Talk – Mexican rock and resistance

On the 27th of April I’ll talk about Mexican rock and resistance, drawing from my experience as a radio producer and presenter in the 1980s for Radio Universidad de Guadalajara, as a rock journalist for several decades, lyricist for rock band Santa Sabina, and a member of the musicians, artists and students’ collectives that organised mass concerts in the 1990s in support of the indigenous communities that constituted the grassroots of the EZLN (National Zapatista Liberation Army), as well as fighting the misinformation that was then rampant about the war in the state of Chiapas.

The talk is being organised with UNAM-UK, Centre for Mexican Studies, in King’s College, London. Please join us!
