“Octubre23, una historia de estudiantes secundarios” es una búsqueda de desempolvar, de ponerle luz y nombres a esas fotos borrosas, tan lejanas como cercanas, de “los desaparecidos”. Es la necesidad de indagar en esas historias que nos acompañan a lo largo de una vida. Es revisar qué hicimos con esa llaga: la desaparición. Es el camino de identidad de un barrio, de un país. Es el patio de un colegio. Es la adolescencia y sus sueños y pesadillas.

She has started talking to a new boy online, Jean-Louis, and while they've never met before, she plans to invite him to her quince. But Miriam panics when she discovers her new boyfriend is black.

The Center for Latin American Studies (CLAS) at the University of Pittsburgh welcomes faculty and students to the 24th Latin American Social and Public Policy (LASPP) Conference on March 25-27, 2021. At the conference, researchers can present their scholarly work related to social and public policy in Latin America.

The Center for Latin American Studies at the University of Pittsburgh has celebrated Latin American and Caribbean cultures with a full-day festival on our Oakland campus since 1979. On Saturday, April 10, 2021, we will celebrate the 40th Annual Latin American & Caribbean Festival!

This reading group for educators explores literary texts from a global perspective. Content specialists present the work and its context, and together we brainstorm innovative pedagogical practices for incorporating the text and its themes into the curriculum. Sessions this year will take place virtually on Thursday evenings from 5-7:30 PM. Books and Act 48 credit are provided.
