilized to have the participants experience surpass the installation state and reach others. -- Author Name --1507183200000Car Trunk: A Multimodal Migration/events/2019/10/car-trunk-a-multimodal-migrationlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/10/car-trunk-a-multimodal-migrationmlinares1571850726228mlinares1572455746662layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno11trueNovember/events/2019/11laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/11kphilipp1547501161202kphilipp1547501161202contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9NovemberNovember/events/2019/11/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2019/11/indexkphilipp1547501161283kphilipp1547501161283layout2 Columnshow-in-navnohumanities,-digital-humanities,-and-latinx-studies-exploring-the-interstices-in-academic-librariestrue1745274333730klewis9Humanities, Digital Humanities, and Latinx Studies: Exploring the Interstices in Academic LibrariesCentering her own navigation through a humanities doctorate, archival research, and a postdoc in academic libraries, Dr. Montañez will forefront the importance of humanities in emerging digital and scholarship trends.

This attribute differentiated 'Europeans' from people of mixed race claiming European status based on their skin complexion. Given the effective impulses permeating ideas about reason in New Spain, this paper considers reason in light of musico-phenomenological strategies that racialized subjects used to re-write their bodies.

Schrader’s paper will discuss the transformations in U.S. policing attendant to World War II. First, the paper highlights an investigation of the war’s dramatic shift for civilian police employment, as thousands of cops entered the military. Then, it explores the efforts to solve post-WWII personnel deficits within police departments by turning veterans into cops. The relatively smooth transfer of police into military roles and soldiers into police roles suggests a practical and ideological continuum and connection between police and military developed in this period. Overall, as will be argued, the war and the overseas occupations immediately after the war reconfigured US empire and increased the centrality of policing to it.-- Author Name --1507183200000History Colloquium: The Police-Military Continuum: How World War II Transformed US Police/events/2020/02/history-colloquium-the-police-military-continuum-how-world-ii-transformed-us-policelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2020/02/history-colloquium-the-police-military-continuum-how-world-ii-transformed-us-policevillegasa1580856844737mlinares1581610126366layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnolanguage-concordance,-heritage-language-health-professionals,-and-latino-healthtrue1745274333730klewis9Language Concordance, Heritage Language Health Professionals, and Latino HealthHealth communication researchers agree that language concordant (LC) health care encounters significantly impact health care quality, health outcomes and health care relationship for language minority populations in the United States. While the health protective benefits of LC care have been well documented, relatively few studies have sought to describe the discourse characteristics of LC encounters. These studies point to significant differences between LC encounters with an L2 Spanish-speaking provider and with an HL Spanish-speaking provider. In this presentation, I will present the results of a study that compares LC interactions between L2 and HL providers, point out the discourse features of these interactions and demonstrate the impact of these interactions on health and behavioral outcomes of Spanish-speaking patients. Finally, I will consider the implications of this research for the teaching and testing of Spanish heritage language health professionals in the United States.-- Author Name --1507183200000Language Concordance, Heritage Language Health Professionals, and Latino Health/events/2020/02/language-concordance,-heritage-language-health-professionals,-and-latino-healthlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2020/02/language-concordance,-heritage-language-health-professionals,-and-latino-healthmlinares1581376817946mlinares1581376817946layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnothe-resurrection-of-victor-jaratrue1745274333730klewis9The Resurrection of Victor JaraThis film documents the extraordinary life and legacy of iconic Chilean singer-songwriter, Victor Jara, executed in 1973 following a right-wing military coup.

Tourism, business practices, food, fashion, festivals, concerts and consumption on social media have far-reaching consequences on global communities due to America's cultural and economic dominance in the world. We will address the delicate balance between the need for commercial viability, community impact, and representation when choosing artists and promoting events. The panelists will discuss the differences between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation as a way to understand the various stakes involved in selecting an International artist. As diaspora becomes a more common lived experience for people around the world, the importance of using terminology that reflects the nuances of cultural fluidity, becomes tantamount when categorizing music and artists.-- Author Name --1507183200000Cultural Appropriation and Assimilation in the New Global Context/events/2020/02/cultural-appropriation-and-assimilation-in-the-new-global-contextlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2020/02/cultural-appropriation-and-assimilation-in-the-new-global-contextvillegasa1582058966863villegasa1582146660109layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno03true1584194868591mlinaresMarch/events/2020/03laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2020/03mlinares1576176593505mlinares1576176593505contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9MarchMarch/events/2020/03/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2020/03/indexmlinares1576176593577mlinares1576176593577layout2 Columnshow-in-navnocar-trunk-a-multimodal-migrationtrue1745274333730klewis9Car Trunk: A Multimodal Migration"Car Trunk: a Multimodal Migration" is an exhibition of the reconstruction of the car trunk that Melisa’s mother, as a young child, migrated to the United States inside of. The installation utilizes multimodality, testimonio, art, and storytelling to reconstruct the memory and experience of her journey to the United States in the late 1970’s when she escaped the civil war in El Salvador with her mother and two sisters. The nature of the art project is so that through the model of the testimonio others are able to also interact, engage with the art pieces at a technological intimacy. This means that participants will be able to read about the emotional, political, and traumatic history of El Salvador through QR codes that will be on the car trunk. As well, social media will be utilized to have the participants experience surpass the installation state and reach others.-- Author Name --1507183200000Car Trunk: A Multimodal Migration/events/2020/03/car-trunk-a-multimodal-migrationlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2020/03/car-trunk-a-multimodal-migrationmlinares1581376330113mlinares1581376330113layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnolaii-lecture-series-fideicomiso-archivos-plutarco-elias-calles-y-fernando-torreblanca-digital-collectiontrue1745274333730klewis9LAII Lecture Series: Fideicomiso Archivos Plutarco Elias Calles y Fernando Torreblanca Digital CollectionJoin the LAII for a presentation on The University of New Mexico’s Center for Southwest Research Fideicomiso Archivos Plutarco Elias Calles y Fernando Torreblanca Digital Collection.

Every year hundreds of thousands of migrants make their way along the trail running from southern Mexico to the US border. Gustavo’s gunshot wounds from Mexican police, which have achieved abundant press attention, might just earn him a ticket out of Nicaragua. Meanwhile anthropologist Jason painstakingly collects the trail’s remains, which have their own stories to tell. Fragmented stories from Hondurans crossing through southern Mexico assemble a vivid portrait of the thousands of immigrants who disappear along the trail.

To call this crossing harsh grossly understates the difficulties these people encounter. Some lose their lives in the effort. The actual number of border-related migrant deaths cannot be known, but the U.N. estimates over 800 in 2019. Investigating those deaths and identifying the unknown are monumental tasks. Along the border region those who care for the dead, coroners, forensic pathologists, death investigators, and others, face a patchwork of laws that govern medico-legal death investigation. Because of the remoteness and harsh conditions along much of the border, a significant portion of the work identifying migrants falls to forensic anthropologists, specialists trained to analyze skeletal remains. This event is a moderated discussion by forensic anthropologists working on border deaths and border issues in Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. -- Author Name --1507183200000Identifying the dead along our southern border: Immigration, Regulation, Forensic Anthropology, and Human Rights/events/2021/02/identifying-the-dead-along-our-southern-border-immigration,-regulation,-forensic-anthropology,-and-human-rightslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/02/identifying-the-dead-along-our-southern-border-immigration,-regulation,-forensic-anthropology,-and-human-rightsmlinares1613415731060mlinares1613415731060layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno03trueMarch/events/2021/03laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/03jrm4121610481670260jrm4121610481670260contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9MarchMarch/events/2021/03/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/03/indexjrm4121610481670312jrm4121610481670312layout2 Columnshow-in-navnotrans-american-detritus-a-study-in-trans-femicidetrue1745274333730klewis9Trans-American Detritus: A Study in Trans-FemicideThis presentation focuses on the photography series, En la Pista (2016) by Mexican artist Teresa Margolles. -- Author Name --1507183200000Trans-American Detritus: A Study in Trans-Femicide/events/2021/03/trans-american-detritus-a-study-in-trans-femicidelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/03/trans-american-detritus-a-study-in-trans-femicidejrm4121611254181661jrm4121611254181661layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoidentity-and-representationtrue1745274333730klewis9K-12 Educator Workshop: Identity and Representation Through the Lens of Mexican ModernismJoin the Albuquerque Museum and The University of New Mexico Latin American & Iberian Institute for free professional development workshops focused on the exhibit Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, and Mexican Modernism, which opens on February 6 at the ABQ Museum.

