Américo Paredes: Mexican American Studies, the University, and Modernity - Lecture by José E. Limón


Date: Thursday March 30, 2023

Time: 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Location: Texas Union (UNB 2.102)

 

Please join the Center for Mexican American Studies for “Américo Paredes: Mexican American Studies, the University, and Modernity” a lecture by José E. Limón.

 

Based largely on José E. Limón's recollection of many conversations with Américo Paredes during the period 1968-1972, this talk is less of a lecture and more of a spoken essay, a contribution to an oral history. It explores the ambivalence and tension between Mr. Paredes' intellectual modernity and the founding and development of the Center for Mexican American Studies at UT-Austin at that moment in the University's own history.

 

Please share the attached flyer widely. 

 

Thank you!
