Open to all Yale and surrounding communities, the Nahuatl Working Group is hosting a special screening of “Mother’s Day in Cuetzalan: Panchita the Weaver” for Women’s History Month. The documentary offers an intimate look at the life of Panchita, a resilient and talented Nahua woman whose weaving skills sustain her family amidst challenging economic circumstances in Mexico’s Sierra Norte.
Please join us to celebrate the opening of “Street Talk”: Pamphlet Literature of the Nigerian Marketplace on view in the Hanke Gallery of Sterling Memorial Library.
Onitsha Market Literature—named after a city east of the Niger River—emerged in the early 1950s. The popular pamphlet style soon spread to other centers throughout the then British colony of Nigeria. These ephemeral publications circulated widely throughout the busy marketplace, and writers intended them to be both educating and entertaining for the common people.
