We have a special treat for you today - we get to listen in on a panel from the conference Old Women, Race, and Power recorded at the Huntington Library in Pasadena CA.. The panel, \"Challenging Colonial Imagery: Indigenous Centenarians and Gender in California,” explores the way old age and race intersected in ideas about Indigenous Californians, the California missions, and the Spanish fantasy past of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. https://www.huntington.org/event/old-women-race-and-power
The panel includes scholars
The excellent news for listeners is that there will be no ads today per the Huntington’s policies of not monetizing the content. But the Huntington does not endorse the podcast and that the opinions expressed in the episode are those of the speakers and not the Huntington.
