Talk: Roberto D. Hernández presents “Decolonizing Marxism: Rethinking Indigenous Struggles & Spirituality”

The CSRC welcomes Dr. Roberto D. Hernández, of San Diego State University, who will discuss Chicano-Indigenous struggles. Marxism, being an important source and inspiration for Chicanos and other anti-colonial struggles, has been limited in the lived experiences, epistemologies and spiritualties of Chicano and Indigenous communities. This platica will provide a decolonial perspective to rethink Chicano-Indigenous struggles.

ROBERTO D. HERNANDEZ holds an MA and a PhD in ethnic studies from the University of California, Berkeley. He is currently an assistant professor in the Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies at San Diego State University. 

The event is co-sponsored by MEChA de UCLA and the CSRC.
