Anna Ramirez Interview
No full textAnna Ramirez (Class of 2020) was interviewed by Jonathan Angulo via the Zoom internet-based video conferencing software on July 9, 2020. Ramirez was born in Venezuela but grew up in El Paso and in Houston. She was involved in numerous academic organizations and programs during her high school career. Ms. Ramirez eventually decided to attend SMU because of the scholarship opportunities granted to her. She had a fairly normal experience at the university but did notice tense race relations on campus. In particular, she remembers how her friends told her about such events; moreover, some professors did not attempt to address race issues adequately. As a human rights and psychology major, she was able to participate in numerous events associated with the majors. During her senior year, Ms. Ramirez presented at SMU's research days. She discussed how historical memory influenced violence in Mexican American households. At the time of the interview, Ms. Ramirez was preparing to attend graduate school in Colorado

Jonathan Angulo Interview
No full textJonathan Angulo (M.A. 2018, PhD 2023) was interviewed by Laura Narvaez in the Norwick Center for Digital Solutions on May 16, 2023. Dr. Angulo was born on November 12, 1992 in El Centro, California, a binational border town with a predominantly Spanish-speaking community. He was the only of his siblings to be born in the United States instead of his family’s home state of Sinaloa in Mexico. Dr. Angulo describes his early observations about Mexican-American versus ethnic Mexican identity and how those experiences led to him feeling like he was not Mexican, American, or Mexican-American enough for his peers. He became inspired to study history in college because of his high school U.S. History teacher and how he handled darker, lesser-known aspects of United States history in his class. He studied at Imperial Valley College for two years and finished his undergraduate degree at San Diego State University (SDSU) in Imperial Valley. While at those two schools he met Professor Bradford Wright and Dr. Carlos Herrera, who stretched his writing skills and motivated him to attend graduate school. Dr. Herrera introduced him to the work of David Weber, the founder of the Clements Center for Southwest Studies, leading Dr. Angulo to apply to SMU’s graduate program. He was rejected at first but was accepted a few months later with a funded fellowship. In addition to the aid he was awarded, such as Pell grants and fellowships, Dr. Angulo worked full-time through the entirety of his undergraduate and graduate education. He describes the culture shock he experienced going from a predominantly Mexican community in Imperial Valley County to seeing the experiences of historically marginalized groups outside of the bubble he grew up in. Except for his peer Joel Zapata, he did not feel welcomed when he arrived at SMU, though he attributes most of this to not knowing many of the pop culture references his cohort made while they hung out together outside of school and, therefore, having a difficult time relating to them. He discusses how it was easier to connect with his coworkers and other peers who grew up working class. His first mentor at SMU, Dr. John Chavez, motivated him through his master’s program to improve his research and writing skills, proofreading his papers and offering advice as needed. Dr. Angulo began his involvement with the Voices of SMU Oral History Project (VOSMU) in August 2019. His classmate Dr. Camille Davis, the only PhD student accepted the same year he was accepted as a master’s student, recommended him to Dr. Jill Kelly, the faculty head of the program, who reached out to Dr. Angulo. He was also encouraged to participate by Dr. Zapata. He wrote a significant portion of his dissertation on the Imperial-Mexicali Valley in the midst of the pandemic and a difficult situation in his personal life. A class he taught over Zoom about the United States-Mexico international border at SDSU in Imperial Valley was a great help to him as he searched for primary sources for his dissertation, as he assigned an oral history project to his students. Dr. Angulo speaks fondly of the events he attended and organizations he participated in during his time as an SMU student, one of which being the Dallas Mexican-American Historical League. He states that he believes the administration needs to provide more support to graduate students, including raising the stipend to better match the cost of living in Dallas and ensuring that the humanities will not be cast to the side in favor of STEM. Dr. Angulo also discusses the state of race relations at SMU. While he believes that the Black Unity Forum spurred the administration in the right direction, he does not think the administration is moving fast enough. He points out the inequity between financial support for affinity groups for people of color versus affinity groups such as Young Alumni of SMU, and states that other organizations, such as Asian Council, the Association of Black Students, and the Hispanic or Latino Association (HOLA), should also get increased support from the administration. He explains how the lack of funding for the Latino Alumni of SMU severely limits their ability to connect with current and former students, and how that same organization has not received the same pledge of support from the administration that the AAPI and Black Alumni associations have. While Dr. Angulo states that he personally has not been the target of as much racism as his darker complexioned peers, he describes a couple incidents that illustrate the legacy of racism at SMU. In 2019 a still unknown group placed white supremacist flyers on car windshields on and near campus and, in 2023, someone hacked into an AAPI Zoom symposium and spammed the participants with anti-AAPI material. He points out that the more recent incident has not been addressed by the administration. Dr. Angulo states that leaving his bubble has helped him recognize and challenge racism and colorism in the Latiné community, as well as understand why it appears in the first place. He discusses how mulattos have been ignored and erased in Latiné history and how he is pushing back against anti-Black bias through the way he structures his classes. Dr. Angulo’s current projects involve publishing articles and participating in public history initiatives. They include an exhibit with the Dallas Public Library about the 15th year anniversary of the Dallas Mexican-American Historical League and creating a video with KERA for their series about the history of ethnic Mexicans in Dallas, with which he hopes to highlight the importance of Jefferson Boulevard’s quinceanera dress shops as the area becomes increasingly gentrified
Apuntes biográficos del general Nicolás Angulo
No full textNicolás Angulo nación el 10 de septiembre de 1803 en Zacatecoluca, hijo de Don Cecilio Angulo y Doña Josefa Coto. Nicolás era alegre y juguetón, inclinado al manejo de armas de fuego, travieso y con una memoria admirable. Antes de cumplir los 10 años quedo huérfano de padre y su madre lucho junto con sus hermanos para salir adelante. Fue a vivir un tiempo con uno de sus hermanos mayores a Guatemala pero más tarde se fugo y se vino a San Salvador, y a sus trece años se presento al Comandante, solicitando entrar al servicio en la guarnición e hizo ver su habilidad para tocar la caja de guerra y le dieron alta como tambor. Su aplicación para aprender el manejo de las armas y su buena conducta le favorecieron mucho. Y así inicio su servicio militar. Angulo cuando no estaba en el servicio militar, desempeñaba empleos civiles, así es que fue tres veces Diputado y electo Senador en el año 1850. El resto de sus días los paso en Santa Tecla, sin quejarse y sobre llevando su enfermedad con resignación y murió el 30 de agosto de 1879.El documento carece de portada algunos datos tomados de la catalogación existente en la BINAES.-- Esta Biografía ha sido transcrita por el Tátara nieto del General Nicolás Angulo, Ingeniero Santiago Mauricio Angulo Aguilar M.B.A. Jun. 7, 2013
