Indigenous women in the Andes cultivate embodied relationships with their natural, social, and spiritual territories, where humans and the more-than-human collaborate as kin. Carmen Valdivia, assistant professor of Spanish, will discuss how this relationality shapes political struggle, everyday survivance, and joy as well as the ways they see, use, and produce media. She will examine Quechua content producers Solischa and Alessandra Yupanqui, who adapt media technologies to foreground ancestral knowledge and science for new Indigenous generations. This event is part of the Woven Together series and co-sponsored by the Hanson Center and the Indigenous Studies program. 4:15-5:30 p.m. Tues., March 10 • Simon Center for Economics and Business, Room 300 • MORE
