  Searching, propulsive, and deeply spiritual, Accordion Eulogies is an odyssey to repair a severed family lineage, told through the surprising history of a musical instrument 
   
   
   
  Growing up in Yakima, Washington, Noé Álvarez never knew his grandfather. Stories swirled around this mythologized, larger-than-life figure: That he had abandoned his family, and had possibly done something awful that put a curse on his descendants. About his grandfather, young Noé was sure of only one thing: That he had played the accordion. Now an adult, reckoning with the legacy of silence surrounding his family's migration from Mexico, Álvarez resolves both to take up the instrument and to journey into Mexico to discover the grandfather he never knew. 
   
   
   
  Álvarez travels across the US with his accordion, meeting makers and players in cities that range from San Antonio to Boston. He uncovers the story of an instrument that's been central to classic American genres, but also played a critical role in indigenous Mexican history. Like the accordion itself, Álvarez feels trapped between his roots in Mexico and the US. As he tries to make sense of his place in the world—as a father, a son, a musician—he gets closer to uncovering the mystery of his origins.

  The 1960's - A Decade of Change...

  The 1960s opened with a sense of cautious optimism in America. Following the stability of the postwar 1950s, the country was on the brink of transformation. The seeds of change were being planted by a young and increasingly restless population. The rise of youth culture signaled a break from the conservatism of their parents’ generation. Young people began questioning authority, traditional values, and the social norms that had shaped American life for decades. Television became a powerful force in shaping ideas, music spread messages of rebellion, and college campuses buzzed with debates over justice and freedom. Teenagers and young adults embraced new forms of expression, setting the stage for a cultural revolution. 
  At the heart of this evolving decade was the civil rights movement, which had already begun stirring in the 1950s. In the early years of the sixties, the push for racial justice gained momentum, marked by nonviolent protests, sit-ins, and mass marches. African Americans, particularly in the South, fought against systemic racism and demanded equal treatment under the law. Martin Luther King Jr. became a prominent voice during this time, advocating for civil disobedience and peaceful protest. As the movement grew, so did the urgency for legislation that would challenge segregation and discrimination. The activism of this period began to awaken a broader consciousness about social injustice, laying the groundwork for other rights movements to follow. 
  On the global stage, the Cold War continued to cast a long shadow over American life. The rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union defined much of the political atmosphere. The threat of nuclear conflict loomed, and the government’s efforts to contain communism influenced both foreign and domestic policy.
