Resources

Thank you for joining us in the looking together event at Memorial Library (University of Wisconsin-Madison)! 

Here are some pictures of several materials we displayed in our session, as well as the playlist we curated for this event (two hours and twelve minutes of music!).

 In this site, we are also sharing some resources and materials related to Latinx archives, as well as resources on music created in migratory processes. 

We hope you can enjoy them and share.
