“Bukele & the US Carceral Archipelago”
with Jorge Cuéllar
Jorge Cuéllar will talk about Kilmar Ábrego García, the Maryland man recently deported to El Salvador’s notorious CECOT maximum security prison alongside hundreds of other non-criminal Salvadorans and Venezuelans now disappeared in Nayib Bukele’s gulags. He will examine this phenomenon trans-nationally. Cuéllar will discuss the place of CECOT in Bukele’s economic plans, and how his servitude to the U.S. deportation machine marks a new turn in U.S./Salvadoran relations. Imperiling us all as democratic erosion marches on, Salvadorans in the U.S. and in El Salvador are articulating ways to resist Bukele’s punitive enclosures and challenge the legitimacy of this draconian, dehumanizing, pact that has emerged between Trumpism and Bukelismo.
• Jorge E. Cuéllar is a scholar of politics, culture, and daily life in modern Central America. His research and teaching focus on Central American Studies, Cultural Studies, Race, Migration, and Critical Social Theory. He is an assistant professor at
Dartmouth College.
