Abstract
Students from the U.S. Latina/o/x Program here at Iowa State will share excerpts from different episodes of their class-created podcast titled “IS-tú” (created as part of an assigned group project from USLS 211: Introduction to Latinx Studies). Students will not only share clips from their projects, but will also comment on the decision behind their episode’s guiding questions and overall production. The podcast “IS-tú” explores the Latinx community both at Iowa State and in Ames and surrounding areas and responds to social, cultural, economic, artistic and educational discourses. The student hosted and produced podcasts all interview campus and/or community members and focus on topics ranging from Latinx business owners in Ames, Latinx student organizations at ISU, Latinx-inspired eating options, and more.
