Episode 1: DJ Life (Interview with My Dad Part 1)

Join host, Marcella "Fresita" Rodriguez as she explores the latinx community’s complicated relationship with academia. Here at Latinx en Academia our goal is to highlight the academic experiences of brown and black community members and allies. Not everyone pursues higher education and many people’s educational journey ends much earlier than expected. Some people’s journey takes a much different route than they planned for. We are here to talk with folx about their academic story. Thank you for listening.
