SUMMARY:Ixil Maya Resistance against Megaprojects in Cotzal\, Guatemala
DESCRIPTION:Join us to hear from Dr. Giovanni Batz (UC President’s Postdoctoral Fellow\, UC Davis) about “Ixil Maya Resistance against Megaprojects in Cotzal\, Guatemala” \n\nAmong the Ixil Maya of Guatemala\, the arrival of megaprojects is referred to as the “new invasion”. This presentation examines a movement in Cotzal\, Guatemala against the construction of the Palo Viejo hydroelectric plant built by the Italian company Enel on the finca San Francisco from 2008-2012. The struggle was characterized by peaceful resistance\, a four-month blockade\, and the arrival of the military. I argue that the arrival of megaprojects\, such as Palo Viejo\, continues the history of a colonial logic of extraction\, and is an extension of the historical tensions between the Indigenous Peoples\, the fincas\, and the Guatemalan state.\n\nCo-sponsored by the Global Studies Department\, Anthropology Department\, Latin American and Iberian Studies\, and Program\, and American Indian and Indigenous Collective.\n\nJoin us on Zoom: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/87106420611

SUMMARY:Lo propio es así: Raza y matiz racial en la República Dominicana
DESCRIPTION:“Lo propio es así: Raza y matiz racial en la República Dominicana” \n\nSeis siglos de historia y de legados transatlánticos han dado forma a un entorno racial complejo en la República Dominicana y con el tiempo las categorías raciales dominicanas han generado tanto interés académico como controversia social. En esta presentación\, la Dra. Wheeler\, en una presentación de 20 minutos hablará de su investigación sobre el significado y los límites de los términos que denotan raza y matiz racial en la República Dominicana y centra el lenguaje en la conversación sobre cómo se entiende la raza en este contexto. Le seguirán 10 minutos de preguntas. El evento concluye  a las 11:30am\n\nTuesday\, 27 October\, 2020 – 11:00-11:30 – https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/83696866553\n\nEvent co-sponsored by LAIS.
