Commentary on Latin America. Mostly about Mexico - but not always. Designed to encourage readers to learn about the apparently "secret history" of 500 million people spread across two continents - but not always. You can always count on a little snark.

The Fox and The Pope
There are moments such as these when I have a hair's breadth more sympathy for the Juaristas of the 19th century.
"Narcissistic and histronic"... sounds about right, but isn't that true of any politician? Oh well, as Lady Bird Johnson once said, "Presidents should be born orphans and die bachelors."
Jason Dormady is currently an associate professor of history at Central Washington University where he teaches courses on Mexico, general Latin American topics, world history, and religion in Latin America. He is also a member of the CWU Latin@ and Latin American Studies program faculty. You can read about my research interests at Academia.
The statements on this page do not reflect the views of Central Washington University or the Latin@ and Latin American Studies program.
