Hispanic Heritage Month 2024Latinx and Hispanic Research at WSU

 

As part of the Hispanic Heritage month celebrations, our Interim Director Dr. Vilma Navarro-Daniels participated in a panel titled ‘Latinx/e and Hispanic Research and Cultural Production at WSU’, where she presented her work El Canto Nuevo or The Utopian Potential of Chilean Popular Song to Resist Dictatorial Violence (from 1974 onwards), based on her professional leave research conducted in Chile (Spring 2024).

Project within the fields of Latin American and Cultural Studies as well as Utopian Studies intended to produce a book-length manuscript on Canto Nuevo (New Song) —a Chilean musical genre characterized for its popular roots and its commitment to social change and social justice— as a utopian counter-discourse to the official narratives about national identity created during Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship.

You can watch the complete panel here.
