Ep.201 features Lindsay Adams (b. 1990, Washington, D.C.) , an Artist working across traditional mediums. Embracing her intersectional identity, Lindsay's work serves as both a reflection and extension of self, challenging narratives of both race and representation, reflecting on personal and collective histories and memories, while simultaneously mining through the complexity of the black experience. Lindsay's current body of work is a visual and conceptual investigation of the balance between certainty and imagination, examining themes of place, liberation, memory, and psychological space. She reflects on personal and collective histories and memories, while simultaneously mining through the complexity of the black experience. Adams' abstracted florals serve as an index for marking and reclaiming her black ancestral connection to land, embracing both personal and shared narratives while reflecting on the importance of the sites that have accumulated histories of social, cultural, and political life. Drawing connections to place and space, she responds to each mark intuitively while making both formal and narrative considerations. She renders layers of texture and color, alternating between abstracted and defined forms, composing multiple paintings within one. Employing her educational foundation as a social scientist, with a background in foreign relations, sociology, and cultural anthropology, she systematically engages in her work with precise critical analysis and a perceptive understanding of the complex fabric of social dynamics. Lindsay received her B.A. in International Studies: World Politics and Diplomacy and Latin and Iberian Studies from The University of Richmond. Lindsay has been the recipient of the New Artist Society Merit Award at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she is currently pursuing an MFA in Painting and Drawing, and she has had solo presentations at Eaton DC, Washington and Riverhill Art Residency, Upstate Art Weekend. Her works were recently exhibited at Baltimore Museum of Art; James Cohan Gallery, New York, NY; Alpha Arts Alliance, Brooklyn; Gavlak Gallery, Los Angeles; Allouche Gallery, New York. Her work is in the collection of the Baltimore Museum of Art and Northwestern Law School.

This episode was recorded during last November's LUGARES conference -- LAP's annual virtual conference where the theme was Caminando P'alante. As Deputy Assistant Secretary for Grant Programs, Claudia Monterrosa oversees affordable housing and community development programs, including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, the HOME Investment Partnerships program, the Housing Trust Fund, and CDBG Disaster Recovery funds, in addition to Department-wide energy and environmental policy. Claudia brings decades of non-profit and public sector experience incorporating social justice, grassroots organizing, and equity to her work at HUD. Previously, Ms. Monterrosa served as the Chief Housing Officer for the City of Los Angeles. In this capacity she oversaw the implementation of Measure HHH's $1.2 billion for the development of Permanent Supportive Housing and successfully secured over $1.6 billion for emergency rental assistance for COVID-impacted tenants. She served as the Public Policy & Research Director at the Los Angeles Housing and Community Investment Department (HCIDLA), where she managed a team that secured more than $800 million in new funding for affordable housing, energy efficiency programs, foreclosure prevention, and strategic planning and preservation initiatives. Claudia directly led efforts to secure the adoption and implementation of the City's inaugural Eviction Defense Program, including $10.5 million in funding for the first year and subsequently securing an additional $30 million to extend the program through 2024. In 2017, her efforts led to the creation of the City's first permanent local source of funding for affordable housing via the adoption of the Affordable Housing Linkage Fee. In that same year, she led the City's successful adoption of the Assessment of Fair Housing Plan under HUD's new Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule (AFFH).

This week Eoghan is joined by Bécquer Seguín to talk about his new book 'The Op-Ed Novel'. The book examines how many of Spain's most renowned writers over the last thirty years have combined novel writing with publishing regular op-ed columns in El País. As Almudena Grandes, Javier Cercas, Antonio Muñoz Molina, Fernando Aramburu and Javier Marías engaged in public debates about Spain's past and its contemporary ills across the opinion pages of the country's paper of record, their own literary work increasingly took on political themes - with controversies first stirred in El País running over into the pages of their novels. Bécquer Seguín is Assistant Professor of Iberian Studies at John Hopkins University and a regular contributor to The Nation magazine. The Podcast has grown so much in 2023 and we released 26 episodes on topics ranging from Spain's general election to the Civil War and on to Spanish cinema, Gaudi and anarchism and Al Ándalus.

