Paulina Alberto

academic

Paulina Alberto is a professor of African and African American Studies at Harvard University, recognized for her research on the historical narratives surrounding racial identities in Argentina. She critically examines the myth of the 'disappearance' of Black and Indigenous populations in the country, challenging the dominant narrative of a homogeneously white Argentina. Alberto's work seeks to highlight the mestizo identity of the Argentine population and promote a more inclusive understanding of the nation's history.
