Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny used one of the largest media platforms in the United States, the Super Bowl Halftime Show, to spread a message of Pan-American unity. His performance was filled with symbols of Latin American heritage and pride. The event took place amid a backdrop of rising tensions between the U.S. and Latin America: in recent months, the U.S. government has sent ICE on a surge of arrests, staged an assault on Venezuela, and threatened to invade Cuba.
Expert in Latine Politics Anne Martinez will be contextualizing the Super Bowl Halftime Show within the history of U.S.-Latin American relations. What has caused the disorderly relationship between the U.S. and Latin America? And how can a celebration of community and culture unite nations?
