Disrupting Mining in Honduras
Disrupting Mining in Honduras
Anti-mining movements have put extractivism on the defensive in Honduras. Why did mining production fail to expand in Honduras despite some of—if not the— most aggressive pro-extractive reforms on the continent? Both existing theories of extractivism and social movements have difficulty explaining this outcome.
On March 21 at 6 p.m in Liberal Arts room 136, interrogate the conflict between extraction, public health, and the environment with Nate Edenhofer of UCSC, who has done extensive research on the subject as demonstrated in Honduras. He will share information gathered from 45 interviews with Hondurans and trace the strategies of capital, the state, and social movements.

Electrifying Mexico
Electrifying Mexico
On April 11 at 6 p.m in Liberal Arts room 136, Dr. Diana Montaño, Associate Professor of History at Washington University at St. Louis, presents her book, “Electrifying Mexico: Technology and the transformation of a Modern City.”
Montaño explores the role of electricity in Mexico’s economic and political evolution. She outlines the ways that the coal-deficient country pioneered large-scale hydroelectricity and sought to face the world as a scientifically enlightened “empire of peace.” Montaño documents inventions and adaptations that served local needs while fostering new ideas of time and space, body and self, the national and the foreign. Complicating historical discourses in which Latin Americans merely use technologies developed elsewhere, here Montaño emphasizes a particular national culture of scientific progress and its contributions to a uniquely Mexican modernist political subjectivity.

Beyond Fordlândia
Due to unforeseen complications related to screening rights, the screening of the film Beyond Fordlandia that had been scheduled for Fri March 3rd has been CANCELLED.
On Friday March 3rd at 3pm in LA 136 we will screen the documentary film, Beyond Fordlândia (Dir. Marcos Colón, 1h7min), an environmental account ninety years on from Henry Ford’s failure in the Amazon that left ravaged lands and a ghost town of shattered dreams. In 1927 the Ford Motor Company attempted to establish rubber plantations on the Tapajós River, a primary tributary of the Amazon, yet despite Ford's pioneering spirit, the project was doomed to failure and provides a cautionary tale of senseless exploitation. The film draws parallels with the Ford era as it addresses the recent transition from failed rubber to successful soybean cultivation for export, highlighting the heartbreaking implications for the Amazonian land and its people.
The screening, co-sponsored by the Department of History and Latin American Studies is free and open to the public.

Fandango at the Wall
On Wednesday March 9 at 4 pm in LA 136 Latin American Studies will screen the film Fandango at the Wall. This beautiful and thought-provoking film features a journey through Mexico to explore a 300 year-old Mexican folk tradition--son jarocho—a binational fandango festival on both sides of the US/Mexico border, the conditions of life in Mexico, and the politics of migration. The ultimate message of the film is the triumph of unity through music over division.
You can see a trailer for the film at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skMcKWbF3Jg
For more information about the project (including a book and audio album), see the project web page at: https://fandangowall.com
After the in-person screening, the film’s director Varda Bar-Kar and multi Grammy-winning musician Arturo O’Farrill will connect for a Zoom Q & A. We’ll also stream the documentary on Zoom for people unable to attend the in-person screening. In order to attend via Zoom you must register before the event at http://eepurl.com/hVzvOX or by scanning the QR code here.

Black Women, CitizenShip,
and the Making of modern Cuba
On Wed. February 23 at 4 pm, Dr. Takkara Brunson, Associate Professor of History at Texas A&M, will discuss her new book, Black Women, Citizenship, and the Making of Modern Cuba. In her new book Brunson demonstrates that between the 1886 abolition of slavery in Cuba and the 1959 Revolution, Black women—without formal political power—navigated political movements in their efforts to create a more just society. She examines how women helped build a Black public sphere as they claimed moral respectability and sought racial integration.

Painting Across the Border
Latin American studies would like to invite you to an extraordinary event!
On Thursday February 17 at 7 pm, Nogales (Sonora)-based artist José Luis Sotero will present “Painting across the Border.” Sotero was detained in 2015 when trying to cross the border, spent a year in detention, and was then deported to Mexico. He is a self-taught painter who is using his art to paint the stories of migrants who seek to escape violence and poverty in the hope of a decent life. He would not be permitted to cross the border to join us, but through Zoom José Luis will share his experiences as well as his striking art.
The event is free and open to everyone, everywhere, though you must register ahead of time in order to receive the Zoom link. You can register with the QR code on the poster or at: eepurl.com/hS61cP
The presentation will be in Spanish with simultaneous interpretation. The event is sponsored by Latin American Studies, Global Languages and Cultures, and the NAU student club, No More Deaths/No más muertes.

S'ammutadori - We Are Not Alone
Sardinian animation studio comes to Flagstaff!
NAU welcomes Francesca Floris and Fabrizio di Palma: The goal of their production company is to tell stories that are inclusive and that offer a fair representation of the LGBT+ community and love.
Join us Friday, February 11 at 1pm in Liberal Arts 123, as they present their 2021 Short Film "S'AMMUTADORI - WE ARE NOT ALONE". The short tells the story of Anna and Las, two girls who are both experiencing horrible nightmares. Each of them fights with their ammuntadore, or rather, with their own perception of it. The ammuntadore, in Sardinian culture, represents the demon of the night. He assaults us while we sleep and shows us the origin of our greatest fears: the deepest ones.

LAS Presents: Zurita: Verás no ver
On Tue Nov 9 at 7 pm in LA 120, Latin American Studies will present the documentary, Zurita: Verás no ver (Zurita: You Will See not to See).
Chilean poet Raúl Zurita has been recognized with some of the most prestigious literary awards of the Spanish speaking world, including the Chilean National Prize, the Pablo Neruda Prize, and the Premio Reina Sofía. Zurita began his career as a founding member of the Collective of Art Actions (CADA), a fascinating group of artists and writers that carried out neo avant-garde art actions in the streets of Santiago during the dictatorship.
NAU Professor Robert Neustadt, who has published a book about CADA and interviewed Zurita, will introduce the film with a presentation about the poet, the historical/political context that shaped his career, and his work with CADA (which he believes shaped the trajectory of Zurita's career). The presentation will be in English; the film is in Spanish with English subtitles.
Please visit here for a trailer of the film.
