Yásnaya Aguilar & Carmen Díaz

Plataforma invites you to the conversation "Detours and Translations" with the writer and linguist Yásnaya Aguilar, who is part of the current exhibition "Ancestral Transmission", and the anthropologist Carmen Díaz Alba. During this talk they will discuss the translation of native languages ​​as a tool and opening of possibilities, the relationship of linguistics with the construction of the state/nation, as well as its fundamental relevance to transcend the linguistic limits imposed by cultural, social and political hegemonies. The talk will take place in the auditorium, second floor of Plataforma. We recommend that you arrive early to secure your seat. We look forward to seeing you!
