    On this edition, we introduce you to two creative innovators in their respective fields who released some incredible work last year, one in book form, the other as a musical recording. In the first half of the show, we hear from Veteran Public Radio journalist Maria Martin, the founding executive producer of the NPR show Latino USA, who’ll tell us about her new memoir Crossing Borders, Building Bridges: A Journalists Heart in Latin America. Then, in the second half, we speak to Colombian musician, pianist and arranger Pablo Mayor, whose latest album with the Folklore Urbano Orchestra pays tribute to the great sounds of the Nuyo-Rican Salsa scene that emerged in the 1960 and 70s. The album is called El Barrio Project Salsa, and we give you a taste of it right here…on Getting to the Root. Hosted by Mario A. Murillo.

  • Getting To The Root - Immigration and Latinx Vote
    On this edition, we take a look at the Biden administration’s initial steps at developing an immigration policy agenda. As you may know, President Biden signed three executive orders in early February that he said would lead to a more "fair, orderly, humane" immigration system.” But is it enough? We spoke with Patrick Young, who served as an immigration lawyer with the Central American Refugee Center (CARECEN) for 35 years. He is Special Professor of Immigration Law at Hofstra School of Law and he is currently the Downstate Advocacy Director for the New York Immigration Coalition; and Nadia Marin Molina is Co-Executive Director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON), leading the Workers Center and Workers Rights areas of work. An attorney who has devoted her career to advancing the rights of immigrants in the workplace, she was formerly the executive director of the Workplace Project, and served on Biden’s transition team. Then, in the second part of the show, we examined the so-called Latino voter, a few months after the historic elections of last November. A lot has been written and said about what some pundits described as new trends in the Latino electorate in 2020. We were joined by independent journalist Michelle Garcia, who’ll tell us why it’s not anything new, it’s just that mainstream media pundits continue to misunderstand the complex dynamics that make up the diverse Latino population in the US. Hosted by Mario A. Murillo.
