Nuestra Palabra: Latino Writers Have Their Say w/ Tony Diaz

Al Castillo, Pres of LULAC Council 60, Tells TX Gov Abbott that he owes his father an apology for his acts of voter suppression.

Manuel Valenzuela is standing up for Chicanos who are being deported. His plight is chronicled in the film "American Exile" by John Valadez. Here is a link to our interview about the film with John Valadez. We are also grateful for the special screening of the film for Nuestra Palabra: Latino Writers Having Their Say. "American Exile" will be released nationally by PBS:

This is also part of Nuestra Palabra's Ultimate Hispanic Heritage Month. Mario Castillo was also part of our #UHHM focus on Houston City Council District E, where LSC-Kingwood is located. We also want to thank our Nuestra Palabra Community Representative for District E-Daniel Saenz. He organized a great event on Facebook Live, featuring additional leaders and artists.

This campaign demonstrates that every Houston City Council District is a Latino District.

Mario's story demonstrates the power of leaders leading with Latino values, interests, and needs in mind. Tune in to find out more.
