I agree with Lily in that I have never heard of this before but am really excited to see how your research turns out. I think from an American perspective we often only hear about Cuba in terms of international […]

This is really interesting! I definitely see a connection with art history (I’m not sure if you are an art history major/minor) so there’s a possibility to make it a multi-disciplinary project. I’m interested to […]

This is a very interesting topic! However, your research topic seeks to answer two separate questions and I’m wondering if that might complicate your approach toward completing your research. Also, the second […]

This is such a cool topic. When I was in Edinburgh, I saw this song sung by a large group down the Royal Mile. Just goes to show how global things can become with social media. Since this is happening in the […]

Wow! I did not know people were placed in labor camps, which kind of proves the importance of this research. I think people have been so concerned with the politics of Cuba without looking into the social […]

Super good! I think this is really important, because it can inspire and connect to women of today’s modern Latin America. Are you focusing on one area or just all of LA?
