2024 Sigma Delta Pi Lecture: "Unsettling Latinx Belonging in Turtle Island," by Professor Madelaine Cahuas (U of M-Twin Cities)December 4 at 6–7 p.m.

The Gustavus chapter of Sigma Delta Pi (National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society) would like to invite you to a talk by Professor Madelaine Cahuas (U of M), titled "Unsettling Latinx Belonging on Turtle Island." The event is free and open to the public—please share widely. Here is an abstract from the presenter.

"What does it mean to make home and belonging in a place built on racial injustice? This talk explores how differently racialized, Black, Indigenous and queer Latinx young people form relationships to place in Tkaronto (Toronto, Canada). In it demonstrate how Latinx people can voice distinct senses of place that unsettle how we think about and practice belonging. Indeed, Latinx people illustrate alternative forms of belonging grounded in relationships of care, reciprocity and solidarity across differences that work towards more socially just and decolonial futures."
