Save the date for a conversation organized by 2024-25 Miriam Jiménez Román Fellow Aurelis Troncoso. Their dissertation project focuses on the transnational experiences of women, femmes and LGBTQ+ practitioners of Santeria and Espiritismo in Puerto Rico and how practitioners negotiate race, nationality, queerness and transness within sacred spaces. Their work also extends to Cuba, Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

RSVP link and additional details are forthcoming.

The Miriam Jiménez Román Fellowship is made possible with support from The Mellon Foundation.
