We are back to Spanish Florida after a long hiatus, with the story of St. Augustine, La Florida after the founding of the city and the slaughter of the Huguenots at Fort Caroline until the construction of the Castillo de San Marcos in the 1670s. The city would almost fail, and in 1607 the Spanish Crown ordered that it be shut down and that Spain withdraw from Florida all together. That order would be promptly rescinded when the English landed at Jamestown. It is a story of courageous Catholic evangelism, Indian wars, relentless epidemics, and pirates, climaxing in the raid of the dread pirate Robert Searles in 1668. That attack would, ironically, result in a renewed commitment by the Spanish government to sustaining the city which would ensure its long-term survival as the oldest continuing town in the United States.

Wine bar hosts monthly open mic Along with Beaklyn, Baby Brooklyn and Brooklyn North (aka BroNo or NoBro), Beacon recently acquired another nickname: Broadway North. Singers gotta sing and there's enough critical mass that the Broadway in Beacon open mic fills Reserva Wine Bar on Main Street each month with a raucous crowd raring to revel in musical theater - tap dancing included. "There's been a real shift in work-life balance and theater folks don't have to suffer for their art anymore by living in tiny boxes," said co-host and pianist Will Reynolds. "People try out for Broadway shows from all over the country [virtually] and, if they get the part, they move. We in Beacon don't have to relocate." Jen Malenke devised the idea for a Broadway satellite after attending an event at Reserva at which the performer invited people to come onstage and sing. Malenke took inspiration from Manhattan piano bars that allow singers to hand their sheet music to an in-house accompanist and put over one tune. In Beacon, that pianist is Reynolds, who pulls off the task well. "I know 60 to 70 percent of the songs," he said. "The rest, I'm just going for it." The evening unfolds with an element of improvisation. Though the hosts map out the pace, they will shift acts on the fly. "We alternate the ballads with the up-tempo songs and also mix young people with older folks," said Malenke. "We don't want four ringers in a row, so we spread them out. We have these tentpole moments, but we're storytelling and don't want to stay in one mood forever." After an opening number, Act 2 kicks off with a Mad Libs, which takes a beloved number and recasts key words in the lyrics (often in ribald fashion). Everyone belts out the final version. Last month, Reynolds performed a localized take of "On Broadway," by The Drifters, that referenced the waterfall, the dummy light and climbing Mount Beacon, "but just don't go on the weekend / because the city folk will all be there." He conducted folks to echo the phrase "in Beacon" after the main "on Broadway" refrain. During the show, Malenke zipped around as MC and cheerleader. Beyond doling out high-fives, she joined the harmony parts, adjusted the microphone mid-song for performers, turned sheet music pages and handed Reynolds glasses of white wine (which he kept by his feet). She also sang two tunes and introduced the month's special guest: Rueby Wood, a fellow cast member from the first national tour of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory that began in 2018. Truth be told, booze lubricates much of the revelry. Reserva "is usually closed Wednesdays, but this is one of their highest revenue nights," said Malenke. "The best thing is that local people can walk home." Joanne Tetteris, who lives in Beacon, dressed like a performer but didn't sing. "It's nice to be able to see something local like this on a weeknight," she said. Ken Martinez and Janet Rossbach came from Newburgh. "I laughed a lot, and it was a phenomenally good night out," said Martinez. "I didn't think they'd be this good." On the small stage by the door, Connor Bond and Ali Grieb improvised a ditty about gonorrhea and falling in love at Target. "It was everything I dreamed of and more," said Malenke from the wings. "I'm crying over here." In between an appearance by Mylee Rose, a high school student from Lagrangeville, and ringer Carrie Gibson, who held out her last note for dramatic effect, Gianna Cusato pulled on tap shoes and shuffled her feet to "I Got Rhythm." Shooting sideways glances at the music stand and sometimes closing her eyes during a rendition of "She Used to Be Mine," by Sara Bareilles, speech therapist Daria Gates, whose office is down the block, nailed the high note at the end and sent the audience into a frenzy. Brian Waite, who performed "No Time at All" from Pippin and received raucous applause, thanked the crowd and joked that "it's nice to be in Beacon, the heart of Broadway." Reserva Wine Bar is located at 173 Main St. The next ...

