CHLT 068 CH -Rock en Las Americas

Institution: Pitzer

Description: In this course, we will explore the history, political economy, and cultural production of Latinx rock and roll in Las Americas. We will investigate the attitudes, dress, hairstyles, dance, and music of Latinx rockers in Latin America and the United States. Rock and roll is a transnational phenomenon whose different manifestations point to race, class, sexuality, and gender divisions in different nations and contexts. In this course, we will look closely at the changes in rock and how these changes were interpreted in Latin America and Latinos/as in the U.S., as well as the reaction of governments and social groups.
