Afternoon Tertulia: “La familia Farallón” – Exploring the Spring 2024 Journal on Bernado Vega
Cost: Free
September 3 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
Join moderator Gustavo Quintero and panelists Virginia Sánchez Korrol, Malena Rodríguez-Castro, Molly Crabapple, and Ángel “Monxo” López-Santiago virtually on September 3rd as they discuss the Spring 2024 CENTRO Journal on Bernardo Vega’s manuscript “La familia Farallón.”
Discovered in 2011 and donated to Centro de Investigaciones Históricas (CIH) at the University of Puerto Rico-Río Piedras, Vega’s manuscript was originally the source for Memorias de Bernardo Vega: contribución a la historia de la comunidad puertorriqueña en Nueva York (1977), edited by César Andreu Iglesias. This issue continues the comparative study of Vega’s original text and its edited version, exploring a century-long Puerto Rican diasporic history, focusing on experiences in New York from 1916-1947 and Vega’s later political activities in Puerto Rico while emphasizing collective struggles, community building efforts, and the many achievements of Puerto Rican migrants.
