Digital Pop-Up: Latin@ Mobility in California History
Through the practices of blogging, digital curation, and primary historical research, we combined traditional historical methods with new media to ask how Latino/a mobility--as practiced, policed, and perceived--has intersected with race, gender, and class to produce varying life experiences in California and beyond. You are invited to tour our digital exhibit, Latina and Latino Mobility in 20th Century California, and visit images from our multimedia Pop-Up installation.
The open-air installation was based on our web exhibit. Using Latino/a histories of migration as its foundation, the exhibit explored the ways emergent technologies change how research is done and who it is done for. Audience members were asked to leave feedback through a variety of mediums, including Twitter at #CALatino. An archive of these tweets was created through Storify. A full album can be viewed on Flickr at Digital Pop-Up!
