Que Pasa Calexico

Today I had the opportunity to talk to two amazing women who are giving a platform to authors of color and at the same time promoting cultures from all over the world to children in our community.  My guest today were Hayde Yanez and Gisel Barrett who are the creators and host of Niños Book Fest, a book fest that due the pandemic has evolved into a weekly reading show on their Instagram page.

Today I had a returning guest, the first time he was on he was a candidate for the Calexico city council, this time around he's now part of the city council, my guest today was city council member Raul Ureña.  Raul has only been a council member for about a month and he's been really busy and I had a couple of questions for him regarding some of the items he has brought up to the council since he's been elected.  It helped clarify some of my doubts and I hope it did the same for some of the listeners.
