SUMMARY:Book Reading and Signing: Jaima Chevalier and her Book "Fringe"
DESCRIPTION:6:30 pm \nJaima Chevalier’s book Fringe is a tribute to flamenco legend María Benitez and includes almost 200 rare and exclusive images from locally famous to world-renowned photographers\, all showcasing Benítez’s central role in dance history. Beníitez is an iconic figure in American flamenco. Her riveting story begins with the complexity of her mixed Native American and Puerto Rican heritage followed by her extraordinary journey as a young woman leaving her home on the outskirts of Taos Pueblo to study flamenco in Spain. From the inherent irony of her identity as a Native American woman striving to master the art of a culture that had colonized the Southwestern United States\, she grew into an artist driven to forge her own way in the world\, starting a business\, \, a non-profit institution\, a school\, and a professional touring company. Her illustrious career\, from appearances in film and television to stages across the world\, is an inspiration to artists\, students of history\, and seekers of core human truths. Her ability to overcome both racial and gender discrimination made her equally comfortable on the Metropolitan Opera stage as well as dancing around a gypsy campfire–all coalescing to make her story one that dances straight into the heart of what it means to be an American original. \nJaima Chevalier\, a Santa Fe native\, is the author of five books including La Conquistadora: Unveiling the History of Santa Fe’s Six Hundred Year Old Religious Icon and Nativo (with Oliver Galvan-De La Cruz). Her documentary films include Veiled Lightning/Native Voltage (director) and El Corazon de Santa Fe (Producer). \nJoin us in the Salon Ortega of the historic History and Literary Arts Building on the NHCC Campus. \nThis event is free and open to the public

SUMMARY:Book Reading and Signing: Norma Elia Cantú\, Cabañuelas
DESCRIPTION:2 pm \nNorma Elia Cantú will read from her new novel\, Cabañuelas (University of New Mexico Press\, 2019)\, the successor to her award-winning Canícula: Snapshots of a Girlhood en la Frontera\, which chronicles her childhood experiences on the border. Nena leaves Laredo\, Texas\, and moves to Madrid\, Spain\, to research the historical roots of traditional fiestas in Laredo. Immersing herself in post-Franco Spain and its rich history\, its food\, music\, and fiestas\, Nena finds herself falling for Paco\, a Spaniard. Nena’s research and experiences teach her about who she is\, where she comes from\, and what is important to her. As her work comes to a close\, Nena must decide where she can best be true to her entire self: in Spain with Paco or in Laredo\, her home\, where her job and family await her return. After reading\, Cantú will talk about the craft of writing a novel—in celebration of National Novel Writing Month (November). \nThis event is free and open to the public \nPresented in conjunction with the University of New Mexico Press

SUMMARY:La Canoa - Giving Baque: On Hemispheric Indigeneities and the Southern Border of New Mexico
DESCRIPTION:2 pm – 4 pm \nBuilding on and departing from the work of interethnic thought-leaders in New Mexico\, Dr. Gregorio Gonzales will consider how competing logics of settler-statecraft and Native American nationhood operate in a place of both Native- and nuevomexicanx-led struggles for political autonomy and religious liberty. The current humanitarian crisis along New Mexico’s southern border demonstrates the urgency of Indigenous transnational existences as they transit and transgress the political integrities of settlerstates and tribal nations alike. Dr. Gonzales will discuss the significance of New Mexico in building bridges of critical understanding and alliance inside this vital thoroughfare between Native America and Latin America. \nThis is a FREE event OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. \n \nGregorio Gonzales is Genízaro and Comanche from the borderlands of Comanchería and Genízaro country in northern New Mexico. He is currently the 2019-2020 Riley Scholar-in-Residence in Anthropology and Southwest Studies at Colorado College. Earning his Ph.D. from The University of Texas at Austin in 2017\, Dr. Gonzales’s writings have appeared in the New Mexico Magazine\, Peace Review\, and Red Ink\, among others. As a community-engaged scholar and relative\, Dr. Gonzales remains involved with the Albuquerque-based urban Indian nonprofit\, Americans for Indian Opportunity\, and continues his youth development work this fall with relatives in the Taos and Rio Chama valleys.

Inspired by Neruda\, Mario’s poetic voice continues to take wing as he expresses the struggles of his fellow working-class villagers. A firm friendship develops\, and the postman is forever a changed man. The sounds of the Mediterranean come alive in Catán’s stunningly beautiful\, Puccini-esque score – a story of love in its many forms\, set against a backdrop of conflicting political and spiritual ideologies. Based on the novel “Ardiente Paciencia” by Antonio Skármeta and the film by Michael Radford. Sung in Spanish with English supertitles.”