In this talk, Benjamin T. Smith draws on unprecedented archival research, leaked DEA, Mexican law enforcement, and cartel documents, and dozens of interviews, to tell the real story of how and why this once-peaceful industry turned violent, interrogate the U.S.-backed policies that inflamed the carnage, and explore corruption on both sides of the border. Benjamin T. Smith is Professor of Latin American History at Warwick University in the United Kingdom. He has been writing about the history of Mexico for twenty years. He now specializes on twentieth-century politics, the narcotics trade and crime, but has also researched and written about indigenous politics, Catholicism, conservatism, newspapers, journalism, and censorship. He occasionally appears on TV or radio to talk about these subjects. -- Author Name --1507183200000The Dope: The Real History of the Mexican Drug Trade/events/2021/09/the-dope-the-real-history-of-the-mexican-drug-tradelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/09/the-dope-the-real-history-of-the-mexican-drug-trademnowlin1632859706703mlinares1633538632216layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno10trueOctober/events/2021/10laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10jrm4121610481670880jrm4121610481670880contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9OctoberOctober/events/2021/10/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10/indexjrm4121610481670928jrm4121610481670928layout2 Columnshow-in-navnooaxacan-mezcal-in-the-global-craft-economytrue1745274333730klewis9Oaxacan Mezcal in the Global Craft EconomyThis presentation explores Oaxacan mezcal as a newcomer to the global market. Not only is mezcal Oaxaca’s fastest-growing rural industry, it connects the region to an emergent network of producers, brokers, and consumers across the U.S.- Mexico border and beyond. Mezcal may be joining more well-known foods of Mexican origin commonplace in U.S. markets (corn, chile, chocolate), but its popularity is distinctly tied to the creation of a new class of global food consumers who prize mezcal as craft within the artisanal food movement; at the same time, its growing popularity is spurring questions about the sustainability of the industry.

Serrano argues that the Gothic has provided Latin American authors with a way to critique a number of issues, including colonization, authoritarianism, feudalism, and patriarchy. The book includes a literary history of the European Gothic to demonstrate how Latin American authors have incorporated its characteristics but also how they have broken away or inverted some elements, such as traditional plot lines, to suit their work and address a unique set of issues. The book examines both the modernistas of the nineteenth century and the avant-garde writers of the twentieth century, including Huidobro, Bombal, Rulfo, Roa Bastos, and Fuentes. Looking at the Gothic in Latin American literature and film, this book is a groundbreaking study that brings a fresh perspective to Latin American creative culture. Carmen Serrano is an Associate Professor at the University at Albany, State University of New York. As a scholar of twentieth and twenty-first Latin American, Mexican and U.S. Latinx literature and culture, she analyzes the ways in which literature and films manifest monstrous, spectral and non-normative bodies. Some of her publications that reflect these themes include: Gothic Imagination in Latin American Fiction and Film (University of New Mexico Press 2019); “Mapping the Zombie: Diego Velázquez Betancourt’s Newfangled Zombie in La noche que asolaron Tokio.” (Romance Notes 2018); “Duplicitous Vampires Annihilating Tradition in Froylán Turcios’s El vampiro.” (Routledge 2018); “Gallo-Gallina: Gender Performance and the Androgynous Imagination in Elena Poniatowska’s Hasta no verte Jesús mío.” (Routledge 2017); and “Revamping Dracula on the Mexican Silver Screen in Fernando Méndez’s El vampiro.” (University Press of Mississippi 2016). -- Author Name --1507183200000Gothic Imagination in Latin American Fiction and Film/events/2021/10/gothic-imagination-in-latin-american-fiction-and-filmlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10/gothic-imagination-in-latin-american-fiction-and-filmmnowlin1632860798132mlinares1633625550876layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno---inserperforming-the-songs-of-black-experience-afro-descendant-poetics-and-transcultural-dialogues-in-the-theatrical-creation-based-on-the-vissungot-headline-here---true1745274333730klewis9Performing the Songs of Black Experience: Afro-descendant poetics and transcultural dialogues in the theatrical creation based on the VissungortThis event proposes to present the possibilities and potentialities of transcultural and creative dialogues between African-Diasporic songs of tradition and performing arts. Particular attention will be given to the work developed by Brazilian artist and researcher Luciano Mendes de Jesus within his project Platform Garimpar em Minas Negras Cantos de Diamante, which investigates sonic-musicalities and performativities linked to the vissungo and the construction of Afro-descendant poetics in contemporary theater. Vissungos are songs of Central African origin deep-rooted in Brazil in the state of Minas Gerais, between the 17th and 20th centuries. Currently, Vissungo songs are found only residually, as local memories or integrated into other cultural manifestations, since the social system in which they emerged has undergone profound changes over the years. However, the first records by ethnographers and ethnomusicologists, which date from the first half of the 20th century, are references adopted and adapted in Afro-Brazilian arts to the present day, especially in urban popular music.-- Author Name --1507183200000Performing the Songs of Black Experience: Afro-descendant poetics and transcultural dialogues in the theatrical creation based on the Vissungot/events/2021/10/---inserperforming-the-songs-of-black-experience-afro-descendant-poetics-and-transcultural-dialogues-in-the-theatrical-creation-based-on-the-vissungot-headline-here---laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10/---inserperforming-the-songs-of-black-experience-afro-descendant-poetics-and-transcultural-dialogues-in-the-theatrical-creation-based-on-the-vissungot-headline-here---mnowlin1632861607831mlinares1633538825008layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoaméricas-award-2021-celebration-of-childrens-and-young-adult-latin-american-and-latinx-literaturetrue1745274333730klewis9Américas Award 2021: Celebration of Children's and Young Adult Latin American and Latinx LiteratureJoin CLASP and the Hispanic Reading Room at the Library of Congress in a virtual celebration of children’s and YA Latin American and Latinx literature.

