https://www.cctnewmexico.org/projects/ These cuadernos were created by Natasha Vasquez and Lily Padilla, students at the NMHU Media Arts and Technology program, and interns for the Manitos Community Memory Project. Both Natasha and Lily will be available to conduct classroom programs to discuss how they approached interpreting the archival research and creating these cuadernos.
