Vana Con Muñoz 9.3.16

In Vaya Con Muñoz

Longtime journalist Diane Alverio, founder and publisher of CTLatinoNews, talks with us about Donald Trump and Republicans with no good option in November.
Larry Hott reviews “The Music of Strangers,” a documentary about cellist Yo Yo Ma and his ensemble and invited musicians as they travel the world. This isn’t a concert movie, though; this is about how music defines us and our times and transforms cultures. Larry says it’s an astonishing film in both content and even frame by frame. I believe him.
We are sung out by Colombian singer-songwriter Carles Vives singing a happy song, “Quiere Verte Sonreir,” I want to See You Smile.”

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.
