Revisiting Iconic Texts and Authors (New Directions in Cuban Studies 2021)

The Cuban Heritage Collection (CHC) at the University of Miami Libraries and the Cuba Studies Program of the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies at Harvard University hosted the fourth New Directions in Cuban Studies conference on October 27–29, 2021.

The multidisciplinary conference disseminated the work of advanced graduate students and emerging scholars that survey the current research and findings on Cuba and its diaspora. 

The conference keynote address was delivered by Ada Ferrer, Julius Silver Professor of History and Latin American and Caribbean History at New York University.

The Goizueta Foundation generously funds this program with additional support from the Amigos of the Cuban Heritage Collection. New Directions in Cuban Studies was inaugurated in 2014 as a platform for critical thinking and the presentation of innovative scholarship in which students, junior scholars, and established academics learn from one another.