Through a multifaceted exploration of the periodical press, contributors to this volume offer new insights into the workings of Brazilian power, culture, and public life. Collectively arguing that newspapers are contested projects rather than stable recordings of daily life, individual chapters demonstrate how the periodical press played a prominent role in creating and contesting hierarchies of race, gender, class, and culture. Contributors challenge traditional views of newspapers and magazines as mechanisms of state- and nation-building. Rather, the scholars in this volume view them as integral to current debates over the nature of Brazil. Including perspectives from Brazil’s leading scholars of the periodical press, this volume will be the starting point for future scholarship on print culture for years to come.-- Author Name --1507183200000Press, Power, and Culture in Imperial Brazil/events/2021/10/press,-power,-and-culture-in-imperial-brazillaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10/press,-power,-and-culture-in-imperial-brazilmlinares1634182187736mnowlin1634576521511layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoconversations-about-utopia-and-anti-utopia-in-latin-america-co-authored-writingtrue1745274333730klewis9Conversations about Utopia and Anti-Utopia in Latin America: Co-Authored WritingDuring the markedly strange time for research and writing engendered by the pandemic, I came to realize that for many years I had noticed with alarm that utopian narratives and imaginaries, in written and visual media, had almost completely disappeared, whereas dystopian and anti-utopian imaginaries had everywhere proliferated. I initiated conversations with former and current students to co-theorize this historical moment in the ways alternative futures are conjured and represented. Out of those conversations the two projects presented here developed: on the one hand, a conversation with Lara Gunderson, (PhD in Anthropology 2018) about the utopian imaginary in Nicaragua was published in an article entitled “Solentiname’s Utopian Legacies and the Contemporary Comunidades Eclesiales del Base (CEBs)” based upon my own former research and Lara’s dissertation research about the CEBs. On the other hand, a conversation with Felix Manuel Burgos (PhD in Spanish and Portuguese 2013) developed around the anti-utopian world of the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias Colombianas (FARC) and Felix Manuel’s memories of living in the FARC controlled Zona de Despeje (1999-2002).-- Author Name --1507183200000Conversations about Utopia and Anti-Utopia in Latin America: Co-Authored Writing/events/2021/10/conversations-about-utopia-and-anti-utopia-in-latin-america-co-authored-writinglaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10/conversations-about-utopia-and-anti-utopia-in-latin-america-co-authored-writingmnowlin1634668440316mnowlin1634668551804layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnothe-conquest-of-the-desert-argentinas-indigenous-peoples-and-the-battle-for-historytrue1745274333730klewis9The Conquest of the Desert: Argentina's Indigenous Peoples and the Battle for HistoryWinner of the 2021 Thomas McGann Book Prize from the Rocky Mountain Council for Latin American Studies For more than one hundred years, the Conquest of the Desert (1878–1885) has marked Argentina’s historical passage between eras, standing at the gateway to the nation’s “Golden Age” of progress, modernity, and—most contentiously—national whiteness and the “invisibilization” of Indigenous peoples. This traditional narrative has deeply influenced the ways in which many Argentines understand their nation’s history, its laws and policies, and its cultural heritage. As such, the Conquest has shaped debates about the role of Indigenous peoples within Argentina in the past and present. The Conquest of the Desert brings together scholars from across disciplines to offer an interdisciplinary examination of the Conquest and its legacies. This collection explores issues of settler colonialism, Indigenous-state relations, genocide, borderlands, and Indigenous cultures and land rights through essays that reexamine one of Argentina’s most important historical periods.-- Author Name --1507183200000The Conquest of the Desert: Argentina's Indigenous Peoples and the Battle for History/events/2021/10/the-conquest-of-the-desert-argentinas-indigenous-peoples-and-the-battle-for-historylaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/10/the-conquest-of-the-desert-argentinas-indigenous-peoples-and-the-battle-for-historymnowlin1634670267896mnowlin1634670267896layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno11true1638297083789mlinaresNovember/events/2021/11laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/11jrm4121610481670972jrm4121610481670972contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9NovemberNovember/events/2021/11/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/11/indexjrm4121610481671020jrm4121610481671020layout2 Columnshow-in-navnoarchitectural-layout-and-inka-imperial-tactics-in-northern-chile-ad-1400-1532true1745274333730klewis9Architectural Layout and Inka Imperial Tactics in Northern Chile (AD 1400-1532)From ancient Rome to the Aztec Empire, polities frequently use architectural monuments to promote state ideologies, advertise state power, and foster acceptance of inequality. This presentation discusses in-progress research investigating how architecture has been used for similar ends specifically within conquered imperial provinces, where empires must communicate authority to peoples who may be hesitant to accept imperial rule. The research focuses upon an archaeological case study from the Inka Empire (AD 1400-1532), with emphasis on architectural data collected at the Inka provincial center of Turi in Chile’s Atacama Desert since 2013. The study to date indicates that monuments should be understood as one facet of imperial tactics embedded in architecture, often articulated with an overall site plan or ‘layout’ designed to facilitate imperial rule. Beau Murphy is an archaeologist and PhD Candidate in the Department of Anthropology researching provincial political architecture in the Inka Empire. He entered the field of archaeology in 2011, and has conducted work in Peru, Chile, Romania, Belize, and the American Southwest since this time.-- Author Name --1507183200000Architectural Layout and Inka Imperial Tactics in Northern Chile (AD 1400-1532)/events/2021/11/architectural-layout-and-inka-imperial-tactics-in-northern-chile-ad-1400-1532laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/11/architectural-layout-and-inka-imperial-tactics-in-northern-chile-ad-1400-1532mnowlin1633105609771mlinares1633538876912layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnomi-cultura-curahealing-through-culture-testimonios-de-la-nueva-méxico-digital-archive-projecttrue1745274333730klewis9Mi Cultura Cura/Healing Through Culture: Testimonios de la Nueva México Digital Archive ProjectKells and Romero will discuss their Mi Cultura Cura: Testimonios de la Nueva México Digital Archive and their research approach to the examination of diverse public discourses through grassroots community engagement.

The story addressed by the film begins in 1927, when the Ford Motor Company attempted to establish rubber plantations on the Tapajós River, a primary tributary of the Amazon. This film addresses the transition from failed rubber to successful soybean cultivation for export, and its implication for land usage. This film offers insight into the history and current state of extractive international industries in the Amazon rainforest, furthering discussion of the relationship between the local and global, consumption, inequity and the environment.-- Author Name --1507183200000Beyond Fordlandia: Film Screening and Conversation with Director Marcos Colón/events/2021/11/beyond-fordlandia-film-screening-and-conversation-with-director-marcos-colónlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/11/beyond-fordlandia-film-screening-and-conversation-with-director-marcos-colónmnowlin1634669371286mnowlin1634669371286layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoforecasting-volcanic-eruptions-in-latin-americatrue1745274333730klewis9Forecasting Volcanic Eruptions in Latin AmericaTobias Fischer currently works in Bolivia on Uturunku Volcano.

The Purísima Concepción mission of Hawikku Pueblo was burned and looted, still smoldering along with other houses in the ancestral Zuni town. In its churchyard, the standing cross had been thrown down, covering the battered and naked body of the resident priest, Pedro de Ayala. What had happened here, and what could Galdo tell his superiors in Santo Domingo and Mexico City? This talk explores the 1672 destruction of the Hawikku mission as a microhistory in three acts, seeking to understand the contestation of colonialism within a moment of violence. Spanish, Zuni, and Apache histories converge in a story that sheds light on the perceptions of Indigenous people and Franciscan missionaries, as well as the meaning of early New Mexico missions as material environments and in memory. Find out what happened when Hawikku’s bell rang its last. -- Author Name --1507183200000A Ringing in the Ears: The Martyrdom, Subsequent Death, and Reinscription of Fray Pedro de Ayala /events/2021/11/a-ringing-in-the-ears-the-martyrdom,-subsequent-death,-and-reinscription-of-fray-pedro-de-ayalalaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/11/a-ringing-in-the-ears-the-martyrdom,-subsequent-death,-and-reinscription-of-fray-pedro-de-ayalamnowlin1635431985210mnowlin1635431985210layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnounderstanding-the-haitian-migration-flow-from-chile-to-the-us-southern-bordertrue1745274333730klewis9Understanding the Haitian Migration Flow from Chile to the US Southern BorderThis event seeks to contextualize the migration flow of thousands of Haitians from Chile who recently made the perilous journey to the US borderland seeking asylum.

Interregional ties between these culturally diverse groups facilitated complex and far-reaching systems of exchange and political alliances. One ethnic group in the highlands of northern Ecuador, the Cara, are renowned for their monumental centers, which are comprised of earthen mounds, known locally as “tolas.” Monumental developments are often characterized by two periods, with large, rounded burial mounds being built until around AD 1280, during which time a far-reaching eruption from the Quilotoa Volcano blanketed the region in up to fifteen centimeters of ash and signaled the gradual transition to the Little Ice Age. Sheer human resiliency persisted in the face of natural disaster and, somewhat suddenly, local people switched to constructing massive platform mounds, typically amongst earlier burial mound centers. Cochasquí, the highest elevation Cara center, exemplifies such a transition. Cochasquí quickly rose as one of the major seats of regional political power and was one of the first to fall during the regional conquest by Tawantinsuyu – the Inka Empire. Due to the state of preservation of the site, Cochasquí offers an excellent case study in understanding local and regional developments through short periods of rapid change. Today, Cochasquí is important to regional Indigenous identities and is cherished as a symbol of national cultural heritage.-- Author Name --1507183200000Cochasquí and the Monumental World of the Caras: The Rise and Fall of a Barbacoan Society/events/2021/12/cochasquí-and-the-monumental-world-of-the-caras-the-rise-and-fall-of-a-barbacoan-societylaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/12/cochasquí-and-the-monumental-world-of-the-caras-the-rise-and-fall-of-a-barbacoan-societymnowlin1637163879803mlinares1637613959090layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoindextrue1745274333730klewis9DecemberDecember/events/2021/12/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2021/12/indexjrm4121610481671102jrm4121610481671102layout2 Columnshow-in-navno2022true1669073013040mnowlin20222022/events/2022laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022mlinares1642196998471mlinares1642196998471layout3 Columnshow-in-navnoindextrue1745274333730klewis9Events ArchivesEvents Archives/events/2022/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/indexmlinares1642196998608mlinares1642196998608layout2 Columnshow-in-navno01trueJanuary/events/2022/01laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/01mlinares1642196998648mlinares1642196998648contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9JanuaryJanuary/events/2022/01/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/01/indexmlinares1642196998745mlinares1642196998745layout2 Columnshow-in-navnothe-path-to-an-international-non-profit-careertrue1745274333730klewis9The Path to an International Non-Profit CareerLearn about amazing careers from those who paved the way!

