This roundtable conversation explores the cultural forms associated with migrations, placemaking, memorial practices and the local iterations of the Mexican celebration of the Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). This day – rooted in pre-Hispanic cultures – has seen diverse interpretations and manifestations since colonial times. Our panel kicks off the two-day community event that showcases Latinx "muertos" traditions in the Midwest and beyond. Contact: Paloma Martinez-Cruz (.2), Department of Spanish and Portuguese; Joan Flores-Villalobos (.1), Department of History.

Organized by the Migration, Mobility and Immobility Project of the Global Arts + Humanities Discovery Theme
