Manage episode 374452820 series 1973095
The Nuestra Palabra Familia is honored to get to call Dr. Cintli a friend. His work has shaped a people. His writings are testament to our greatness. On behalf of Nuestra Palabra: Latino Writers Having Their Say, Librotraficante, and The Latino Bookstore at the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center, we extend our condolences to his familia and all the lives, the generations that he touched and will continue to touch. We are honored that he joined us when NP still took place in the party hall of Chapultepec Restaurant, in Montrose, in Houston, Tejas. The Librotraficantes smuggled his works back into Arizona when the AZ right wing legislators banned Mexican American Studies, and the Latino Bookstore in San Antonio, Tejas is honored to have hosted the launch of his most recent book Writing 50 Years (más o menos) Amongst the Gringos. We will strive to honor him by continuing to demand, as he said, that our gente be heard. #Unidos