Drawing from her recent fieldwork in Costa Rica, Dr. Ana Alonso Minutti will address ways in which artists and scientists associated with the Universidad de Costa Rica, in conjunction with local activists, have developed the workbook ¡Escuchá conmigo! (2021), an invitation for kids and young adults to engage in an exercise of listening through the body to connect with nature. Having grown up in Mexico, she will address a similar project developed in her home country, Suena Mexico (2016), an illustrated book that tells a story using the yells and calls of street public services (el gas, la basura, tamales, etc.). Taking these two book projects as case examples, she will propose ways in which teachers and students can think through sound and engage in creative exercises to promote human and nonhuman connections. An active hiker, Ana will introduce the practice of soundwalking as yet another way of developing a sonic epistemology. By sharing her recent experience walking over 80 kms of El Camino de Santiago (Spain), she will propose doing soundwalks to create harmony between body, mind, and soul by listening through walking. Lastly, drawing from her time living in Albuquerque for the past eight years, Ana will address the ways in which the unique New Mexican soundscape has been a catalyst for her research, teaching, and composing. Ana Alonso Minutti is a music scholar, pedagogue, writer, and occasional composer based in Albuquerque, NM. She is passionate about listening, learning, loving, and living. Currently, she’s spending her sabbatical in Spanish-speaking lands, as she had missed thinking and speaking solely in her native language. Following Ana's presentation, participants will further explore how to incorporate sound into their classroom teaching. What does the world sound like? What does Latin America sound like? How is sound a form of resistance and sovereignty? Listen to soundscapes from around Latin America and Iberia, participate in an "ear opening" activity using South American sounds, and learn what resources are available to help you incorporate sound - including music, oral history, and podcasts - into your classroom. The resources provided are applicable across grade levels, languages, and subject areas. An educator book guide on "Hungry Listening" will also be provided and discussed.

That same day, his correspondent from Mexico City, José C. Valdés, confirmed to Lozano that his papers had had been marked as “seditious propaganda” by the Mexican government. Lozano subsequently denied these claims and pointed to Mexico’s guarantee of free press. In contrast to northward movement of Mexican people, resources, and ideas, the prohibition of Lozano’s newspapers represented a unique case on the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. This talk focuses on the formation of La Opinión in its first decade in which it utilized democratic rhetoric that emphasized the ideals of free press and electoral participation for Mexicans on both sides of the border. Lozano’s papers represented a transnational Mexican citizenship which relied on warning readers on the dangers of the Mexican government that spawned from the Mexican Revolution. La Opinión ultimately functioned as a crucial borderlands newspaper for ethnic Mexicans across the U.S. Southwest. The long Mexican Revolution thus contributed to the establishment of two seminal Mexican borderlands newspapers, and its efforts to keep the bonds of mexicanidad linked to the homeland from afar.-- Author Name --1507183200000Forming La Opinión in Los Angeles: Ignacio Lozano, Mexicanidad, and Diasporic Nationalism, 1926-1940/events/2022/02/forming-la-opinión-in-los-angeles-ignacio-lozano,-mexicanidad,-and-diasporic-nationalism,-1926-1940laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/02/forming-la-opinión-in-los-angeles-ignacio-lozano,-mexicanidad,-and-diasporic-nationalism,-1926-1940mlinares1643844815734mnowlin1644346056150layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoa-black-feminist-toolkit-mobilization-and-cohesion-in-emergent-race-based-social-movementstrue1745274333730klewis9A Black Feminist Toolkit: Mobilization and Cohesion in Emergent Race-based Social MovementsSocial movements scholars have considered the role of individual and collective emotions in mobilization and cohesion but have not engaged with racialized emotions in this literature. In this presentation, Prisca Gayles examines Black women’s increased participation in Argentina’s black and feminist social movements, as evidenced by their visibility at recent major protest events. Gayles investigates why Black women’s membership is growing faster than in previous years, and how movement participants utilize transnational black feminisms to empower new members. Drawing on twenty-two months of ethnographic fieldwork, Gayles examines how negative and positive emotional bonds function as tools of mobilization in race-based social movements. Gayles argues that Black women activists equip their constituency with a “black feminist toolkit,” giving them skills to process and confront the otherwise crippling forms of quotidian and institutional racism they suffer through. Their findings show why and how affective processes of mobilization are critical to Black women’s activism in Argentina.-- Author Name --1507183200000A Black Feminist Toolkit: Mobilization and Cohesion in Emergent Race-based Social Movements/events/2022/02/a-black-feminist-toolkit-mobilization-and-cohesion-in-emergent-race-based-social-movementslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/02/a-black-feminist-toolkit-mobilization-and-cohesion-in-emergent-race-based-social-movementsmlinares1644878925855mlinares1644878925855layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoimmigration-asylumtrue1745274333730klewis9Immigration & AsylumDr. Kimberly Gauderman joined the History Department in 1998 and served as the Departmental Undergraduate Advisor for nine years (2009-20018).

Using both written and graphic texts, these publications- often handmade and non-commercial, offer a unique avenue of escape. As publications outside the academy, zines often don't receive the attention that they deserve. In this talk, I'll show and discuss the visual poetry to be found in the Center for Southwest Research's collection of Mexican and Chilean zines.

Subsequent archaeological investigation revealed elaborate murals devoted to Maya mythology, complete with hieroglyphic texts--the first artworks combining figure and text--buried in successive architectural phases dating from ca. 400-100 B.C. In addition to the 15 meter-long Late Preclassic-period wall paintings still standing in Sub-1A, there were over 7,000 mural fragments from four separate painted chambers within the pyramid that were intentionally broken into fragments and cached by the Maya as they dismantled older architecture to make room for new construction. Conservation of the wall paintings has been a 20-year collaboration between an international team of conservators, archaeologists, engineers, materials scientists, excavators, epigraphers, and iconographers. In this presentation l will discuss the materials and methods used to conserve the in situ wall paintings, as well as the mural fragments now in the collection of the Museo Nacional de Arqueología y Etnología, Guatemala City. Our ultimate conservation goal was to maintain the artwork’s physical condition in ways that make space for new values and narratives to emerge. Angelyn Bass is an architectural conservator specializing in the conservation of archaeological sites, with a focus on architectural features, finishes, and wall paintings.

This work is an attempt to appreciate a distinctive form of historical consciousness, which, in keeping with broader lowland patterns, is focused on bodily states. She also connects these leaders’ small Amazonian group (the Tupian-speaking Kawaiwete) to national and world events. Both men provide unique perspectives on these as they played out in the Brazilian interior over the course of their lives, especially during the decades of the 1920s-60s. Moving beyond village-centered ethnography, Dr. Oakdale looks at how these men established long or short-term relationships with many non-Kawaiwete individuals and became part of different kinds of networks as the Brazilian interior became the target of “modern” state projects. Suzanne Oakdale is a Professor in the Department of Anthropology at UNM. She has done ethnographic research in the Brazilian Amazon as well as historical research about this area since 1989.

Located in Washington D.C., the primary goal of the Education Office of Spain is to foster collaborative educational programs between the USA and Spain, building long lasting ties among their citizens. Our flagship program, both in number and scope is the North American Language and Culture Assistants Program (NALCAP). American college students and graduates- who are native-like speakers of English - partner with elementary and secondary schools in Spain to bolster language programs, as language assistants (TAs) under the supervision and guidance of teachers in Spain. NALCAP falls under the category of public diplomacy programs. As a language assistant, you will be fulfilling the role of a cultural ambassador as you advance English language learning and mutual understanding through cultural exchange. As such, your role is to encourage students of all ages in Spain to broaden their knowledge of your language and culture.

