THIS WEEK ON LATINOPIA 3.24.15

March 24, 2015 by Tia Tenopia

THIS WEEK ON LATINOPIA: JESÚS TREVIÑO REMEMBERING ARMIDA VALDEZ, EDUARDO DÍAZ IN THE SHADOW OF THE GREATEST GENERATION, MARGARITO GARCÍA ON LAS ADELITAS AND ANGELA ORTIZ ON THE DRIVE HOME.

The Latinopia family is grieved to hear of the passing of Armida Valdez, wife of Teatro Campesino co-founder, singer/performer and music composer Daniel Valdez. Jesús Salvador Treviño, founder and programmer of Latinopia, rarely steps forward, preferring to allow his community to shine on Latinopia.  But on this occasion he reflects on the passing of a great lady and dear friend.

Latinopia is delighted to announce a new regular blogger: Dr. Margarito J. Garcia III. Look forward to his regular monthly blog titled “El Blogero Sincereo.” We initiate this new blog with his take on “Las Adelitas.” Welcome aboard Margarito!

Eduardo Díaz returns with his monthly blog, Mirándolo Bien with Eduardo Díaz. This month he recalls one of the greatest of the greatest generation.

Angela Ortiz brings another weekly visual treat with her photo “Driving Home.”
