On this episode, Yvette interviews Afro-Salvadoreña Danny Parada about her research into her own family's history and surrounding anti-Blackness in El Salvador generally. They discuss the ways in which anti-Blackness has shown up in government policies surveilling and criminalizing MS-13 gang members, the historical efforts of the nation-state to erasure the presence of Afro-descendientes in El Salvador, and how Danny's prior research into academic outcomes of "Black and Latinx" students inspired her project re: Afro-Salvadoran history.
