We engage in some more groaning about how the semester is beating us up, we get to work talking about the recent Latina/o/x Migration symposium, the upcoming Palante, Siempre Palante screening (with filmmaker and former Young Lord, Iris Morales!), and the upcoming Latina/o/x Citizenship and National Belonging symposium. Check the chapter markers for a detailed list of topics.
