This week Eloisa Gordon Mora, vice president of academic affairs at Sagrado Corazón University in San Juan, Puerto Rico, talks about how the economic crisis in Puerto Rico is destroying education at all levels from elementary to university schools.
Then we go positive with our esteemed colleague Liz Román of El Pueblo Latino/MassLive.com/TheRepublican, who tells us about the big giant fiesta taking place next week in Chicago, where the Puerto Rican community there is honoring Holyoke and Springfield, the cities with the largest concertrations in our region.
Larry Hott review four films: Ticked, Tales of the Grim Sleeper, The Young at Heart Chorus and Don’t Think Twice. The first two are investigate documentaries, while The Young at Heart is about Northampton’s much beloved chorus and the fourth, Don’t Think Twice, a comedy playing at Amherst Cinema.
And singing us out is El Topo with his song called “Verde Luz,” considered the unofficial anthem of Puerto Rico because rather than gloryfing Columbus as is done inthe official “La Borinqueña” song, his is a love to song to the beauty of our island.
