The era of refugees and migrants, encompassing most of the 20th and 21st centuries, is characterized by displaced and transient human masses. They come crowded in boats, trains, trucks, cars, on foot, or even swimming through bodies of water. Some travel alone, while others travel with their families, or in groups. This is an experience few would have chosen, but due to forces beyond their control—poverty, repression, war—they have become migrants, refugees, or exiles. Through the lens of contemporary Mexican theater, the journeys these migrants engage as they search for a better life are presented in plays written by Mexican dramatists such as Hugo Salcedo, Victor Hugo Rascón Banda, Angel Norzagaray, or Manuel Talavera Trejo. Their plays depict thousands of anonymous actors in heroic, treacherous, and tragic Journeys across some of the most unwelcoming topography between Mexico and the United States.Presentation open to all.Speaker: Iani del Rosario Moreno (Associate Professor of Spanish and Latin American Studies, Suffolk University) Co-sponsored by: Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, Division of Arts and Humanities, Department of Theater, the W. M. Keck Center for Language Study, and Africana and Latin American Studies

National Poetry Month, launched by the Academy of American Poets in 1996, is an annual celebration in April that aims to highlight the importance of poetry and poets in American culture, encouraging people to read, write, and share poetry.The University Libraries, in collaboration with The Upstate Institute and the Adirondack Center for Writing, will be circulating a poetry machine throughout the Village of Hamilton in April.Pay attention the next time you’re at Case-Geyer, Flour & Salt, MOMs, or the Hamilton Public Library. You might encounter the ACW’s Poetry Machine.The Poetry Machine is an old capsule machine, the kind you might spend two quarters to get a bouncy ball, sticky hand, or small plastic alien from in the vestibule of a convenience store. With our machine, you can get your very own poem (for free—no quarters necessary).Inside the Poetry Machine are 10 different poems. Each one features a unique style of poetry, including haiku, cento, epistolary, list, ode, ekphrasis, prose poem, how-to, erasure, and cut-up.If you want to "check out" more poetry, visit the poetry display on the third floor of Case-Geyer.
