Comments

Borders and Imagined Spaces is a thematic exploration on the history of mapmaking in the Southwestern United States. The speakers examine how maps, intentionally and unintentionally, reveal social dynamics equally as much as geographic formations. Maria Lane and Sierra Ramirez also discuss an innovative collaboration between the University’s history and geography departments that highlights and reintegrates indigenous knowledge on historic national trail sites through interactive mapping techniques.

The panel features UNM professors Maria Lane, Dean of Graduate Studies and Professor in Geography; Katherine Massoth, Assistant Professor in History; and Sierra Ramirez, PhD student in History. Marcy Botwick, Borders Exhibit Curator and Zimmerman Librarian, also participates in the discussion.
