DEPARTMENT OF CHICANO and LATINO STUDIES SPEAKER SERIES EVENT

THE DEPARTMENT OF CHICANO and LATINO STUDIES is pleased to present the first event of their Spring 2017 Critical Conversations Speaker Series entitled “"Beyond the Wall: Border Disruptions and Creative Resistance" by Professor Michelle Téllez. This talk looks at the physical U.S./Mexico border not just as a site of passage, a crossing line of militarized surveillance and policing, or political boundary; rather, it uncovers the borderlands as a space of resistance, conviviality, agency, creative community building, and a space where transformative politics can take place. This event will talk place on February 2, 2017 from 4:15- 6:00PM in The Nolte Center.
