The power of people truly inspiring one another is always amazing to me! In this episode, featuring Manuel Fernando Rios, I got a bit of extra special amazement because of who inspired him (Ricardo favela). The more I experience the impact the members of the Royal Chicano Air Force have on their students and the people around them, the less surprised I am when amazingly dope things happen as a result of their work in the community. They truly inspired a generation of teachers and leaders of all kinds. In 2023, Manuel is one of those leaders who carries on the legacy with work in the art community.

Thank you