Quim Monzó and Contemporary Catalan Culture (1975-2018): Cultural Normalization, Postmodernism and National Politics (Legenda 2021) analitza la multifacètica i interdisciplinària trajectòria de Quim Monzó com a autor, artista i intel·lectual públic, des de les seves primeres publicacions a la Barcelona contracultural dels 70 fins al seu estatus com a autor consagrat per sistema literari i el públic avui dia. El llibre aborda des de la novel·la L'udol del griso al caire de les clavegueres (1976), les vinyetes polítiques publicades a Canigó durant la Transició i altres creacions contraculturals de l'època fins a les traduccionsmonzonianes de l'anglès al català i les contribucions a premsa escrita, ràdio i televisió així com el seu perfil de Twitter. A més a més, s'hi ofereixen noves interpretacions de les obres literàries més conegudes de Monzó. Fent servir les eines teòriques dels Estudis Culturals, el llibre mostra com l'obra de Quim Monzó encapsula les principals tensions culturals, estètiques i polítiques que han definit la transició des del tardofranquisme a la Catalunya autonòmica i post-referèndum. Guillem Colom-Montero, autor del llibre Quim Monzó and Contemporary Catalan Culture(1975-2018). Cultural Normalization, Postmodernism and National Politics (Legenda 2021), és professor titular d'Estudis Hispànics a la Universitat de Glasgow. La seva investigació se centra en la literatura i cultura catalana contemporània així com en la relació entre turisme i cultura a l'àmbit hispànic. Guillem estudia les persistents relacions de poder colonial que determinen la cultura catalana contemporània en relació a dos eixos: l'Estat espanyol, per una banda, i els països del Nord europeu per l'altra. Ha publicat articles acadèmics a les revistes Bulletin of Hispanic Studies i Studies in Comics i en els mesos vinents es publicaran tres capítols que analitzen representacions literàries turisme a Mallorca. A més, Guillem ha publicat articles de divulgació a la revista Núvol i a Brave New Europe. També és membre del comitè editorial de la Journal of Catalan Studies i del comitè de la Modern HumanitiesResearch Association (MHRA). Entrevista realitzada per Esther Gimeno Ugalde, professora a la Universitat de Viena (Àustria), cofundadora de Pleibéricos i membre del Centro de Estudos Comparatistas(Universidade de Lisboa), on coordina el projecte IberTranslatio.

Auspiciada por el proyecto de investigación financiado Memorias de las masculinidades disidentes en España e Hispanoamérica, esta colección de ensayos aborda la representación de masculinidades disidentes (periféricas, heterodoxas, queer, LGBTIQ+) en el cine y la literatura del ámbito hispánico en el último cuarto del siglo xx y las dos primeras décadas del xxi. Las masculinidades no heteronormativas conocen en este período histórico una serie de procesos de reconstrucción estética, ética y política cuyo resultado es una extraña, exagerada y sin embargo provisional normalización de la disidencia genérico-afectiva. Más allá de los beneficios legales de la nueva normalidad, esta época se caracteriza por una intensa hipernormalización en el terreno discursivo: valores, estructuras y paradigmas que deberían proporcionarnos solidez y certidumbre resultan más provisionales y líquidos de lo que estaríamos dispuestos a aceptar. La incompleta normalización de la disidencia genérico-afectiva transita, hoy día, por un terreno difícil de cartografiar en el que el deber-ser (la teoría, la ley, los discursos sociales) no acaba de encajar con el ser y con la experiencia de vida que encontramos en los múltiples testimonios que encierran los relatos, literarios y cinematográficos, analizados en este libro. Alfredo Martínez Expósito es catedrático de Estudios Hispánicos en la Universidad de Melbourne, miembro de la Academia Australiana de Humanidades y miembro honorario del Madrid Institute for Advanced Study. Es autor de La poética de lo nuevo en el teatro de Gómez de la Serna (Universidad de Oviedo, 1994), Los escribas furiosos: configuraciones homoeróticas en la narrativa española (University Press of the South, 1998), Escrituras torcidas: ensayos de crítica queer (Laertes, 2004), Live Flesh: the Male Body in Contemporary Spanish Cinema (IB Tauris, 2007, con Santiago Fouz Hernández) y Cuestión de imagen: cine y Marca España (Academia del Hispanismo, 2015). Ha editado los volúmenes Gay and Lesbian Writing in the Hispanic World (Antípodas, 2000) y Repensar los Estudios Ibéricos desde la periferia (Ca' Foscari, 2019, con José Colmeiro).

