Neilson Professor Lecture II: "Surviving Stories" By Miguel Angel Rosales, Neilson Professor 2022, filmmaker and anthropologist
TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 5 P.M. NEILSON BROWSING ROOM Miguel Angle Rosales,Spain’s profound African heritage and its oblivion is hard to recover from historic sources and archives, due to the layers of silence created by invisibility, negation, and racism that go back to the creation of those very sources. The imprints that remain alive as embodied memory in Spain’s dances, music, and rituals, particularly as related to what Flamenco is today, can help us understand this profound memory.
All are welcome.