The family exemplifies the sector once referred to as Brazil’s “new middle class”—the estimated 35 million who rose above the poverty line during 14 years of rule by the left-leaning Workers Party (PT), but whose prospects have since become precarious under conditions of economic and political crisis. Drawing from extended ethnographic fieldwork, I focus on the family’s interactions—both in-person and through online social media—between the first-round election (October 7), in which voters chose from over a dozen candidates, and the second-round election (October 28), which pitted Bolsonaro against PT candidate Fernando Haddad. Emerging within the family’s interactions are narratives of moral disintegration, nostalgia for Brazil’s 1964-1985 military dictatorship, lost masculinities, menacing sexualities, and various articulations of hope and despair for the future. I argue the crucial role of online social media (chiefly, Facebook and WhatsApp) in cultivating among family member conflicting feelings of unity and solidarity, on the one hand, and disenchantment and alienation on the other. This analysis contributes to a more nuanced account of the political affinities of Brazil’s “previously ascendant” sector during a moment of deepening economic precarity and political cynicism. Benjamin Junge is Professor of Anthropology at the State University of New York at New Paltz. His research focuses on class mobility, political attitudes, gender, sexuality, health, and religion, with regional focus on Brazil and other settings in Latin America. His recent publications include Precarious Democracy: Ethnographies of Hope, Despair and Resistance in Brazil (2021) and Cynical Citizenship: Gender, Regionalism and Political Subjectivity in Porto Alegre, Brazil (2018). He recently co-directed a three-year investigation, funded by the National Science Foundation, of political subjectivities among the demographic sector once known as Brazil’s “new middle class,” focusing on perceptions of the 2013-18 crisis, cultural memory of authoritarian pasts, and the rise of popular conservativism.-- Author Name --1507183200000Family Made Strange: The Impact of Social Media on Family Dynamics, as a Classe Popular Family from Recife, Brazil Contemplates the 2018 Presidential Elections/events/2022/04/family-made-strange-the-impact-of-social-media-on-family-dynamics,-as-a-classe-popular-family-from-recife,-brazil-contemplates-the-2018-presidential-electionslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/04/family-made-strange-the-impact-of-social-media-on-family-dynamics,-as-a-classe-popular-family-from-recife,-brazil-contemplates-the-2018-presidential-electionsmnowlin1644965729662mlinares1649888624766layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnokill-the-indian-to-save-the-man---culturally-and-linguistically-relevant-curriculum-and-the-new-social-studies-standards-in-nm---martinezyazzie-casetrue1745274333730klewis9"Kill the Indian to Save the Man" - Culturally and Linguistically Relevant Curriculum and the New Social Studies Standards in NM - (Martinez/Yazzie) CaseK-12 Education in New Mexico since the 2018 Martinez/Yazzie Decision is undergoing a major transition in terms of the historical neglect of Native American, English Language Learners and "At-Risk" students.

From external logistical challenges like traveling and conducting field research in person to internal issues that dealt with motivation, the pandemic made it seem like it would be impossible to complete a research project as the one she originally envisioned, largely based on day-to-day interactions with community members and facilitating group conversations as a research method. During this event, Acuña Balbuena will be focusing on how her research project was affected by the pandemic, how she adapted to changing global circumstances, and how she overcome personal and logistical challenges. Born and raised in Paraguay, Alejandra Acuña Balbuena started her global education from a pretty young age. She left her country for the first time at 17 to finish high school in Norway. She then continued her undergraduate education in the United States, spending some time in between studying and living in Italy. She graduated with a dual degree in Environmental Sustainability and Italian in May 2020 from the University of Oklahoma and joined the Master in Latin American Studies at UNM in fall 2020, Her main academic interests include feminist geographies, urban political ecologies, and environmental injustice in urban environments. Her research focuses on discourses around the labor of urban waste pickers in her hometown of Asunción.-- Author Name --1507183200000Research in Latin America During the Pandemic: How to Accept and Adapt to Changing Circumstances/events/2022/04/research-in-latin-america-during-the-pandemic-how-to-accept-and-adapt-to-changing-circumstanceslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/04/research-in-latin-america-during-the-pandemic-how-to-accept-and-adapt-to-changing-circumstancesmnowlin1648579907834mlinares1649091041333layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnopious-imperialism-spanish-rule-and-the-cult-of-saints-in-mexico-city1true1745274333730klewis9Pious Imperialism: Spanish Rule and the Cult of Saints in Mexico CityIn this talk, Dr. Cory Conover draws from his book Pious Imperialism: Spanish rule and the cult of saints in Mexico City to shift through the contradictory claims about the role of Catholicism in the Spanish Empire over the long seventeenth century. Using the story of an accidental Mexican martyr, Conover weaves together a global history from missionaries in Japan, to politics of Rome, to the religious culture of Mexico City. An innovative focus on Catholic worship reveals the surprising pervasiveness of Spanish holy figures who disseminated imperialism to parishioners. It also shows how colonial peoples established themselves within the sanctity of Catholic liturgy thus setting a religious stage for later independence movements.-- Author Name --1507183200000Pious Imperialism: Spanish Rule and the Cult of Saints in Mexico City/events/2022/04/pious-imperialism-spanish-rule-and-the-cult-of-saints-in-mexico-city1laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/04/pious-imperialism-spanish-rule-and-the-cult-of-saints-in-mexico-city1mlinares1648672175847mlinares1648672209497layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnocentral-american-women-in-the-workforcetrue1745274333730klewis9Central American Women in the WorkforceThis talk addresses the transnational experience of Central American women in the workforce. With migration and gender at the center of the conversation, the presentation explores the ways Central American women laborers are perceived at local and international spaces. The research for this presentation is inspired by Castillo's experience raised by four Guatemalan women and as a first-generation Guatemalan American from Los Angeles. As the first in her family to enter the university, her talk will discuss how she entered the field of research, how she conceptualizes herself in her work, and reflects on the experiences of the Central American diaspora in relation to the larger Latin American region. Joselin Castillo is a second-year MALAS student at UNM. She received a BA in Anthropology and a minor in Women, Gender and Sexuality at California State University, Los Angeles. Coming from a Guatemalan immigrant family and raised by a single mother, her research is focused on the experience of Central American mothering. Influenced by the caregivers in her life and the complex networks of communal caregiving, her research focuses on the intersectionality and transnational identity through the form of an autoethnography.-- Author Name --1507183200000Central American Women in the Workforce/events/2022/04/central-american-women-in-the-workforcelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/04/central-american-women-in-the-workforcemnowlin1649195422442mlinares1649351092956layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoraspando-coco-screening-and-director-discussiontrue1745274333730klewis9Raspando Coco Screening and Director DiscussionRaspando coco is an award-winning film about the culinary and medicinal traditions of Afro-Ecuadorians. Since its premiere in 2018, it has been screened in three different languages to audiences in Latin America, the United States, Europe and Japan. The film documents the health impacts and culinary traditions surrounding coconut as remembered and experienced by Afro-Ecuadorians in the coast of Ecuador. The movie positions communities of color as important knowledge bearers about health and food and shows the tensions that can arise when development and public health authorities label staple foods, like coconuts, unhealthy. The film would connect with students and faculty interested in food justice and sovereignty, race and racism, Afro-Latin America, oral history and ethnography, public and community health, and sustainable development and agriculture. Pilar Egüez Guevara, PhD is an Ecuadorian cultural anthropologist, writer and filmmaker. She holds a PhD in cultural anthropology from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. She has worked directly with communities for over 15 years on research and community-based projects in Argentina, Cuba, Ecuador, and the United States. Her most recent work has focused on amplifying the voices of older women and men who are the bearers of traditional knowledge about food and medicine in the coast of Ecuador. In 2012, she co-founded and currently directs Comidas que Curan, an independent food and media company dedicated to research and promote traditional foods and knowledge through ethnography and film. She most recently directed and produced Raspando coco (Scraping Coconuts) an award-winning documentary about the culinary and medicinal traditions of Afro-Ecuadorians, which has been screened to audiences in the Americas, Europe and Asia.

