Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home, placemaking, labor, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa\u2019s grandmother who illegally crossed the US\/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist\u2019s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist, educator, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine\/x\/a\/o studies. Born and raised in Texas, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting, bead weaving, embroidery, jewelry, transparent film installations, painting, ceramics, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story, re-make, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx, Chicanx, Mexican, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania), Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas, TX).

Delgado", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Abstract :\r\nOver the past thirty years, Latin American censuses have introduced self-identification questions for people of African descent. After decades of demographic invisibility, most states in the region now enumerate Afrodescendent populations using several ethnoracial categories of Blackness. Census categories are crucial in estimating the demographic composition and ethnoracial inequality affecting these populations. However, few studies have examined the conditions that allowed for the heterogeneous diffusion of categories of Blackness in Latin America. This article analyzes Mexico\u2019s 2015 Intercensal Survey, the first official instrument to enumerate Black people in this country's history, to uncover the enabling conditions for this shift. Using a convergent mixed methods design, the analysis shows that the official enumeration of Blackness unfolded through an institutionally liminal space of classification struggles. While the category \u201cAfrodescendant\u201d was endorsed by internationally oriented state actors and ethnohistorical researchers, \u201cBlack\u201d gained legitimacy from activists focused on cultural politics and researchers mobilizing ethnographic knowledge, and \u201cAfromexican\u201d was supported by activists advocating for development politics and locally oriented state actors. This article advances a constitutive argument that helps explain under what conditions census politics emerge as an interstitial space of contention that challenges the routine exercise of the symbolic power of the state to enumerate its populations.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"125903-21856262@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/125903", "building_id":"1000150", "building_name":"LSA Building", "campus_maps_id":"87", "room":"4154", "location_name":"LSA Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Faculty","Graduate Students"], "website":"https:\/\/myumi.ch\/VG1Xq", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Sociology", "group_id":"3478", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/09\/event_125903_original-1.png" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21856262 } , "125447-21855125": { "datetime_modified":"20241003T063247", "datetime_start":"20240918T120000", "datetime_end":"20240918T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2024-09-18", "date_end":"2024-09-18", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Exploring Your Future: Summer Associate Program at the Institute for Defense Analyses", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Exploring Your Future: Summer Associate Program at the Institute for Defense Analyses", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Careers \/ Jobs", "event_type_id":"2", "description":"Please tune in on September 18th for our latest student-focused event \u2013 Exploring Your Future: Summer Associate Program at the Institute for Defense Analyses.\u00a0This month we\u2019ll be joined byfour panelists who started their research careers at IDA as summer interns!
