Diablos Rojos: A Window into Panamanian Identity
Pubblico DepositedDiablos Rojos are privately-owned heritage buses that the Panamanian government is phasing out in favor of the public MetroBus. The purpose of this project is to document how Diablos Rojos represent the development of subaltern Panamanian identity. With our sponsor, Dr. Grant Burrier, we collected personal stories from drivers, artists, mechanics, and passengers through a semi-structured interview process and conducted personal ethnographies. The communities we met demonstrated how the buses are essential to Panamanian history, cultural identity, and the mobility of the working class.