Beginning in 2015, communal farmers and industrial laborers, among other groups, aligned under the banner of Defense of Water to protest the construction of a United States-based beverage production facility. Through interviews, participant observation and archival research, I study this social movement through a class-based, historical lens to show how the meaning of water presupposes and represents a century of class politics that has allowed seemingly disparate groups to find meaning and build alliances within it.

They did not do the same for María, Tapia’s Indigenous translator who died together with him on the same day in Tovoropa. In this talk, I offer a reconstruction of María’s life by piecing together references to her in Jesuit letters, anuas, relations, and manuscript histories. Questioning the gendered hierarchies of mission histories, I argue that María’s life highlights the important yet often overlooked roles Indigenous women played as lay missionaries in the evangelization of Sinaloa in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.

The Colombian Guerrilla Dystopia 1948-2016Media and often academic discourse about guerrilla movements in the 20th and 21st centuries typically flattens what are substantive differences between extremely diverse armed social movements. That diversity is present not only between the armed movements of Latin American and those of the Middle East, for example and perhaps most obviously, but within Latin America itself post World War II. US academic perspectives on Latin American guerrilla movements have been and in many ways continue to be shaped by Central American nationalist, anti-imperialist armed organizations such as the FSLN (Nicaragua), the FMLN (El Salvador) and the URNG (Guatemala), or by the leftist nationalist guerrillas of the Southern Cone, such as the Tupamaros (Uruguay) or the Montoneros (Argentina). Colombia’s FARC, which was founded in 1964 but was impelled by a chain of events that exploded in 1948 stands in substantive and stark contrast to any of these other guerrilla movements.

This presentation will discuss the possible presence of Otomís and other Mesoamerican Natives as frontier settlers in 17th to 18th century New Mexico, and the traces they may have left in the cultural heritage of several Indo-Hispano communities located north of Santa Fe. A piece of possibly important evidence for this hypothesis is the set of drawings that decorate the underside of the choir-loft of the chapel of San José de Gracia de las Trampas, which contain designs that resemble closely certain symbols typical of the Otomí syncretic Christian iconography used in 17th and 18th century chapels in the Mexican states of Hidalgo and Querétaro. Because colonial documents rarely recorded the provenance and ethnicities of non-Spanish members of colonizing parties, Otomí presence is very difficult to demonstrate. However, my research has explored other sorts of indirect evidence that I will present, together with a general reflection on what indigenous groups, local or Mexican, are generally considered part of the New Mexico Hispano cultural heritage, why some of them –like the tlaxcallans– are acknowledged and others are not.-- Author Name --1507183200000Native Mesoamerican Settlers of Colonial New Mexico: Identity, Memory, Forgetting/events/2022/09/native-mesoamerican-settlers-of-colonial-new-mexico-identity,-memory,-forgettinglaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/09/native-mesoamerican-settlers-of-colonial-new-mexico-identity,-memory,-forgettingmlinares1663882471512mlinares1663883281452layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoindigenous-borderlands-in-north-america-symposiumtrue1745274333730klewis9Indigenous Borderlands in North America SymposiumThis symposium seeks to develop new borderland and border-crossing approaches to continental North America that center Indigenous peoples, homelands, political concerns, and related dynamics – temporally and spatially expanding borderlands frameworks.-- Author Name --1507183200000Indigenous Borderlands in North America Symposium/events/2022/09/indigenous-borderlands-in-north-america-symposiumlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/09/indigenous-borderlands-in-north-america-symposiummlinares1666133315776mlinares1666133315776layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno10true1666633071776mnowlinOctober/events/2022/10laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/10mlinares1642196999526mlinares1642196999526contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9OctoberOctober/events/2022/10/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/10/indexmlinares1642196999574mlinares1642196999574layout2 Columnshow-in-navnonorth-south-encounters-the-inter-american-beginnings-of-community-development-programstrue1745274333730klewis9North-South Encounters: the Inter-American beginnings of community development programsIn this presentation, Thiago Lopes will discuss some of the findings of his postdoctoral research project on the history of social-scientific exchanges and rural development policies in the Americas in the 1940s. Drawing on his recent research experience at the Center for Southwest Research/University of New Mexico, he will focus on the role played by U.S. rural sociologist T. Lynn Smith in the agricultural cooperation policies of the Roosevelt Administration for the Americas. Smith’s diplomatic and scientific missions to South America, allowing him to engage in meaningful intellectual dialogues with Latin American thinkers such as the Brazilian writer Oliveira Vianna, were a key factor in his own reformist efforts of strengthening communitarian forms of life amid the negative effects of capitalist development in the countryside. According to Thiago Lopes, Smith’s work gives us an opportunity to reexamine traditional narratives in Scientific and Intellectual History concerning the flow of ideas and developmental models from the Global North to the Global South while also inviting us to investigate theoretical and methodological ways of addressing power asymmetries in the global production/circulation of knowledge. -- Author Name --1507183200000North-South Encounters: the Inter-American beginnings of community development programs/events/2022/10/north-south-encounters-the-inter-american-beginnings-of-community-development-programslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/10/north-south-encounters-the-inter-american-beginnings-of-community-development-programsmlinares1664990436264mlinares1665075852106layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoan-evening-for-educators-día-de-los-muertostrue1745274333730klewis9An Evening for Educators Día de los MuertosSpend a lively evening exploring Día de los Muertos celebrations, arts, and history at the National Hispanic Cultural Center.

Chacón and Poesía y prosaEl feliz ingenio neomexicano (UNM Press 2021) is a bilingual recovery edition of Obras de Felipe Maximiliano Chacón, el Cantor Neomexicano: Poesía y prosa, the first collection of poetry published by a Mexican American author. Journalist and author Felipe M. Chacón, part of a distinguished and active family of nuevomexicano authors, published the book in Albuquerque in 1924, on the presses of the bilingual newspaper La bandera americana. El feliz ingenio neomexicano (that “inspired New Mexican wit”) reestablishes Chacón’s work and his reputation by making the text widely available to readers for the first time in nearly a century. In this talk, Dr. Anna M. Nogar and Dr. A Gabriel Meléndez discuss the enduring legacy of Felipe M. Chacón's deeply bilingual writing, created and shared during New Mexico's fraught 19th and early 20th centuries. Anna M. Nogar is Professor in the University of New Mexico’s Department of Spanish and Portuguese. She is the author, editor, and coeditor of several books, including Quill and Cross in the Borderlands: Sor María de Ágreda and the Lady in Blue, 1628 to the Present; A History of Mexican Literature; and Sisters in Blue: Sor María de Ágreda Comes to New Mexico / Hermanas de Azul: Sor María de Ágreda viene a Nuevo México (UNM Press). A. Gabriel Meléndez is a Distinguished University Professor and the former director of the Center for Regional Studies at the University of New Mexico. Meléndez is the author, editor, and coeditor of numerous books, including The Book of Archives and Other Stories from the Mora Valley, New Mexico; Santa Fe Nativa: A Collection of Nuevomexicano Writing (UNM Press); and The Writings of Eusebio Chacón (UNM Press).-- Author Name --1507183200000Lo que logra "El Feliz Ingenio Neomexicano": Felipe M.

In addition to its status as a clearly ordered anthology with works by a single composer, Mexican-born Francisco López Capillas (1614-74), the most outstanding feature of this book is the quantity, quality, and artistic originality of its initials. The iconographic charge of these initials articulates a political agenda with implications beyond the music itself. Using the notion of cultural artifact and applying a multi-dimensional analysis, in this presentation Dr. Marín-López explores the discourses that emerge when interpreting the book as an act of symbolic communication of Creole agency. -- Author Name --1507183200000Creole Politics and Visual Culture in Baroque Mexico: Francisco López Capillas and a Transatlantic Music Manuscript /events/2022/11/creole-politics-and-visual-culture-in-baroque-mexico-francisco-lópez-capillas-and-a-transatlantic-music-manuscriptlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/11/creole-politics-and-visual-culture-in-baroque-mexico-francisco-lópez-capillas-and-a-transatlantic-music-manuscriptmnowlin1666628143121mlinares1666812813825layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoboren-awards-and-foreign-language-and-area-studies-flas-fellowships-info-sessiontrue1745274333730klewis9Boren Awards and Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowships Info-SessionBoren Awards -Boren Awards provide funds up to $25,000 to undergraduate students and up to $30,000 to graduate students who study languages considered essential for U.S. national security by the federal government, including Arabic, Hindi, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian, and Swahili. -Fellows must commit to working in the U.S. federal government for at least one year.

