Telenovelas and Black Celebrity in Brazil
In this week's episode, guest Bruno Guaraná discusses his article "<a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/707685" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Taís Araújo: The Black Helena against Brazil's Whitening Television</a>," which traces key moments in the television career of one of Brazi's most popular television celebrities Taís Araújo, including the several times she has been slated as "the first black protagonist" on different television shows. Guaraná argues that, against Brazilian television's practices of whitening raced subjects and pushing forth a colorblind ideology, the construction of Araújo's star image has ultimately turned her into a popular symbol of black female resistance.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Digital Altars and Migrant Death in Mexico
In this week's episode, guest Xiomara Cervantes-Gómez discusses her article "<a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1470412921999456" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Where Blackness Dies: The Aesthetics of a Massacre and the Violence of Remembering</a>," which analyzes the digital altar created to commemorate the lives of 72 Central American migrants massacred in Mexico in 2010. Cervantes-Gómez builds on this analysis to interrogate the sensationalist depictions of migrant death, the affordances and limitations of digital media for attending to the divine, and, ultimately, the politics of blackness in the context of Mexico and the American continent.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
