Lecture on how the Maya could have affected their own climate.
Climate Change and Violence? Cautionary Tales from the Pre-Columbian Andes The seminar will take place on January 25, 2008, 4 to 5 PM, in 201 Old Chem Building, West Campus, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. Dr. Arkush received her PhD at UCLA in 2005. Her research centers on the interplay of warfare, political power, social identity, and ritual in the prehispanic Andes. Her doctoral research focused on the later part of the prehispanic sequence after about A.D. 1000, when many small polities throughout the Andes were apparently engaged in cycles of endemic warfare. Fieldwork on a suite of fortified hilltop sites in the northern Lake Titicaca basin in Peru investigated the regional patterns that emerged from conflictual and cooperative social relationships. This study also examined the chronology of fortification to question current interpretations of the causes of intergroup violence at the time.

Noche de Candela - September 15, 2006 "Noches de Candela" poetic vigils are a series of literary events aimed at invoking the Oshun-Chango spirit to produce a major "Rumba in San Juan de Ulua" fortress in Veracruz, Mexico summer 2007 where humanists are to meet to pay homage to the African ancestors through their song and witnessing. San Juan de Ulua was the door of entry for hundreds of thousands of enslaved Africans during the Spanish colonial period which lasted around three hundred years in that region of the continent now a part of Mexico. This foremost chapter of the history of the diverse African presence and permanence in Mexico has been kept silent. The souls of these ancestors are trapped in oblivion, official negation and the Eurocentric account of the facts that has dominated Mexican history. The common thread for these events will be "Marronage and Manumission in the Americas: an Alternate Vision of Planetary History."

Don Mariano Leyva Dominquez (QEPD), Los Mascarones y Teatro Chicano Los Mascarones became the most well known and respected theatre group in Mexico, largely because of the political content of its work, but also because it played a major role in developing linkages with like-minded groups in the United States and across Latin America. It was founded in 1963 at the Prepa No. 6 in downtown Mexico City with five members and a director named Mariano Leyva Dominguez. Their name derived from the masks, or mascaras, that bordered the entrance to the school. . . .

Esteban Valdes Salazar is the municipal historian ("cronista") of the municipality of Totatiche, Jalisco. He was born in Totatiche and as an adult moved to Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, where he worked as a verger in one of the local parishes. It was there that his interest in genealogy and historical research began after he was exposed to the disciplines by a parrishioner. While still living in Monterrey, he wrote his first book, Los Valdes de Totatiche, which documents the various branches of the Valdes family in Totatiche and Colotlan, Jalisco. His second book, El sacerdocio ministerial, singular don de la parroquia de Totatiche, Jalisco, documents the descendants of Joseph Cayetano Grano and his six daughters, who are considered pivotal figures in the history of Totatiche and who are the ancestors of most of the illustrious clergy that has come from Totatiche. He has also documented the genealogy of Saint Cristobal Magallanes Jara, who was born and served as priest in Totatiche, and most recently wrote a two volume history of Totatiche. This history, which was published by the Ministry of Culture of the State of Jalisco, can be found in many of the most renowned libraries in the United States. Arturo Ramos is an economist in Washington, DC. His family immigrated to Los Angeles, where he was born, from the vicinity of Totatiche, Jalisco. His interest in genealogy was inspired by his father, who had himself collected and compiled subtantial genealogical information about their family before Arturo joined the effort. Arturo is an active member of the Nuestros Ranchos genealogy group (http://NuestrosRanchos.com) and has traced many of his lineages back to the 17th century. He is currently writing a book which explores the historical ethnography of the Totatiche region and documents his father's genealogy within this ethnological context.

