- W1981446754 abstract "In 1994, Mexico's powerful television network, Televisa, aired a bio- graphical telenovela, which intended to rehabilitate dictator Porfirio Diaz (1830-1915) as part of the neoliberal revision of history. Early episodes featured Diaz's relationship with a young indigenous cigarette vendor, Juana Catarina Romero (portrayed by Salma Hayek). Romero's histori- cal role was almost completely expunged, and she appeared mainly as the exotic sexual aggressor in one of Diaz's romantic dalliances. In reality, she risked her life as a Liberal spy in the struggle against Con- servative armies. In later decades, she emerged as the richest merchant, sugar refiner, and philanthropist in her region. This study argues that Romero's representation is emblematic of the treatment of women and indigenous peoples in Mexican history, the erasure of their agency not only by nineteenth-century nation builders but also twentieth-century neoliberals. While it reconstructs Romero's actual role in history, it demonstrates how this telenovela perpetuated gender, racial, class, and ethnic biases that serve neoliberal interests and the increasing social inequalities they generate. young, delicate, indigenous beauty, red and gold ribbons braided into her raven tresses, matching red and gold flowers embroidered on her black huipil (a short blouse), a long yellow skirt, a basket of ribbons on her arm: such is Televisa's first image of Juana Catarina Romero. Salma Hayek was perfectly cast, a vivacious and diminutive Istmena herself. As the dash- ing young Captain Porfirio Diaz arrives in the plaza of Tehuantepec, his eyes soften, captivated by his first view of her. The handsome actor, Humberto Zurita, strongly resembles the young Diaz and conveys his discipline and severity. Only two scenes later, when they have barely spoken two sen- tences to each other, Juana Cata steals into Porfirio's bedroom at night. She disrobes as she approaches the bed where he is dozing, piece after piece of Tehuana finery falling to the floor. She lets down her hair and climbs into bed with the surprised but pleased Liberal Commander of Tehuantepec. The year is 1858. Thus did El vuelo del aguila (The flight of the eagle), a biographical telenovela of President Porfirio Diaz's life, portray the origins of the rela - tionship between Juana Catarina Romero and Diaz (dictator of Mexico from" @default.
