Letra Latinas, Part 2: A Conversation with Rigoberto González

Listen in on an oral history conversation with poet Rigoberto González, interviewed by Francisco Aragón, director of Letras Latinas, as part of the Letras Latinas Oral History Project. Discover González’s journey from his artistic beginnings as a child who read avidly in a home environment that did not prioritize books and his first encounter with Truman Capote’s work (as an actor) to the power of nonfiction writing as a gift to younger generations and why he believes the community of Latinx poets should have room for everyone.
