For my final project, I chose to make a Tumblr dedicated to La Llorona. Instead of focusing on a specific aspect of La Llorona, my Tumblr is a mash up of all things related. In the first blog post, I gave a historical background to the Mexican folktale so that readers will have adequate background knowledge of her. I also gave other versions of the stories via other Tumblr members or YouTube videos. In addition to this, I also connected some of the things I found to some works we had discussed in class. For example, in the news story I found about the woman killing 7 of her newborns, I made a connection to the element of salvation found in Cherrie Moraga’s The Hungry Woman. In the novel, Medea killed her son Chac-Mool in order to save him from what he might become. Although the woman in the news story gave no reason as to why she killed her children, given the presence of substance abuse and violence within her marriage, one can assume she attempted to save her children from the unhealthy environment. The main focus of my Tumblr was to bring the story of La Llorona to life. I wanted to show testimonies of those who claim to have seen her as well as news stories that reveal an uncanny resemblance to the folktale. All in all, I wanted to give La Llorona more depth than what the folktale alone reveals.
