Do we wonder why white descendants of apartheid would be seen as assimilating very easily into the United States over other groups, or nah.

The Spatial Politics of Everyday Life.
This Friday, 12pm-2pm (EST).

An online roundtable on three great recent books on everyday life and space in the Iberian context with their authors Megan Saltzman, Enric Bou and @susanlarson.bsky.social.

Moderated by yours truly.

An eltaller@kjcc event.

The Spatial Politics of Everyday Life

Please join us online on Friday, May 9th at 12:00PM for our fourth event of 2025, an online roundtable between Megan Saltzman, Enric Bou and Susan Larson. The event will take place online and will be moderated by Vicente Rubio-Pueyo. This event is free. Please register at this link to attend.

Megan Saltzman teaches at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts. Her research combines literary and visual arts with ethnographic fieldwork to expose how everyday public practices carve out autonomy and resistance from below. Megan has published on urban culture in Spain related to gentrification, spatial in/exclusion, undocumented immigration, waste, urban furniture, grassroots cultural centers, street vending, and “artivism.” These themes come together in Megan’s most recent publication, the book Public Everyday Space. Cultural Politics in Neoliberal Barcelona (2024).

Enric Bou is Emeritus Professor on Iberian Studies at Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia. He is specialized in the study of 20th century literature and has published on autobiography, the relationship between art and literature, visual poetry and on Salvador Dalí, among others. His latest publications include Sabor y Saber: Acerca de los Paisajes Alimentarios Ibéricos (2023), and Cartographies of Disappearance in Literature. From the Routine to the Extraordinary (2024).

Susan Larson is the Charles B. Qualia Endowed Professor of Romance Languages at Texas Tech University, Editor of the Romance Quarterly and co-editor (with Benjamin Fraser) of Palgrave Macmillan’s Urban Cultural Studies book series.

Vicente Rubio-Pueyo is Lecturer at Fordham University. His book Un país entre dos tiempos. Una década de experimentación política is about to be published by Lengua de Trapo/Circulo de Bellas Artes in Spain.

So relieved to see that Mellon will be providing emergency relief funding the US’s state and jurisdictional humanities councils.

If I learned one thing during my years at NEH, it was how crucial these organizations are to our public humanities infrastructure.

I know I'm late to the game but I've pulled together some reading recommendations for anyone who might be interested in learning more about Spanish as a language of the United States in the wake of the EO three weeks ago effectively saying that it isn't one. wp.nyu.edu/sjpearce/202...
