The Mexican War of Independence & US History: Tearing Down American Exceptionalism
A lecture by Paul Ortiz exploring the centrality of the Mexican War of Independence to American history, with an emphasis on African American and Latinx narratives to reimagine that history.
This event was co-sponsored by the Center for the Humanities at UW-Madison.
Paul Ortiz is Associate Professor of History and the Director of the award-winning Samuel Proctor Oral History Program at the University of Florida. His publications include the Emancipation Betrayed, a history of the Black Freedom struggle in Florida, and the co-edited volume, Remembering Jim Crow: African Americans Tell About Life in the Jim Crow South, which recently went into its 4th printing. His forthcoming monograph is titled: Our Separate Struggles Are Really One: African American and Latino Histories. He is also co-author (with William H. Chafe) of the forthcoming book, Behind the Veil: African Americans in the Age of Segregation, 1895-1965.
