UNSETTLING JOURNEYS
est. 2019
Unsettling Journeys is an educational YouTube channel dedicated to uncovering the histories that have shaped Mexican, Latin American, and Latinx identities by examining the arts, architecture and visual and material cultures (think paintings, posters, calendars, tshirts, and tote bags).
The arts created before the invasion of Tenochtitlán, during the colonial period, around the waves of Independence, and into our contemporary world have played a central role in solidifying of our identities—mainly by anchoring our feelings to shifting colonies, empires, and nations. We break down the complicated stories of our past by looking at everything from pyramids to movies to untangle the messy history of art in the Americas and the role it plays in our imaginations.
Subscribe and join our journey to disrupt history, dismantle its myths, and deconstruct Latinx identities.
