Description

On this episode, we think about the relationship between art, racism, and social justice as we continue to engage our year-long Anti-Racism theme.  We speak with Dra. Leslie C. Sotomayor II, Visiting Assistant Professor of Women's and Gender Studies at Texas Tech, about her work as a scholar, curator, and working artist, and how her various projects contribute to an anti-racist mission.  Then we hear from Danielle Demetria East, founding Director of East Lubbock Art House, a vital center here in Lubbock for showcasing marginalized artists, supporting anti-racism, and building community.