Significantly, the intervention of the US Armed Forces during the Invasion of the Port of Veracruz in 1914 and the Punitive Expedition in 1916-17 against revolutionary leader “Pancho” Villa in Northern Mexico marked key events for the postcards’ business. In the following presentation, I will show, in the first place, the link between the deployment of the advanced military apparatus and the development of technological images in a crucial Latin American revolution. And, in the second place, I will problematize the visual memory of mass graves, executions, and unknown human remains through images attributed to the American Walter Horne and other postcards producers, observing these images beyond the racialized perspective that represented the “savage” violence in Mexico.-- Author Name --1507183200000Death on the Other Side: The Mexican Revolution through the Lens of US Postcards Companies/events/2022/11/death-on-the-other-side-the-mexican-revolution-through-the-lens-of-us-postcards-companieslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/11/death-on-the-other-side-the-mexican-revolution-through-the-lens-of-us-postcards-companiesmnowlin1667331625129mlinares1667839396192layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoel-llano-the-making-and-remaking-of-a-mexican-homeland-on-the-southwest-great-plains-borderlandstrue1745274333730klewis9El Llano: The Making and Remaking of a Mexican Homeland on the Southwest-Great Plains BorderlandsThe United States’ Mexican population has come to the forefront of public and academic exchanges amidst the past two presidential campaigns and ensuing political debates regarding immigration policy and border security. Yet, these discussions consistently neglect Mexicans’ long-term history in what is now the United States, along with their enduring social influence throughout the nation. A prime example of this neglected history is the ethnic Mexican past of the Southern Great Plains, a vast transregional grassland larger than California that stretches from southeastern Colorado and southwestern Kansas, down across eastern New Mexico and western Oklahoma to central Texas.-- Author Name --1507183200000El Llano: The Making and Remaking of a Mexican Homeland on the Southwest-Great Plains Borderlands/events/2022/11/el-llano-the-making-and-remaking-of-a-mexican-homeland-on-the-southwest-great-plains-borderlandslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2022/11/el-llano-the-making-and-remaking-of-a-mexican-homeland-on-the-southwest-great-plains-borderlandsmnowlin1667332621783mnowlin1669072829843layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnolaii-field-research-grant-information-sessiontrue1745274333730klewis9LAII Field Research Grant Information SessionPlease join us for an in-person information session about the LAII Field Research Grant.  TheLAII Field Research Grant provides graduate or professional students the opportunity to conduct preliminary research in Latin America for their degree projects, as well as faculty the opportunity to begin fieldwork on new projects or add a comparative dimension to previous research.

While he takes their small herd of llamas out to graze, she keeps house and walks for miles with the other local women to fetch precious water. When an uncommonly long drought threatens everything they know, Virginio and Sisa must decide whether to stay and maintain their traditional way of life or admit defeat and move in with family members in the city. Their dilemma is precipitated by the arrival of their grandson Clever, who comes to visit with news. The three of them must face, each in their own way, the effects of a changing environment, the importance of tradition, and the meaning of life itself. This visually jaw-dropping debut feature by photographer-turned-filmmaker Alejandro Loayza Grisi is lensed by award-winning cinematographer Barbara Alvarez (Lucretia Martel’s The Headless Woman) and won the Grand Jury Prize (World Cinema Dramatic) at the Sundance Film Festival.-- Author Name --1507183200000UTAMA Film Screening/events/2023/01/utama-film-screeninglaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/01/utama-film-screeningmlinares1674056174102mlinares1674056270942layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoforeign-language-and-area-studies-flas-fellowship-qa-sessiontrue1745274333730klewis9Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship Q&A SessionSummer and Academic Year (AY) FLAS Fellowships are awarded to undergraduate and graduate students to study less-commonly taught languages, including Nahuatl, Quechua, Portuguese, and Yucatec Maya, in combination with area-studies, international studies or international aspects of professional studies-- Author Name --1507183200000Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship Q&A Session/events/2023/01/foreign-language-and-area-studies-flas-fellowship-qa-sessionlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/01/foreign-language-and-area-studies-flas-fellowship-qa-sessionmlinares1674057017107mlinares1674057017107layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnosummer-foreign-language-and-area-studies-flas-fellowship-info-session-for-cnm,-nmsu,-and-other-minority-serving-institutionstrue1745274333730klewis9Summer Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship Info-Session for CNM, NMSU, and Other Minority-Serving InstitutionsSummer Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowships are awarded to undergraduate and graduate students to study less-commonly taught languages, including Nahuatl, Quechua, Portuguese, and Yucatec Maya.

This creative renaissance raises the following questions: Why are Latinx creators drawn to the speculative genres of science fiction, fantasy, and horror, and why now? What is aesthetically exceptional about these new Latinx speculative worlds? With these questions in mind, the Latinx Visions project is gathering, for the first time, some of the most prominent scholars working on this topic for a conference at the University of New Mexico on March 9-11, 2023. The members of the project team, Matthew David Goodwin, Cathryn Merla-Watson, and Santiago Vaquera-Vásquez, have each been guiding the development of this field for over a decade, and are uniquely prepared to bring together the various threads of scholarship from across the Humanities. The conference will be free and open to the public, both virtual and in person. Approximately seventy professors will give presentations at the conference, and we expect that there will be at least a hundred students attending over the course of the conference. Following the conference, the project team will arrange the conference papers into a volume of revised and peer-reviewed chapters. The edited volume, Latinx Visions, is slated to be published in September of 2024 through the Ohio State University Press for their book series “New Suns: Race, Gender, and Sexuality.” In addition to the publication of an edited volume, the conference will result in the creation of a multimedia archive accessible to academics and the larger public that will be housed at the website www.latinxarchive.com. In sum, the Latinx Visions project will forge a vital arena for understanding Latinx speculative worlds, significantly advancing the state of this rapidly growing field.-- Author Name --1507183200000Latinx Visions: Speculative Worlds in Latinx Art, Literature, and Performance/events/2023/03/latinx-visions-speculative-worlds-in-latinx-art,-literature,-and-performancelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/03/latinx-visions-speculative-worlds-in-latinx-art,-literature,-and-performancemlinares1674585240180mlinares1674585440033layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoworking-with-immigrant-and-refugee-communities-training-opportunities-and-career-advicetrue1745274333730klewis9Working With Immigrant and Refugee Communities: Training Opportunities and Career AdviceLearn about training opportunities, valuable skills, and career advice that will prepare you to work effectively with migrant and refugee communities.-- Author Name --1507183200000Working With Immigrant and Refugee Communities: Training Opportunities and Career Advice/events/2023/03/working-with-immigrant-and-refugee-communities-training-opportunities-and-career-advicelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/03/working-with-immigrant-and-refugee-communities-training-opportunities-and-career-advicemlinares1677694019544sanchezdl1698272185541layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoworking-with-immigrant-and-refugee-communities-in-albuquerquetrue1745274333730klewis9Working With Immigrant and Refugee Communities in AlbuquerqueLearn about volunteering opportunities in ABQ that will help you prepare and gain valuable experience to work with migrants from Latin America and other parts of the world.-- Author Name --1507183200000Working With Immigrant and Refugee Communities in Albuquerque/events/2023/03/working-with-immigrant-and-refugee-communities-in-albuquerquelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/03/working-with-immigrant-and-refugee-communities-in-albuquerquemlinares1677694371719mlinares1677694371719layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoland-based-organizing-in-caño-martín-peña-community-land-trust,-san-juan,-puerto-rico---a-community-control-model-for-informal-settlements-in-latin-america-and-beyondtrue1745274333730klewis9Land-Based Organizing in Caño Martín Peña Community Land Trust, San Juan, Puerto Rico - A Community Control Model for Informal Settlements in Latin America and BeyondAs informal settlements face increasing threats of dispossession, residents, and planners are looking to the Community Land Trust (CLT) model as a tool to promote community control and affordable housing preservation.

