The
Pebbles Center Inauguration Ceremony In an effort to expand community awareness about Latin America, the Stone Center is leading an initiative in the New Orleans Public Library that places a resource in one of the branches. This resource center, or Pebbles, will offer books and multimedia items, as well as community events related to Latin America. Caribbean Soundscapes Conference Popular music has often been singled out as a central defining characteristic of the Caribbean imaginary. This conference responded to the need to expand our scholarly paradigms in this area, recognizing intense regional transnationalization and change in the region in recent years. Speakers and participants addressed several key questions: what is the significance of the Caribbean as a specific locale for the production and circulation of popular music? What role does popular music play in the creation and continued performance of national identities throughout the circum-Caribbean and other zones, such as continental Latin America, northern North America, and Europe?
