We’re gonna be on NPR!

Hey, now this is press we like.

I got an email from an Oakland-based journalist Reese Erlich last month. We were connected by Global Exchange, a cool organization I traveled to Cuba with four years ago on a cultural exchange program (before the Bushies decided to ban that in the name of Freedom. Don't get me started....)

Reese was planning to file a few stories about Peru, and I suggested a few ideas and contacts. Turns out one of the stories he liked was ours! Or I should say more accurately, Cynthia's. Hip-hop Latina New York girl travels to Peru to come to grips with cultural identity while plunging into folkloric dance world. Perfect fit for Latino USA, a weekly show airing on NPR stations.

Cynthia was in fabulous form, spinning tales from her "gangster" days in NY to remote villages in Peru with her unique blend of street smarts, wit and insights that continues to blow me away.

And thanks Generalisimo de Sonido Guillermo Palacios and Anamari from Perfo Sound Studio for sharing their space and expertise.
