"Mexican Woman in Video Games Starter Pack" Reddit meme posted in 2021.

A common theme that is often noted about Mexican women characters in video games is that developers often write them as “one-dimensional,” “reductive,” and with “racist caricatures" through their villainous roles and questionable moralities.

Visuals for research on The Tejana impact on Houston throughout 1950s to 1990s

The Tejana community has been a vital ingredient in the formation of Houston. Despite the constant changes in leadership, laws, and years of being in the shadows of the majority, the Tejanas persevered and organized their voices to advocate for their lives time and time again.  Through the lens of the Tejana community, the 1970s served as the pinnacle decade of radical change that led to equal treatment of the minority leading to the appreciation and insertion of Mexican culture in Houston. This Digital Project works as an aid for those interested in Houston or Tejana history to become accustomed to organization and work done by activist.

This digital project reflects the research paper written for Dr. Lilia Rosas' Tejana Cultural Studies course (WGS 340) at the University of Texas at Austin.

art by Carmen Lomas Garzas

Her artwork is astounding. Each piece of hers correctly captures the essence of community and healing found within Curanderismo.

Sharing the same title of La Curandera, piece one and two demonstrate an intimate gathering of family while the local healer pays a visit. There are many nuances in Garzas art here to note, as there is a fifteen year gap in the production of each piece, the color piece coming into fruition later on.

Piece one includes many artifacts of catholicism, for example a small alter with a painting of La Virgen de Guadalupe as well as multiple crosses in the home. This piece also opens the audience's eyes up to family and community dynamics, as it features each family member with a different role.

Piece two is smaller gathering of family members during a person's healing session. Here we see color, all over the room, maybe as a sign of Lomas ingenuity or simply a sign of the times. The inclusion of the child in this piece is contrasting Piece one directly, as it featured the child outside the home. There is a certain intimacy pictured between the healer and the sick, a look of love.

Finally, piece three is a different type of media by Garzas. Here she shows an ofrenda or offering altar, used by many religious folks in the community. An ofrenda is known for commemorating or giving praise to a deity, or showing care for a passed loved one. This is important to Curanderismo, as the spiritual aspect of the practice dictates a good standing with the spirits can impact your health.

Why Eva Longoria?

We went to the same university: Texas A&M Kingsville.

Our families are from the same area: South Texas.

We share the same maternal haplogroup: A2.

We have the same seasonal color pallet (exact same skin, eye, and hair color): Deep Autumn

And we have similar filmic interests: Latinas in Hollywood.

And I liked her clothing collection from The Limited and her lipstick collection from Revlon.

Do you know how rare it is to see a Tejana thriving so publicly? Especially one that isn’t white passing?

Elementary kids lined up outside Blackwell School, Marfa, Texas. The date of the picture taken is unknown, but it might've been taken anytime between 1909-1965.

Blackwell School is the former de facto segregated school for Mexican-American children in Marfa, Texas, that operated from 1909 until 1966. Although some alumni of Blackwell positively remember their experiences, some students recall being humiliated and discriminated against for their identity and punished for speaking Spanish anywhere in the school.
