SUMMARY:La Canoa: Nuevomexicano Children's Literature: Bilingual and Bicultural in Both Past and Present
DESCRIPTION:2 pm to 4 pm \nJoin panelists Amy Córdova\, artist and illustrator; and Enrique L. Lamadrid\, Gabriel Meléndez\, Anna M. Nogar\, and Michael Trujillo\, from the University of New Mexico for a discussion on Nuevomexicano children’s literature. Recent studies of popular cultural production often center on forms intended for adults. This roundtable will consider a genre designed for children that involves adult interlocutors and mentors. The panelist discussion will center on bilingual\, culturally informed children’s books that treat topics relating to New Mexican history\, oral literature and tropes. \n \nAs Mexican American scholar Domino Perez has noted in her study of children’s literature depicting the legend of La Llorona\, such works exert powerful influence beyond the apparent simplicity of text and image.  She notes that “[stories about La Llorona] are now being used to empower and instill cultural pride as well as a sense of cultural history” (193)\, further commenting that “Through the use of La Llonorna folklore\, children are not only being prepared to read critically their own stories\, but also to read other stories about their culture” (179).  The panelists see the texts they have collectively created in this light. This discussion is aimed at articulating the unique positionality of a literature that serves a distinct role in forming future nuevomexicano readers and citizens\, for as Perez concludes\, “for marginalized people whose stories have been written over or displaced\, the fate of certain stories can be tied to the future of the people.” (179) \nChildren’s books to be addressed by the discussants include those to which they have contributed: \n\nAmadito and the Hero Children: Amadito y los Niños Héroes. Enrique Lamadrid\, essay by Michael Trujillo\, illustrated by Amy Córdova.\nJuan the Bear and the Water of Life: La Acequia de Juan del Oso. Enrique Lamadrid with Juan Estevan Arellano\, illustrated by by Amy Córdova.\nThe First Tortilla: A Bilingual Story. Rudolfo Anaya\, trans. Enrique Lamadrid\, illustrated by Amy Córdova.\nThe Santero’s Miracle: A Bilingual Story. Rudolfo Anaya\, trans. Enrique Lamadrid\, illustrated by Amy Córdova.\nThe Legend of Ponciano Gutiérrez and the Mountain Thieves. A. Gabriel Meléndez and the Paiz Family\, illustrated by Amy Córdova.\nSisters in Blue: Hermanas de azul.  Anna M. Nogar and Enrique Lamadrid\, illustrated by Amy Córdova.\n\nFree event\, open to the public.

SUMMARY:Reading & Booksigning: Celia López-Chávez\, Epics of Empire and Frontier
DESCRIPTION:2 pm to 4 pm \nJoin author Celia López-Chávez for a reading from her new book Epics of Empire and Frontier: Alonso de Ercilla and Gaspar de Villagrá as Spanish Colonial Chroniclers. \nEpics of Empire and Frontier reveals new ways of thinking about the themes of empire and frontier from the muse of the epic poems La Araucana by the Spanish nobleman Alonso de Ercilla and Historia de la Nueva México by Gaspar de Villagrá\, Mexican-born captain under Juan de Oñate in New Mexico\, both of which valorize the Spanish conquest of native peoples. Employing historical and literary analysis that goes from the global to the regional\, and from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries\, López-Chávez considers Ercilla and Villagrá not only as writers but as citizens and subjects of the powerful Spanish empire. \nThis is a free public event \n \nAlthough frontiers of conquest have always been central to the regional histories of the Americas\, this is the first work to approach the subject through epic poetry and the main events in the poets’ lives. López-Chávez also investigates the geographical spaces and landmarks where the conquests of Chile and New Mexico took place\, the natural landscape of each area as both the Spanish and the natives saw it\, and the characteristics of the expeditions in both regions\, with special attention to the violence of the invasions. In her discussion of law\, geography\, and frontier\, López-Chávez carries the poems’ firsthand testimony on the political\, cultural\, and social resistance of indigenous people into present-day debates about regional and national identity. \nCelia López-Chávez is a retired Associate Professor for the Honors College at the University of New Mexico and author of Con la cruz y con el dinero: Los Jesuitas del San Juan Colonial (With the Cross and with Money: Jesuits in Colonial San Juan).

