Latinos in the Media: An Evening with Maria Hinojosa
Wednesday March 8
6:00 PM: Reception & Book-signing in the Performing Arts Lobby
7:00 PM: Keynote Speech
As a reporter who was the first Latina in many newsrooms, Maria Hinojosa dreamt of a space where she could create independent, multimedia journalism that explores and gives a critical voice to the diverse American experience. She made that dream a reality in 2010 when she created Futuro Media, an independent, nonprofit newsroom based in Harlem, NYC with the mission to create multimedia content from a POC perspective.
Please join us for a special evening celebrating International Woman’s Day when Hinojosa will share her experiences and discuss the importance of sharing our stories as Hispanics and Latinos. Ms. Hinojosa will sign copies of her book at the reception preceding her lecture.
Free Community Event. Please register HERE or call the NHCC Welcome Center at 505-724-4771 for assistance.
Pre-purchase her memoir, Once I Was You: A Memoir of Love and Hate in a Torn America, by using the link HERE. Limited copies available, and all sales benefit the NHCC’s History & Literary Arts program.
