Author to speak at Northeastern University


I'm happy to announce the Latin American Student Organization at Boston's Northeastern University has invited me to speak during Hispanic Heritage Month. My presentation is titled "How the Immigration Controversy is Shaping the Hispanic Identity." The 30-minute live/AV presentation explores how politicians, extremist groups and the media are influencing how others see us -- and how we see ourselves. A question and answer session will follow.  

The event is free and open to the public. I hope you can attend.
