- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 07 Mar, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Sat, 07 Mar, 2026 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Associate Professor and author Iván Eusebio Aguirre Darancou will talk about their book Consuming Citizens: Countercultural Bodies in Twentieth-Century Mexico at Cellar Door Bookstore on Saturday, March 7th at 4:00pm.

Consuming Citizens offers a fresh conception of twentieth-century Mexican cultural production by critically tracing the underside of mestizo modernity. Examining a diverse corpus that includes poetry, song, avant-garde film, and more from the 1920s to '80s, the volume uses queer, feminist, and psychedelic theories to understand counterculture-and especially different acts of consumption-as a way of creating culture and alternative social structures. Practices of consuming media, sex, and drugs become means of generating community among subjects who have been marginalized by the nominally inclusive mestizo nation. Consuming Citizens thus rethinks nationalism, citizenship, and society in relation to, and as creations of, countercultural bodies.
