Imagining Latinidades

Darrel, Ariana, and Rene tell their Latina/o/x (superhero) origin stories, talk about the evolution of the Latina/o Studies Program at Iowa, and riff on what Imagining Latinidades means to them.

Show Notes

Darrel, Ariana, and Rene record their first full episode in a real honest-to-goodness studio that doesn’t have terrible acoustics. The episode also has chapters; so you’ll see topics change depending on your podcast app (Overcast shows these well). Topics in this episode include:
  • Rene’s backstory
  • Darrel’s backstory
  • Rene and all having a discussion about “me-search”
  • Ariana’s backstory
  • Latina/o Studies at Iowa
  • The Sawyer Seminar
  • What’s next…