Since the beginnings of African cinema, the realm of beauty on screen has been treated with suspicion by directors and critics alike. In Ethics and Aesthetics in Contemporary African Cinema: The Politics of Beauty (Bloomsbury, 2019), James S. Williams explores an exciting new generation of African directors, including Abderrahmane Sissako, Mahamat-Saleh Haroun, Fanta Régina Nacro, Alain Gomis, Newton I. Aduaka, Jean-Pierre Bekolo and Mati Diop, who have begun to reassess and embrace the concept of cinematic beauty by not reducing it to ideological critique or the old ideals of pan-Africanism. Locating the aesthetic within a range of critical fields - the rupturing of narrative spectacle and violence by montage, the archives of the everyday in the 'afropolis', the plurivocal mysteries of sound and language, male intimacy and desire, the borderzones of migration and transcultural drift - this study reveals the possibility for new, non-conceptual kinds of beauty in African cinema: abstract, material, migrant, erotic, convulsive, queer. Through close readings of key works such as Life on Earth (1998), The Night of Truth (2004), Bamako (2006), Daratt (Dry Season) (2006), A Screaming Man (2010), Tey (Today) (2012), The Pirogue (2012), Mille soleils (2013) and Timbuktu (2014), Williams argues that contemporary African filmmakers are proposing propitious, ethical forms of relationality and intersubjectivity. These stimulate new modes of cultural resistance and transformation that serve to redefine the transnational and the cosmopolitan as well as the very notion of the political in postcolonial art cinema. James S. Williams is Professor of Modern French Literature and Film at Royal Holloway, University of London, where he is also director of the Centre for Visual Cultures. This interview was conducted by Santiago Fouz-Hernandez, Professor in Film Studies and Iberian Studies at Durham University (UK). Santiago's main work is on masculinites and male bodies on film. His interests include contemporary Spanish and European cinemas, queer cinema, LGBTQ+ studies, popular culture, comics and popular music. Learn more about your ad choices.

Més de vint anys després de l'últim esforç per donar a conèixer als lectors portuguesos una antologia de poesia catalana, Resistir ao Tempo. Antologia de poesia catalã és un nou impuls per promocionar un univers ple de veus singulars. Des dels seus orígens fins als nostres dies, aquesta antologia ens ofereix un ampli ventall d'autors amb una poesia diversa i polifònica per descobrir. Dissenyada de la mà dels editors i traductors Rita Custódio, Sion Serra Lopes i Àlex Tarradellas, els lectors podran “comprovar que molts dels poemes tracten el pas del temps amb connotacions molt diferents. [...] Pot semblar utòpic, però, com deia Gabriel Celaya, ‘la poesia és un armada de futur'. Joan Brossa té un poema visual en què també defineix la poesia com una arma. I la millor arma per resistir el temps és la poesia. Que la pólvora no es quedi mai sense versos”. Resistir ao tempo és una antologia bilingüe de més de sis-centes pàgines, amb més de 200 poemes de 87 poetes diferents; una finestra oberta a la literatura catalana d'abans i d'avui. Hem parlat amb Àlex Tarradellas, traductor i co-editor de Resistir ao tempo. Antologia de Poesia Catalã, publicat per l'editora lisboeta Assírio & Alvim (2021). L'Àlex és llicenciat en Humanitats per la Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona), traductor de català, castellà i portuguès i autor de diversos llibres i guies de viatge sobre Portugal, com Lisboa. Acuarelas de viaje, en col·laboració amb el pintor Pablo Rubén López Sanz, i 101 lugares de Portugal sorprendentes, editats per Anaya Touring. Juntament amb Rita Custódio ha traduït al portuguès autors com Mercè Rodoreda, Josep Pla, Joan Margarit, Eva Baltasar, Najat El Hachmi, Xavier Bosch, Irene Vallejo, Antonio Muñoz Molina, Jesús Carrasco, Belén Gopegui, Valeria Luiselli, Marian Izaguirre, Julia Navarro i Cristina Rivera Garza, entre d'altres. El tàndem Custódio-Tarradellas també ha traduït del portuguès al castellà, escriptors com Luandino Vieira, Paulina Chiziane, Teixeira de Queirós i Boaventura de Sousa Santos. Entrevista realitzada per Esther Gimeno Ugalde, professora a la Universitat de Viena (Àustria), membre del Centro de Estudos Comparatistas (Universidade de Lisboa) i cofundadora de Pleibéricos. També és editora de la International Journal of Iberian Studies. Acaba de coeditar el volum Iberian and Translation Studies.

