Associate Professor Alvis Dunn teaches Latin American History, North Carolina History, Humanities, and Geography. Dr. Dunn earned his doctorate at UNC Chapel Hill and taught for 15 years at Guilford College before coming to UNCA in 2013. He was born and raised in rural Chatham County, North Carolina, the son of postal employees who also farmed and ran a hardware store. Guatemala is his second home and his most recent work there has focused on US Citizens, who like him, have come to love that country.

 

James Wood is currently Professor of Latin American and modern world history at North Carolina A&T State University. He is the author of The Society of Equality: Popular Republicanism and Democracy in Santiago de Chile, 1818-1851 and the co-editor of Problems in Modern Latin American History: Sources and Interpretations, now in its fifth edition with Rowman and Littlefield. As a Fulbright scholar for Chile in 2016 he was a visiting professor at the Universidad Diego Portales in Santiago (where he observed Chilean student activism up close).
