Caro, MFA
Bronx, New York
Natalie N. Caro is an interdisciplinary artist, activist, editor, and Lecturer. In 2015, she was nominated for one of the most honored literary projects in America, The Pushcart Prize. In 2013, she was awarded the Bronx Recognizes Its Own (BRIO) Fellowship by the Bronx Council on the Arts for excellence in Poetry. Currently, Caro is a doctoral candidate in CIAS-Center for Inter-American Studies, Bielefeld University (Germany), where she pursues a degree in Philology. She used to want to be a mermaid, but she learned to write before she ever learned to swim. Sometimes, she swears that school saved her, but then she thinks about the colonization of a mind and feels some type of way.

Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)
Philology
InterAmerican Studies are aimed at the liminal, interregional, and intercultural areas where the mixture, hybridization, and otherness, is highlighted. The national ceases to be the primary measure of consideration, which opens a broader space of study to allow for a better analysis of the limits, borders, and differences presented in the region. While transgressions, exchanges, and various migrational dynamics are studied, conflicts and chasms that exist on the continent will also be explored.
