How Latino Stories Shaped the U.S.: Insights from Dr. Nicolás Kanellos
Episode 432
In this episode of Café con Pam, Pam chats with Dr. Nicolás Kanellos—professor, founder of Arte Público Press, and author of "Latino Firsts"—about the rich and often untold stories of Latinos who’ve shaped U.S. history.
Dr. Kanellos opens up about his Puerto Rican and Greek roots, how feeling invisible in school fueled his lifelong mission to highlight Latino voices, and the journey of digging up stories of Latino trailblazers in everything from civil rights to NASA.
They talk about why telling these stories matters now more than ever, what’s at stake with today’s cultural and political tensions, and why representation in education and media is so crucial for future generations.
