Storytelling

Cuentos
ojo con los temas controvertidos escribir como cuentos para poder explicar gender issues and class issues

la ficcion genera reflexion como lo etnografico
hablar de todos los peros y las formas de controlar lo que dicen y no dicen o los pactos las cosas que uno no quiere contar de lo etnografico
hacer una ficcion de una participacion mia en el carnaval
"ethnographic fictions"
reminds the readers and me what is this about
and proves that what i am saying is true

tying together is the difficult part!!

Vignettes

como "vignnettes" cada tanto en la dissertation
ubiqutus concept that funciton politically (lo mestizo) la indecibilidad (la undecidability de un termino ver derrida)

how the context defines the term and that is why those terms have so much symbolic power in any direction, they seem to be speaking to everybody they identify with them but comes down to some things different
works for very different political agendas

how the term is configured as a bodily level how to deal with how the mestizo is connected to race and to gender and to class, looking trough the lens of the body

and how the mestizo moves around look at gender in the mestizo that because in the making of the mestizo you have these other categories like afrocolombian spanish, criollos, indigena, when we say race we are bundling a very specific category in that body allows me to go into the intricacies of it

highlight the political aspect of the term race in Latin america
citizenship?

understand why is so important to be so interested in the moving body(keep it in mind while writing)
make it explicit!!!