SUMMARY:US Postal Service Release of Our Lady of Guápulo Stamp
DESCRIPTION:9:30 am (MTS)\nA virtual first day of issue ceremony held on the Postal Service’s Facebook and Twitter pages:\nusps.com/guapulo\, facebook.com/USPS\, and twitter.com/USPS \nThe United States Postal Service is partnering with the National Hispanic Cultural Center (NHCC) on the release of the Our Lady of Guápulo Christmas forever stamp. \nThe event will include remarks from Postal Service Vice President for Retail and Post Office Operations Angela Curtis and NHCC Art Museum and Visual Arts Program Director and Chief Curator Dr. Tey Marianna Nunn\, and entertainment will be provided by NHCC History and Literary Arts Program Director Valerie Martinez and the Harlem School of the Arts. \n \nDesigned by Greg Breeding\, the stamp features a detail of “Our Lady of Guápulo\,” an 18th-century oil painting by an unknown artist in Cuzco\, Peru\, from the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Enrobed in a pyramidal gown speckled with jewels and holding a scepter woven with roses and leaves\, a crowned Virgin Mary looks down at a similarly adorned Christ child in her left arm. A red rosary ropes across the center of her dress and down to her right. \nBetween the 16th and 18th centuries\, European painters worked with indigenous artists in and around Cuzco. The Europeans trained local artists in styles and forms that dominated their home countries at the end of the Renaissance period and during the Baroque era. \nOur Lady of Guápulo is a local variant of the Virgin of Guadalupe in Extremadura\, Spain. The image venerated as Our Lady of Guápulo originated as a sculpture\, commissioned in Quito\, Ecuador\, in 1584 and transferred to a chapel in the nearby village of Guápulo in 1587.

SUMMARY:Tertulia Histórica Albuquerque: Famous Suffragists and Hidden Figures
DESCRIPTION:2 pm (MTS)\nLive via Zoom \nRegister in advance for this meeting HERE. \nThe campaign for woman suffrage in New Mexico is rich and deep. The struggle took 46 years\, from 1874 to 1920.

SUMMARY:Virtual Reading and Discussion: Sergio Troncoso\, A Peculiar Kind of Immigrant’s Son
DESCRIPTION:2 pm (MTS) \nRSVP for this online event here. \nVirtual Reading and Discussion: Sergio Troncoso\, A Peculiar Kind of Immigrant’s Son (Cinco Punto Press\, 2019) \nPresented by the National Hispanic Cultural Center in collaboration with Bookworks. How does a Mexican-American\, the son of poor immigrants\, leave his border home and move to the heart of gringo America? How does he adapt to the worlds of wealth\, elite universities\, the rush and power of New York City? How does he make peace with a stern old-fashioned father who has only known hard field labor his whole life? With echoes of Dreiser’s American Tragedy and Fitzgerald’s Gatsby\, Troncoso tells his luminous stories through the lens of an exile adrift in the 21st century\, his characters suffering from the loss of culture and language\, the loss of roots and home as they adapt to the glittering promises of new worlds which ultimately seem so empty. A Peculiar Kind of Immigrant’s Son is the recipient of a Silver Award for Multicultural Adult Fiction from Foreword Reviews Book of the Year Awards\, and a Best of Texas 2019 by Lone Star Literary Life. \n \nSergio Troncoso is the author of The Last Tortilla and Other Stories and Crossing Borders: Personal Essays\, and the novels The Nature of Truth and From This Wicked Patch of Dust. He has taught at the Yale Writers’ Workshop for many years. A Fulbright scholar and winner of numerous literary awards\, Troncoso was inducted into the Hispanic Scholarship Fund’s Alumni Hall of Fame and the Texas Institute of Letters. He was born in El Paso\, Texas\, and attended Harvard College and Yale University\, where he earned graduate degrees in international relations and philosophy.

SUMMARY:Tertulia Histórica Albuquerque: Illuminating New Mexico: A History of Luminarias and Farolitos
DESCRIPTION:2 pm (MST)\nLive via Zoom \nRegister in advance for this meeting HERE. \n\nState Historian Rob Martínez examines the fascinating origins of these uniquely New Mexican cultural expressions. Before there was a Christmas tree\, mistletoe\, egg nog or Santa Claus\, there were luminarias and farolitos lighting the dark paths for ancient New Mexicans\, commemorating that long ago tradition of High Mass at midnight. Like most New Mexican traditions\, these lights\, like Las Posadas\, reach back deep into a rich Catholic tradition that is a blend of Spanish\, Puebloan\, Mexican\, and American influences that are still vibrant today. Add the contributions of Asians from places like China and you have a very unique New Mexico religious expression that illuminates New Mexico like no other tradition. State Historian Rob Martínez takes us on a journey to discover where these sacred lights came from. \nFree\, Registration Required \n\n \nState Historian Rob Martínez is a native New Mexican from Albuquerque. A graduate of the University of New Mexico with an M.A. in Latin American history\, with an emphasis on New Mexico history.