In this episode we're delighted to be joined by Martha Ackelsberg (Smith College, Massachusetts) to discuss her classic study of Mujeres Libres, 'Free Women of Spain,' on the 30th anniversary of its original publication. Martha's work has been hugely influential in the study of anarchism, gender and the Spanish Civil War, and has shaped the work of both Danny and Jim. We were thrilled that she could join us for this discussion, which covers the history of anarchist feminism in Spain, sexism within the movement, the problems of equating gender emancipation with fighting, and the lessons of the Mujeres Libres for today's radicals. You can find more about Martha's extensive work on these subjects here: smith.edu/academics/faculty/martha-ackelsberg In 2016 Danny and Jim were delighted to guest edit a special issue of International Journal of Iberian Studies on transnationalism and Spanish anarchism, featuring a brilliant article by Martha on the links between radical feminists in Spain and Argentina. The journal is available here, or you can get in touch with the show for access. ------------------------ The podcast music is Stealing Orchestra & Rafael Dionísio, 'Gente da minha terra (que me mete um nojo do caralho).'

The first episode of our new “Historias for BSPHS” collaboration with the Bulletin for Spanish and Portuguese Studies, in this roundtable three scholars studying Spain tell their stories of facing and overcoming the difficulties of doing research during the COVID-19 pandemic as part of the journal’s ongoing forum on Doing Iberian Studies in Times of Crisis. Sara J. Brenneis tells of finding new sources when the pandemic suddenly shut down Spain’s archives, James D. Fernández of confronting the cancellation of his exhibition and study abroad program and Charles Nicholas Saenz of finding new directions after not being able to travel to Spain. The guests also discuss what lessons the experience of navigating the shutdown gave them and suggest what scholars might learn about conducting research from the challenges of the current moment.

Ep. 230: In this episode, Alex speak with Professor G. Reginald Daniel, Ph.D. Professor Daniel is a Professor, Department of Sociology, University of California, Santa Barbara; Affiliated Faculty, Latin American and Iberian Studies, Black Studies, Chicana/o Studies, Asian American Studies, and History. Since 1989, he has taught “Betwixt and Between,” which is one of the first and longest-standing university courses to deal specifically with the question of multiracial identity comparing the U.S. with various parts of the world. He has published numerous articles and chapters that cover this topic. His chapters “Passers and Pluralists: Subverting the Racial Divide” and “Beyond Black and White: The New Multiracial Consciousness” appeared in Racially Mixed People in America (1992) edited by Maria P. P. Root, which was the first comprehensive examination of multiracial identity in the United States. His books entitled More Than Black? Multiracial Identity and the New Racial Order (2002) and Race and Multiraciality in Brazil and the United States: Converging Paths? (2006), and Machado de Assis: Multiracial Identity and the Brazilian Novelist (2012) are a culmination of much of his thinking on the relationship between social structure and racial formation—especially multiracial identities. He is also co-editor of Race and the Obama Phenomenon: The Vision of a More Perfect Multiracial Union (2014) to which he contributed a chapter titled “Race and Multiraciality: From Barack Obama to Trayvon Martin.” In addition, he is a co-founding editor and Editor in Chief of the newly launched Journal of Critical Mixed Race Studies (JCMRS). On June 16, 2012, he received the Loving Prize at the 5th Annual Mixed Roots Film and Literary Festival in Los Angeles. Established in 2008, the prize is a commemoration of the June 12, 1967 Loving v. Virginia decision that removed the last laws prohibiting racial intermarriage. It is awarded annually to outstanding artists, storytellers, and community leaders for inspirational dedication to celebrating and illuminating the mixed racial and cultural experience. National Public Radio’s “Talk of the Nation” interviewed him where he discussed his teaching on multiraciality and the significance of the Loving Prize. Finally, he is a former member of the advisory boards of AMEA (Association of MultiEthnic Americans), the Mixed Heritage Center of MAVIN Foundation, and Project RACE (Reclassify All Children Equally). These are among the most prominent organizations involved in bring about changes in the collection of official racial and ethnic data, as in the decennial census, which makes it possible for multiracial-identified individuals to acknowledge their various backgrounds. His own multiracial identity includes African, European, Asian, Arab, and Native American origins. For more on Professor Daniel, please see his bio and his curriculum vitae.

