Season 1: Mestizaje Contextualized: Encounters in the Early Modern Period
--------------------------------------
ABOUT THIS CHANNEL: The arts have played a central role in the solidification of our identities by anchoring our feelings to shifting colonies, empires, and nations. UNSETTLING JOURNEYS is dedicated to uncovering the histories behind Mexican, Latin American, and Latinx identities by examining the arts (paintings, prints, architecture, visual and material cultures) created before the invasion of Tenochtitlán, during the colonial period, around the waves of Latin American Independence from Europe, and into our contemporary world.
By dissecting everything from pyramids to movies, UNSETTLING JOURNEYS breaks down the complicated stories of our past. With fun and critical contextualization, we’ll untangle the messy history of art in the Americas, and the role it plays in our imaginations. Subscribe and join our journey to disrupt history, dismantle its myths, and deconstruct Latinx identities.
