The play, which was co-written by John Leguizamo, offers an ‘irreverent’ re-imagining of 16th century Spanish colonization. As such, it presented students the opportunity to examine a relevant popular culture product which overtly interrogates political aspects of hegemonic remembrance. Students were also provided with discounted tickets to the show and were offered extra-credit if they attended and wrote a thoughtful analysis of the piece, including its context and relation to course literature and concepts, and their individual experience engaging with the work and the overall theater-going practice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1600712343842-3X3XULG0V8F81F36RLPH/Screen+Shot+2020-09-20+at+10.12.19+PM.png Teaching Gallery A sample of course lectures from UCSD COMM 190 (Making ‘Americanness’ in Popular Culture) covering topics including: Cultural Memory, Speculative Futures and Afrofuturism, Social Construction of Space, Place-based Iconography, Popular Culture, and Critical Cartography. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1600713096188-W7FB18WM8OPNR4GJ3BU3/Gayatri+Field+Trip.jpg Teaching Gallery UCSD COMM 145 (History, Memory, and Popular Culture) students engage in an interactive workshop at UCSD’s Geisel Library. In the above photo, students watch with awe as an archivist shows the inner workings of a cassette tape in the library's digitization room.

This field trip, along with relevant course readings and lectures, helped ground the stakes of a previous long-standing battle between the university and tribal communities over the ownership and use of Indigenous remains and DNA. This experience also added relevance and applicability to course discussions regarding not just physical, but epistemological, forms of racial violence at the heart of the ongoing settler project. https://www.carolineimanicollins.com/news-media daily 0.75 2023-02-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1622090970142-65NQ8DURX5UR9O269AE2/Screen+Shot+2021-05-26+at+9.38.14+PM.png News Media - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1614745723032-I38CR3QEZ15UN0RU0HZ5/Screen+Shot+2021-03-02+at+8.27.59+PM.png News Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1614745341512-FKXJD4EQ46AF911BGMKT/Screen+Shot+2021-03-02+at+8.22.01+PM.png News Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1614745992366-W0VEUJCDJG9IJ31WC0M0/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-03-02%2Bat%2B8.32.08%2BPM.jpg News Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/174dc409-0586-42df-abe3-cb2da7a64a1d/Screen+Shot+2023-02-14+at+9.37.03+PM.png News Media - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.carolineimanicollins.com/podcasts daily 0.75 2024-02-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cf4ad86530d6c0001a131e5/1622084587908-Z2J0WNP17PHM85NLWHHN/elderberry.jpeg Podcasts Photo Credit: A-dae Romero Briones.
