Notas del episodio
In this episode, Professor Leal and Professor Citlali Sosa-Riddell discuss the historical themes examined in the first five episodes. Plus, they answer listeners' questions!
Dr. Sosa-Riddell (CSU San Marcos), who did the Latin American history episodes and is the series's co-creator, discusses her first encounters with Rock en Español as a third-generation Mexican American and how nostalgia can be useful when studying history.
In addition, Dr. Leal (UC Riverside) reveals the first ever Rock en Español songs that he furtively listened to during his long-ago adolescence in Guadalajara, Mexico, and how music pushes against many of society's most conservative norms.
From the listeners’ questions, we try to tackle questions such as “What are the Rock en Español legacy in Los Angeles?” and more.
