Sonora is joined by poet Carolina Hospital to continue the discussion of Cuban culture and identity from Episode 17. Carolina shares her experiences coming from Cuba at a young age, life in Miami pre-1980s, her journey from trying to assimilate into American culture to embracing her Cuban-ness, and how her experiences have greatly influenced her writing. Carolina shares two poems that really encapsulate different aspects of her identity at different moments in her life and writing career. She also asks Sonora follow up questions about Episode 17, and they compare growing up in Miami at very different times.
