Originating Calendar: Campus Humanities Calendar; Angelica Waner, assistant professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese argues that Zapotec literary magazines published in Mexico City and Oaxaca across the 20th century can be read as sites of autonomy for Isthmus Zapotec intellectuals. Her talk will then connect these magazines to preliminary research on zines published in California by Oaxacan youth and students, exploring the thematic connections that cross borders and time.
