This podcast series surveys the unique ecosystem of contemporary scholarship and art being generated by scholars and creatives in New England who are working in Latin American and Caribbean Studies. Episodes in the series address topics such as knowledge production and technological adaptation in the Global South; trans activism and feminism in transnational perspective; indigenous perspectives on the cosmos and the capitalist state; and processes of cultural hybridization though migration and South-South relations. Join us for a fascinating set of conversations from thinkers and innovators crossing boundaries and expanding the frontiers of Latin American and Caribbean Studies. The music for Crossing Fronteras was written, performed, and recorded by Dr. Carlos Odria, a Peruvian-born guitarist and ethnomusicologist, and an Assistant Professor of Music and Interdisciplinary Arts at the Visual and Performing Arts Department at Worcester State University.
