Juan Carlos Mezo-González

​

Hello!

I am a historian of sexuality, race, and visual culture in Mexican and transnational contexts. I hold a B.A. (Hons) in History from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (2014) and an M.A. (2016) and Ph.D. in History from the University of Toronto (2022). 

​

My research and teaching focus on Mexican, Latin American, LGBTQ+, and Indigenous history. I am currently a Visiting Scholar in Sexuality Studies at York University and I teach courses on Latin American history at the University of Toronto. My first book-length project examines the relationship between transnational gay liberation politics, print culture, and images in the Americas from the early 1970s to the mid-1990s.
