I am glad to see that the introduction to our special issue has been published. In it, @thomasmareite.bsky.social and I seek to further historicize the category of “refugee.” Early historiography on this topic focused primarily on its modern definition as established by...

I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage. The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts. Follow along!

A vibrant, wide-angle photo of a colorful outdoor mural promoting the "Super Bowl LX Apple Music Halftime Show." The mural is painted on a long blue wall in a sunlit, tropical setting with real palm trees and bright pink bougainvillea flowers cascading over the top.

The artwork features a playful, surreal collage of cultural and football-themed elements:

    Central Text: The Apple Music logo in bold yellow and red 3D lettering is flanked by "SUPER BOWL LX" above and "HALFTIME SHOW" below.

    Iconic Imagery: Large illustrations of a golden trumpet, pink sunglasses, maracas, dominoes, and a cup of coffee with a musical note in the foam.

    Football Elements: Brown footballs are depicted growing on palm trees like coconuts and resting on the ground.

    Foreground: A young girl in a yellow dress walks along the sidewalk in front of the mural, passing a small goalpost illustration where a green parrot is perched.

The overall aesthetic is warm, festive, and celebrates a fusion of Latin-inspired culture and American football.

Cher•e•s ami•e•s, j’ai le plaisir de vous partager l’appel du colloque « MARITIMITÉ(S) CARAÏBE » que je coorganise avec Jean-Sébastien Guibert et Boris Lesueur ! Nous attendons vos propositions pour le 1er avril !

Nicolás’s article makes a major contribution to the study of political exile in newly independent Colombia during the 1820s. It asks who was labeled emigrados by republican authorities, with what concrete legal and political consequences.... 1/5
