Celebrate the release of Making the Latino South: A History of Racial Formation, Professor Cecilia Márquez's book on the history of Latinos in the US South from 1940-2011.

Free parking will be provided in the lot at the corner of Anderson Street and Campus Drive.

RSVP is not required, but we would love to know if you plan to attend to help with our planning.
