Raicilla y mezcal
El nuestro es un país rico en diversidad agavera, lo que ha llevado a que la mayoría de nuestras bebidas tradicionales se produzcan a partir de alguna de las más de 100 especies endémicas de magueyes que crecen de manera natural a lo largo y ancho del país. Ello ha supuesto también que cada región ha adoptado particularidades locales no sólo en cómo nombra a sus destilados, sino en sus recetas y procesos de producción, lo que da cuenta de una gran diversidad cultural al preservar una manufactura artesanal. Para conocer más sobre la tradición de destilados que tenemos en Jalisco, recibimos en cabina a Jorge Antonio Dueñas Peña, especialista y productor de raicilla; y a Manuel Ruelas, especializado en el mezcal. En su compañía conoceremos más sobre la historia detrás de estas bebidas, las diferencias y las similitudes en sus procesos de producción, quiénes y dónde las producen y todo lo que como consumidores debemos saber de estos líquidos espirituosos.

Baron de Vastey and the Origins of Black Atlantic Humanism
Focusing on the influential life and works of the Haitian political writer and statesman, Baron de Vastey (1781-1820), in this book Marlene L. Daut examines the legacy of Vastey’s extensive writings as a form of what she calls black Atlantic humanism, a discourse devoted to attacking the enlightenment foundations of colonialism. Daut argues that Vastey, the most important secretary of Haiti’s King Henry Christophe, was a pioneer in a tradition of deconstructing colonial racism and colonial slavery that is much more closely associated with twentieth-century writers like W.E.B. Du Bois, Frantz Fanon, and Aimé Césaire. By expertly forging exciting new historical and theoretical connections among Vastey and these later twentieth-century writers, as well as eighteenth- and nineteenth-century black Atlantic authors, such as Phillis Wheatley, Olaudah Equiano, William Wells Brown, and Harriet Jacobs, Daut proves that any understanding of the genesis of Afro-diasporic thought must include Haiti’s Baron de Vastey.
'Mixed Race' Studies
Mixed race studies is one of the fastest growing, as well as one of the most important and controversial areas in the field of race and ethnic relations. Bringing together pioneering and controversial scholarship from both the social and the biological sciences, as well as the humanities, this reader charts the evolution of debates on 'race' and 'mixed race' from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century. The book is divided into three main sections: tracing the origins: miscegenation, moral degeneracy and genetics mapping contemporary and foundational discourses: 'mixed race', identities politics, and celebration debating definitions: multiraciality, census categories and critiques. This collection adds a new dimension to the growing body of literature on the topic and provides a comprehensive history of the origins and directions of 'mixed race' research as an intellectual movement. For students of anthropology, race and ethnicity, it is an invaluable resource for examining the complexities and paradoxes of 'racial' thinking across space, time and disciplines.