This Podcast was conducted by Bazooka Joe of the Small World Podcast. Please visit his site to find many many high quality inteviews on a variety of topics. http://www.smallworldpodcast.com Interview with Dr. Dona De Sanctis of the Order Sons of Italy in America about the Columbus: Fact vs. Fiction report which presents a series of documented facts on the life of Columbus, his explorations and their significance, as well as the history of Columbus Day in the United States. We discuss the controversial charges about the explorer that have been levied in recent years, accusing him of racism, genocide and slave trading; how Columbus was considered a hero for most of U.S. history; pictures, painting and postage stamps of Columbus; the reputation of Columbus which they say has suffered at the hands of special interest groups since 1992 to further their 21st century political and social agendas; the true accomplishments and mistakes of Columbus; who really discovered Amercia; John Cabot; Giovanni da Verrazano; Amerigo Vespucci; diseases and pestililence brought to the new world; cocaine and tobacco; charges of racism against Columbus; his belief in God; clashes with the Taino, Arawaks, Caribs and Canibs; slavery; cannibalism; judging 15th century morality by 21st century values; striving to live by our ideals. Featured song is "One Love One World" by Craymo.
'The Grass Widow of the North' is a title that is analogous to a hunting and gathering culture where the men of a tribe or village go hunting and their wives/women stay in a temporary communal hut...married women but without their men. Such women were known as "grass widows." When the hunters triumphantly return with their "trophies" of flesh, there is a huge celebration and all the people celebrate with a huge feast that culminates in the burning of hut. In this poem, this woman is apart from her husband because he's gone to look for work in the North. The words are also sound effects and, if you listen carefully, you can hear "La Llorona" in the wind and a reference to the children's rhyme, "Que llueva, que llueva, la Virgen en la cueva" I sang with my playmates when it rained. 'Tempus Fugit' Stopped in Its Tracks is an oxymoronic reference to time flying but going nowhere because it is stopped. The poem also refers to a popular 1930s song generally played on an accordian. The poem also refers to the Quetzalquatl legend and Malinche. 'Mexico' touches on the oil boom and resultant financial depression of the 1980s. Margarita Vallazza's book is out of print but she has a few copies available, contact her directly at: TeaCozyGran@kc.rr.com
The Engadgets Podcast is usually about technical reviews of different electronic "gadgets." On show #18 they stepped off the path of truth and onto the path of the erroneous mainstream teaching by repeating that it was "ONLY THE FRENCH" that came to the assistance of the United States in the Revolutionary War. Listen to Lila Guzman PhD. refute this heresy.
This interview of Professor George Ryskamp took place immediately after the Hispanic Family History Symposium at the National Archives in Washington, DC on Sept. 24, 2005 and is the first in the New Podcast Series called Nuestra Familia Unida.
I am very proud to introduce Claire Prechtel-Kluskens, Archivist at the National Archives. Archivist Kluskens made two presentations at the Hispanic Family History Symposium on September 24, 2005 in Washington, D.C. The opening presentation of the Symposium was titled, "Getting Started."
Professor Ryskamp's second presentation was titled, "Archives." This presentation is very valuable for those researching abroad or those in search of finding valuable online resources.
Her second message was a power house presentation on the subject of one of her main work projects at the National Archives, "Mexican Border Crossing Records." I'm sure you will all agree that these two messages are worth their weight in gold especially if you are just starting off in Genealogy or have hit a brick wall because you don't know "where" in Mexico your family came from. If the latter is your situation there is a strong chance you can find the information you need to get started in the many rolls of "Mexican Border Crossing Record" films that NARA owns. The website associated with Archivist Claire Prechtel-Kluskens' presentation is: http://www.archives.gov/genealogy/immigration/border-mexico.html
I am very pleased to introduce Professor George Ryskamp, Jurist Doctor Accredited Genealogist. Professor Ryskamp has been an Associate Professor of History at Brigham Young University since 1993 after many years as an Attorney at Law in private practice in Riverside, California. His keynote presentation at the Hispanic Family History Symposium was titled, "Finding A Place." As many who have researched their family history know "Finding A Place" is the major battle. Once Victorious in this battle the path to success in researching family history is near at hand. I'm sure you will all enjoy and find great value in the presentation.
I am very happy to introduce Richard Fusick Archivist in the Public Land Records department at the National Archives. Archivist Fusick presents a great presentation on Public Land Records and what records NARA has and doesn't have. As for Spanish Land Records Archivist Fusick gives information on the limited records that NARA owns and other places where they can be found.
