We are happy to announce our new lecture series Conocimiento Xicanx in collaboration with the UTEP Chicano Studies department, happening every last Saturday of the month at the MACC.

Rooted in the epistemology of Borderland and Chicanx thought, this series creates a space for UTEP students and guest speakers to share their research and engage our community in conversations about history, culture, art, identity, and more.
....

For our first series we present: Estilo Estrellito presented by UTEP Chicano Studies undergraduate PoloTeo. In this lecture the community will have an opportunity to learn about the origin of the Zoot Suit in El Paso as well as the propaganda and portrayal of Pachucos in popular culture.

Date: August 29th
Time: 1-2PM
Registration: No registration required
Location: MACC Auditorium