SUMMARY:UNM Decolonizing Nature Conference
DESCRIPTION:8:30 am – 7 pm—Thursday & Friday\n8:30 am – 4 pm—Saturday \nThe University of New Mexico is hosting an interdisciplinary environmental justice public forum\, “Decolonizing Nature: Resistance\, Resilience\, Revitalization\,” which includes a four-day interdisciplinary conference from April 19 through April 22 at the NHCC; a companion exhibition at 516 ARTS from April 15 through April 29; a film screening at the UNM Art Museum on April 18; and a community event\, “Abrazos: A Community Celebration of Environmental Justice\,” at the Valle de Oro National Wildlife Refuge\, organized by conference partners Friends of the Valle de Oro National Wildlife Refuge and the Los Jardines Institute\, on Earth Day\, April 22. \nAll events are free and open to the public\, but registration is required. The program and registration information are available on the conference website: http://decolonizingnature.unm.edu. \n \nThe colonization of nature under capitalism is rooted in an ethos that views human beings as separate to and above nature—Earthmasters for whom the Planet is an inexhaustible reservoir of natural resources to be exploited. With profit as the prime motive\, the resources are denuded beyond sustainable limits for the disproportionate benefit of a wealthy few. Pollution and waste from this activity also is skewed in its impact\, in this case to the substantial detriment of poor and marginalized people\, indigenous communities\, and biotic life. Capital’s colonization of nature has brought us to our current moment of grave ecological peril—climate change\, Sixth Extinction\, and other human-caused environmental crises that cumulatively and rapidly degrade Earth’s life-sustaining ecological fabric. \nDecolonizing nature has thus become an urgent priority if we are to progress toward a just and sustainable Earth for all living beings. How do we resist further ecological devastation? How do we achieve resilience in times of stress? How do we revitalize affected ecological habitats and communities? The UNM forum will address these and related issues. \nThe conference features 33 speakers from the fields of art\, architecture\, humanities\, religion and science\, and grassroots activists from across the US as well as Mexico\, Canada and Ecuador. It is designed to foster discussions on integration of knowledge across disciplines\, practices across cultures\, and social-environmental movements across geographies. \nThe conference and the associated programming are sponsored by the Land Arts of the American West and Art & Ecology programs in the Department of Art at the University of New Mexico\, in partnership with the National Hispanic Cultural Center\, 516 ARTS\, Friends of the Valle de Oro National Wildlife Refuge\, Los Jardines Institute\, and the Santa Fe Art Institute. The project is coordinated by Subhankar Banerjee\, Lannan Chair and professor of Art & Ecology\, University of New Mexico. Organizers are grateful for the generous support provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, the Lannan Foundation\, the New Mexico Humanities Council\, and the University of New Mexico’s Office of the Vice President for Research\, Center for Regional Studies\, College of Fine Arts\, and Department of Art.

SUMMARY:La Canoa Legacy Talks:  Rebecca Blum Martinez\, Standing on Their Shoulders: A History of Bilingual Education in New Mexico
DESCRIPTION:2 pm to 4 pm \nJoin Rebecca Blum Martinez\, professor of bilingual and ESL education in the College of Education at the University of New Mexico\, for a talk on the history and present state of bilingual education in New Mexico. \nBlum Martinez has worked with and advocated for bilingual students and their families in New Mexico since 1975. Bilingual education has been a contentious educational reform since its inception in the late 1960s. New Mexico\, in 1969\, was one of the first states to embrace Spanish/English bilingual education. The struggle for Spanish language rights has been a constant preoccupation in the state since the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed in 1848. The talk will highlight the many initiatives undertaken in public education in New Mexico\, beginning in the 1960s\, to ensure children’s linguistic rights. \nThe La Canoa Legacy Series features talks by Hispanic/Latino academic and community researchers with long-standing and distinguished records of research and teaching about New Mexico and the region. Like la canoa—referring in New Mexican Spanish to several utilitarian objects used to receive and transport people and resources and thus provide a service to the community—these talks are meant to serve the community by presenting new or overlooked information about our region to interested audiences. We want them to transport us to new understandings of our region and its rich cultural and historical inheritance\, and to move the conversation back and forth in rich dialogue between presenters and audience members.\nFree public event

