LASA2019

In May 2019, Charlotte attended the Latin American Studies Association Congress in Boston. This year she was Track Co-Chair for the Film, Performance and Culture Track, a fascinating insight into the different kinds of research taking place in the field of Latin American film and expressive cultures. During the Congress, she participated in a roundtable discussion ‘Whose América? Whose Latin? Interrupting Discourses of Citizenship and Belonging through Film, Performance and Mobile Culture’, and delivered a paper ‘Confounding expectations? Indigenous filmmaking, language politics and the (re)constitution of Latin American Film’. You can access the programme for the conference here: https://convention2.allacademic.com/one/lasa/lasa19/
