Amplifying Latinx Voices: Cultural Activism with Dr. Lizbeth De La Cruz Santana

Today we have a conversation with scholar and cultural activist, Dr. Lizbeth De la Cruz Santana, who also just happens to be our newest Baruch College, Black and Latino Studies colleague. We recorded this interview in person on October 28th, 2023 at Baruch College. In previous seasons we have spoken with Dr. Keisha Allan and PhD Candidate Joseph Caceres, who are also BLS colleagues, and we hope to be able to speak with other colleagues going forward. 

Before diving into the interview itself, we provide information on De la Cruz Santana’s scholarship, activism, and other projects broadly speaking. And then we share her more in-depth perspectives with you all. After the interview has concluded, we think back on the conversation with our guest.
