Tertulia Histórica Albuquerque: Revolts and Revolutions

2 pm (MTS)
Live via Zoom

Register in advance for this meeting HERE.

Rob Martínez, New Mexico State Historian

Since colonial times, revolts and resistance have been a regular part of New Mexico history. Puebloan people had revolutions against Spanish political, economic and religious institutions. Spanish colonists resisted Spanish  governors who thought themselves superior. Mexican New Mexicans resisted Mexican governors they did not like, and Pueblo and Genizaro natives joined in. New Mexicans revolted against American governors and economic institutions when things were not to their liking. And even into the twentieth and twenty first centuries, New Mexicans of all backgrounds fought for their rights. State Historian Rob Martinez looks at the history of revolts, revolutions and resistance throughout New Mexico’s fascinating history.
