Biography:

Samantha Bay, M.S. in Applied Languages and Intercultural Studies in Spanish, presented, in Spanish, "La teoría de la industria cultural: una investigación sobre la comunidad Latinx" ("The theory of the cultural industry: an investigation into the Latinx community."). "I'm going to analyze theories about the cultural industry, looking at the expediency of Latinx culture in the music industry." "My original goal was to create a digital portfolio of research and first-hand examples of interactions in the industry." With so many concerts and festivals getting cancelled in the pandemic, Sam had to rethink her plans, but we hope that one day soon, this work will be possible again.
