dc.descriptionIncludes descriptive metadata provided by producer in MP3 file: "InterVu - Listen: Center for Latin American Studies provides educational resources for Dichos exhibit." Artist is Vanderbilt University. The Center for Latin American Studies (CLAS) provided educational support for an ongoing exhibit at Cheekwood that highlighted a disappearing folk art traditionally found on Latin American trucks and buses. "Dichos: Words to Live, Love and Laugh by in Latin America" was to be on display through Jan. 17. Dichos are sayings or amusing expressions that individuals drivers inscribe on their vehicles in a variety of graphic styles and colors. With the emergence of corporate trucking companies and the government push for standarized public transportation, the number of vehicles decorated with dichos is becoming more scarce. CLAS offered two teacher workshops to help K-12 instructors maximize the content as a teaching tool with their students. Ann Marie Deer Owens is the presenter and Claire Gonzalez, the CLAS's Outreach Coordinator, speaks.en