Early artists, upon its founding in 1937 in Mexico City were concerned with education of the masses, and in turn, converted the rural schoolteacher into a visual trope in their portfolios. By nuancing these images, this lecture will analyze how they have articulated and disarticulated nationalism, gender-based violence, and notions of racialization. -- Author Name --1507183200000The Sentimentalization of La Maestra Rural: Race, Gender and Violence in the Taller de Gráfica Popular/events/2023/08/the-sentimentalization-of-la-maestra-rural-race-gender-and-violence-in-the-taller-de-gráfica-popularlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/08/the-sentimentalization-of-la-maestra-rural-race-gender-and-violence-in-the-taller-de-gráfica-popularmlinares1692127327290mlinares1692129652383layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldno09true1695674056347mpmacias77September/events/2023/09laii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/09mlinares1674055751848mlinares1674055751848contextual_navindextrue1745274333730klewis9SeptemberSeptember/events/2023/09/indexlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/09/indexmlinares1674055751897mlinares1674055751897layout2 Columnshow-in-navnochile-after-pinochet-the-limits-of-post-dictatorship-transitiontrue1745274333730klewis9Chile after Pinochet: The Limits of Post-Dictatorship Transition-- Author Name --1507183200000Chile after Pinochet: The Limits of Post-Dictatorship Transition/events/2023/09/chile-after-pinochet-the-limits-of-post-dictatorship-transitionlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/09/chile-after-pinochet-the-limits-of-post-dictatorship-transitionmpmacias771692637653765mpmacias771692637653765layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnollc-speaker-series-revitalizing-indigenous-languagestrue1745274333730klewis9LLC SPEAKER SERIES: REVITALIZING INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES-- Author Name --1507183200000LLC SPEAKER SERIES: REVITALIZING INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES/events/2023/09/llc-speaker-series-revitalizing-indigenous-languageslaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/09/llc-speaker-series-revitalizing-indigenous-languagesmpmacias771695672523081mpmacias771695672523081layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnodespedidas-con-mariachis-examining-covid-19s-impact-on-mexican-americans-in-southern-californiatrue1745274333730klewis9Despedidas con Mariachis: Examining COVID-19's Impact on Mexican Americans in Southern California-- Author Name --1507183200000Despedidas con Mariachis: Examining COVID-19's Impact on Mexican Americans in Southern California/events/2023/09/despedidas-con-mariachis-examining-covid-19s-impact-on-mexican-americans-in-southern-californialaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/09/despedidas-con-mariachis-examining-covid-19s-impact-on-mexican-americans-in-southern-californiampmacias771692553058943mpmacias771693666818979layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoexamining-the-human-rights-legacy-in-chiletrue1745274333730klewis9Examining the Human Rights Legacy in Chile-- Author Name --1507183200000Examining the Human Rights Legacy in Chile/events/2023/09/examining-the-human-rights-legacy-in-chilelaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/events/2023/09/examining-the-human-rights-legacy-in-chilempmacias771692636312056klewis91724893432937layout2 Columnshow-in-nav Fieldnoglory-gone-an-immersive-operatrue1745274333730klewis9GLORY GONE.

There are many culturally distinct practices and characteristic of Afro-Latinidad, each region having a diverse and rich manifestation of this cross-cultural identity. African cultural traditions have permeated Latin America for hundreds of years, some being obvious and others more subtle. Only recently have many countries begun to start the process of officially recognizing Latin Americans of African decent.

The unit presented during this workshop unit focuses on a broader collective resistance of Indigenous peoples in Latin America and their leadership in the fight for climate justice. This includes an entire unit on the documentary La Vocera, and two additional lesson plans - one of which encourages students to create their own documentary on climate justice and resiliency in their own communities. The resources below are targeted towards middle school students, but can be applied to all classrooms with adaptation.Indigenous Climate Resiliencies in Latin America: Teaching Climate Justice and Local Activism Through Documentary Film/info/k-12-educators/curriculum/indigenous-climate-resiliencies-in-latin-america-teaching-climate-justice-and-local-activism-through-documentary-filmlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/info/k-12-educators/curriculum/indigenous-climate-resiliencies-in-latin-america-teaching-climate-justice-and-local-activism-through-documentary-filmmetither1647905577995metither1649699454503layout2 Columnshow-in-navnocssidteaching-cop26-and-indigenous-activism-in-the-classroomtrue1745274333730klewis9Teaching COP26 and Indigenous Activism in the Classroom The University of New Mexico’s Latin American & Iberian Institute (LAII) will be hosting a free professional development workshop for educators to explore the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Convention of Parties (COP26). We are very excited to be joined by Dr. Andreas Hernandez, who will be conducting a presentation during the first half of the workshop. Dr. Hernandez’ research, filmmaking and teaching examines just transitions to sustainability and regeneration. His focus is on social movements and ecovillages in Brazil, and their construction of agroecological systems and emergent politics and worldviews. He also examines how social movement activity can be translated and implemented into social policy and may engage with the United Nations System. [Note: this information has been taken from the link above.] In this presentation, Dr. Hernandez will provide a background on the United Nations System, its history, and global role. He will also provide an overview of the Paris Agreement. Combined, this presentation will provide educators with the background needed to engage with this topic in the classroom. Following the presentation by Dr. Hernandez, the workshop will present opportunities for educators to apply the knowledge learned in the context of teaching COP26, and allied Indigenous climate activism, in the classroom. Educators will participate in simulated classroom activities taken from lesson plans created by the LAII. These include activities that explain the COP (What is it? What happened? Why is it important?) and a stimulated conference/debate activity mirroring the COP process. Additionally, a media literacy lesson plan will be presented which prepares students to critically analyze content featured in the media, focusing on COP26 and Indigenous climate activism. This workshop connects to the broader theme of this spring semester by centering Indigenous voices, experiences, power, and activism as it pertains to climate justice. It provides educators with pertinent resources to approach the topic of COP26 which have the potential to stimulate students to think about climate globally and realize their potential to protect our planet. The resources presented at this workshop are targeted at high school students but can be applied to all classrooms with adaptation.Teaching COP26 and Indigenous Activism in the Classroom /info/k-12-educators/curriculum/teaching-cop26-and-indigenous-activism-in-the-classroomlaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/info/k-12-educators/curriculum/teaching-cop26-and-indigenous-activism-in-the-classroommetither1650047582805metither1651698655981layout2 Columnshow-in-navnocssidreimagining-the-bordertrue1745274333730klewis9Reimagining the U.S.-Mexico BorderIn this hands-on workshop, educators learned how to incorporate the concepts of Latinx Futurisms, imagination, and the reality of the US- Mexíco border into their classroom teaching.

In the summer of 2022, Smith contacted Dr. Gigi Schroeder Yu, UNM art education professor, to inquire about sharing the collection with the program. Dr. Yu and UNM art education students Marley Hidalgo and Marissa Mascarenas began meeting to study the collection with Emmy Tither and graduate students Madeline Griffin and Whitney Wagner from UNM Latin American and Iberian Institute, K-12 outreach. Together, they decided to create an exhibition featuring children’s paintings and drawings from Latin American and Central American countries: Honduras, Brazil, and Argentina. The team was also curious how children from our local New Mexico contexts would perceive and visually interpret the concept of place. Elementary art teachers were contacted to inquire about their interest in submitting children’s artwork.

National Endowment for the Humanities 2025 K-12 Educators Summer Institute:  Reimagining the US Mexican Border Through Multimodal StorytellingIn this 2025 NEH Summer Institute , K-12th grade educators representing diverse contexts will use the power of storytelling to investigate the U.S.-Mexico border. By interweaving multimodalities - visual, sound, and movement and with reading children’s literature deeply, participants will create complex narrative tapestries of experience and empathy on the border that they will, in turn, use to support student conversations and conceptions.​NEH Summer Institute/reimagining-the-us-mexican-border-through-multimodal-storytellinglaii.unm.edu V2site://laii.unm.edu V2/reimagining-the-us-mexican-border-through-multimodal-storytellingklewis91737646901690klewis91745255535852layout2 Columnshow-in-navyescssidDonate NowDonate Now/Donate Nowlaii.unm.edu V2willow1739309706281willow1739309706281show-in-navyeshttps://laii.unm.edu/about/give-to-the-laii.htmlLatin American & Iberian Institutehttps://laii.unm.edu/