SUMMARY:Reading & Booksigning: A. Gabriel Meléndez\, The Book of Archives
DESCRIPTION:2 pm to 4 pm \nJoin author A. Gabriel Meléndez for a reading from his new book The Book of Archives and Other Stories from the Mora Valley\, New Mexico. \nThe Book of Archives tells the story of New Mexico’s Mora Valley\, located in the shadow of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains\, through the ghosts of history it harbors: troubadours and soldiers\, Plains Indians and settlers\, families fleeing and finding home. There\, more than a century ago\, villagers collect scraps of paper documenting the valley’s history and their identity—military records\, travelers’ diaries\, newspaper articles\, poetry\, and more—and bind them into a leather portfolio known as “The Book of Archives.” When a bomb blast during the Mexican-American War scatters the book’s contents to the wind\, the memory of the accounts lives on instead in the minds of Mora residents. Poets and storytellers pass down the valley’s traditions into the twentieth century\, from one generation to the next.\nFree public event \n \nA. Gabriel Meléndez is a Professor of American Studies at the University of New Mexico\, the recently appointed Director of UNM’s Center for Regional Studies\, and the author of several books\, including Spanish-Language Newspapers in New Mexico\, 1834–1958 and Hidden Chicano Cinema: Film Dramas in the Borderlands. A native of Mora with el don de la palabra\, the divine gift of words\, Meléndez mines historical sources and his own imagination to reconstruct the valley’s story\, first in English and then in Spanish\, stringing together humorous\, tragic\, and quotidian vignettes about historical events and unlikely occurrences to create a vivid portrait of Mora\, both in cultural memory and in present reality.

SUMMARY:La Canoa: New Mexicans and the Battle of Bataan
DESCRIPTION:2 pm \nJoin Margaret Garcia for a presentation and excerpts from her book Tell Me Another War Story\, chronicling the history of the New Mexico National Guard 200th Coast Artillery\, their valiant stand on Bataan in the Philippines\, and their reluctant surrender on April 9th 1942\, followed by the infamous Bataan Death March and status as POWs.  She will also talk about her father\, Evans Garcia’s experiences growing up in southern New Mexico\, in the battle and  prison camp\, and how he and his “buddies” stayed together after coming home\, serving their fellow veterans and doing all they could to keep the Bataan story alive.\nThis is a free event open to the public \n \nMargaret Garcia was born in Santa Fe\, New Mexico\, after her father came home from World War II.  Growing up\, she heard him and his veteran buddies telling their war stories as they gathered in the family kitchen\, but she never really understood the importance.  When Margaret was ten years old\, her parents divorced\, and she moved to Albuquerque and stayed close to her father over the years. \nMargaret graduated from the University of New Mexico; her father was a NMSU Aggie\, and they carried on a fun and spirited rivalry for decades.  Margaret took notes on anything she could when her father started telling war stories at dinner or at veteran events.  She promised him she would write his story\, fulfilling his request that she do everything she could so people would remember Bataan.  Tell Me Another War Story was published in April\, 2016. \nThe La Canoa Legacy Series features talks by Hispanic/Latino academic and community researchers with long-standing and distinguished records of research and teaching about New Mexico and the region.

DESCRIPTION:6 pm to 8 pm \nJoin author Robert Con Davis-Undiano for a reading from his recently released book\, Mestizos Come Home! Making and Claiming Mexican American Identity. \nDavis-Undiano’s landmark book details the profound ways in which Mexican Americans have contributed to U.S. culture since the 1960s. It addresses the need for Mexican Americans and Latinos to stop apologizing for being in the U.S.\, as well as the need for mainstream culture to stop making them the “enemy.” The intent of the work is to encourage Latinos to take pride in what they have accomplished already\, and to help others to be more understanding of what Mexican Americans and other Latinos are continuing to try to accomplish. \nRobert Con Davis-Undiano is a Mexican American and a professor/administrator at the University of Oklahoma.\nFree public event

SUMMARY:Reading & Booksigning: Jonathan Marcantoni\, Kings of 7th Avenue and Tristiana
DESCRIPTION:2 pm to 4 pm \nJoin author Jonathan Marcantoni\, who will be traveling to Albuquerque from Colorado\, for an interactive reading event\, drawing from the material in his books Kings of 7th Avenue and Tristiana. \nKings of 7th Avenue takes an unflinching look at Tampa’s multi-ethnic communities to show how the roots of misogyny and abuse have grown so deep that they have become tradition\, tracing the meteoric rise of one couple and the violent fall of another against the backdrop of Tampa’s infamous Ybor City club district. Tristiana\, Marcantoni’s first Spanish-language novel\, explores a beautiful and troubled land where a group of men and women debate between the playful comfort of the world of ideas and the cruel reality of political violence. The epic of these “Tristianos\,” embodied in paintings and murals—transcends the lines connecting the struggles of the past and the dreams of a free future.\nFree public event
