Join us with Profesor Denise Lugo and moderator Jose Antonio Aguirre for a conversation on the leading Chicano literary journal "Con Safos."

This month, for our next installment of Conversatorios de las Artes, the Mexican Cultural Institute of Los Angeles brings us a conversation with Professor Denise Lugo on Con Safos magazine. The magazine was a leading Chicano literary journal that emerged in the late 1960's to the 1970's in the East Los Angeles barrio, as a Chicano first voice to address and document "El Movimiento." It was a publication where Chicanos could tell their own stories, represent their own culture, and address political and social issues from within the barrio.

For adults.
