Shadow and Light

The Ink & Iron


Listen Later

It’s time for us to visit the heart of Chicano resistance in this episode, "The Ink and Iron"! We're not just exploring history; we're learning the unyielding power of prison poetry from icons like Raul Salinas and Enriqueta Vasquez, who knew the inside of places like Soledad Prison. This is where tales of injustice meet resilience, and the fierce fight for land and identity transforms paper into the ultimate weapon of freedom. Let the echoing cadence of marching footsteps, the vibrant energy of slam poetry, and the nostalgic crackle of old radio broadcasts transport you to a period when words carved out liberation from behind bars.