Zombifying a Nation: Race, Gender and the Haitian Loas on Screen (McFarland, 2016) dwells on the intersections of memory, history, and cultural production in both Africa and the African diaspora. The figure of the zombie that entered the popular imagination with the publication of William Seabrook's book The Magic Island (1929) during the American occupation of Haiti still holds cultural currency around the world. Zombifying a Nation: Race, Gender and the Haitian Loas on Screen calls for a rethinking of zombies in a sociopolitical context through the examination of several films, including White Zombie (1932), The Love Wanga (1935), I Walked with a Zombie (1943) and The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988). A 21st-century film from Haiti, Zombi candidat la presidence … ou les amours dun zombi, is also examined. A reading of Heading South (2005), a film about the female tourist industry in the Caribbean, explores zombification as a consumptive process driven by capitalism. Author Toni Pressley-Sanon holds a Ph.D. in African Languages and Literatures with a minor in Latin American, Caribbean, and Iberian Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She also holds an M.A. in Liberal Studies and Anthropology from the New School for Social Research and a B.A. in Comparative Literature with a minor in African-American Studies from Hamilton College. She is an assistant professor at Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti, Michigan. In addition to Zombifying a Nation: Race, Gender and the Haitian Loas on Screen, Pressley-Sanon has a forthcoming book titled Istwa across the Water: Haitian History, Memory, and the Cultural Imagination. The work reads the historical and contemporary relationship between Dahomey/Benin Republic, Kongo and Saint Domingue/Haiti dialectically; that is, as a “long conversation” that is facilitated by the ebb and flow of the ocean's waves. She argues that this relationship is anchored in memory and manifest through material culture on both sides of the Atlantic divide. James Stancil is an independent scholar, freelance journalist, and the President and CEO of Intellect U Well, Inc. a Houston-area non-profit dedicated to increasing the joy of reading and media literacy in young people.

Zombifying a Nation: Race, Gender and the Haitian Loas on Screen calls for a rethinking of zombies in a sociopolitical context through the examination of several films, including White Zombie (1932), The Love Wanga (1935), I Walked with a Zombie (1943) and The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988). A 21st-century film from Haiti, Zombi candidat la presidence … ou les amours dun zombi, is also examined. A reading of Heading South (2005), a film about the female tourist industry in the Caribbean, explores zombification as a consumptive process driven by capitalism. Author Toni Pressley-Sanon holds a Ph.D. in African Languages and Literatures with a minor in Latin American, Caribbean, and Iberian Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She also holds an M.A. in Liberal Studies and Anthropology from the New School for Social Research and a B.A. in Comparative Literature with a minor in African-American Studies from Hamilton College. She is an assistant professor at Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti, Michigan. In addition to Zombifying a Nation: Race, Gender and the Haitian Loas on Screen, Pressley-Sanon has a forthcoming book titled Istwa across the Water: Haitian History, Memory, and the Cultural Imagination. The work reads the historical and contemporary relationship between Dahomey/Benin Republic, Kongo and Saint Domingue/Haiti dialectically; that is, as a “long conversation” that is facilitated by the ebb and flow of the ocean’s waves. She argues that this relationship is anchored in memory and manifest through material culture on both sides of the Atlantic divide. James Stancil is an independent scholar, freelance journalist, and the President and CEO of Intellect U Well, Inc. a Houston-area non-profit dedicated to increasing the joy of reading and media literacy in young people.