Hace poco más de un mes rememorábamos aquí, en La ContraHistoria junto a Carlos Pérez Simancas, cómo una serie de exploradores españoles habían recorrido buena parte de lo que hoy es Estados Unidos cartografiando sus costas, desde California hasta Florida pasando por el golfo de México y la fachada atlántica. Estos pioneros de los siglos XVI y XVII fueron incluso más lejos. Vimos como Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, un náufrago de la expedición de Pánfilo de Narváez, recorrió todo el sur de Estados Unidos desde la costa del Atlántico hasta Arizona, y cómo Francisco Vázquez de Coronado recorrió los actuales Estados de Texas, Oklahoma y Kansas. También repasamos el viaje crepuscular de Hernando de Soto, que atravesó los Estados del sur cruzando los Apalaches para morir después en la orilla del río Misisipí. Todo ello fue la base de una de una presencia estable en ciertos lugares como lo que hoy es Nuevo México, donde Juan de Oñate fundó en 1610 la ciudad de Santa Fe, lugar en el que terminaba el Camino Real de Tierra adentro que partía de Ciudad de México. Pero los españoles no renunciaban a encontrar el ansiado paso del noroeste por el que poder acceder al Pacífico desde el Atlántico, sin necesidad de descender hasta casi el polo sur o hacerlo con mulas por el istmo de Panamá. El paso del noroeste nunca se encontró o, mejor dicho, terminaron dando con él mucho tiempo después, pero estaba helado e intransitable. Eso no fue obstáculo para que Carlos III ordenase colonizar California a mediados del siglo XVIII. Las costas ya se conocían a fondo, pero el interior era un misterio. En 1769 un catalán llamado Gaspar de Portolá capitaneó una expedición que recorrió California de sur a norte fundando misiones y pueblos. Los primeros en nacer serían San Diego y Monterrey. Junto a él iba un franciscano mallorquín, Fray Junípero Serra, que fundiría su nombre con el de California. Gracias a Serra verían la luz más de veinte misiones sobre las que surgirían ciudades como San Francisco, San José, Santa Bárbara o Los Ángeles. Esta última fue fundada en 1781 y su nombre original fue El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles. En aquel momento, en la costa atlántica de Norteamérica se estaba librando una guerra entre los colonos ingleses y la metrópoli. Esta guerra, de la que unos años más tarde nacerían los Estados Unidos de América, tuvo una acusada impronta española. En 1779 Carlos III declaró la guerra a Jorge III de Inglaterra. Más que amor por los independentistas americanos, a Carlos III le movía la rivalidad con los ingleses, que se habían impuesto dos décadas antes en la guerra de los siete años. La decisión fue de una importancia capital y posibilitó que George Washington y sus patriotas se alzasen con la victoria mucho antes de lo que pensaban. El rey suministró armas y financiación a Washington. Ordenó también a Martín de Mayorga, a la sazón virrey de Nueva España, y a Bernardo de Gálvez, gobernador de Luisiana, que apoyasen con tropas a los rebeldes desde la cercana isla de Cuba, que se transformó en base de avituallamiento para los independentistas. Los españoles aseguraron el golfo de México expulsando a los ingleses de los fuertes de Pensacola y Mobila. Esta maniobra fue de crucial importancia para la victoria y le valió a Gálvez ser nombrado ciudadano honorífico de los Estados Unidos, por eso su retrato se expone en el Senado junto al de Washington y el de Thomas Jefferson. No es aventurado decir que, en buena medida, Estados Unidos existe gracias a que Carlos III decidió apoyar a sus padres fundadores. Medio siglo más tarde sus herederos adquirieron a su nieto, Fernando VII, lo que hoy es el Estado de Florida. El resto lo haría la guerra entre Estados Unidos y México de mediado el siglo XIX. Tras ella se integraría el norte de lo que había sido el virreinato de Nueva España, varios Estados, entre ellos Texas y California, en los que la herencia hispana forma parte de su identidad.

Décadas antes de que llegasen los colonos de Mayflower a las costas de Nueva Inglaterra, el territorio de lo que hoy son los Estados Unidos de América fue objeto de una exploración muy intensa por parte de numerosas expediciones españolas. Unas se enviaron desde Cuba y Santo Domingo para explorar y conquistar nuevos territorios al norte del Caribe. Otras fueron encargos realizados por el virrey de Nueva España para cartografiar el norte del virreinato y extender sus límites. No fue, como a menudo se piensa, algo tardío y provocado por la llegada de otras potencias europeas a América, el interés de los españoles del siglo XVI por Norteamérica fue constante desde los viajes de Colón. El mismo descubridor de la Florida, Juan Ponce de León, iba a bordo de una de las naves en el segundo viaje de Cristóbal Colón a las Indias en 1493. Años más tarde Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca recorrió todo el sur de Estados Unidos desde la Florida hasta Arizona. Siguiendo sus pasos Francisco Vázquez de Coronado se internó en Nuevo México, Texas, Oklahoma y Kansas. Fue en ese viaje cuando otro explorador, García López de Cárdenas, se encontró con el gran cañón del Colorado. En la misma época Hernando de Soto emprendió una ambiciosa expedición en Florida que le llevaría hacia el norte por los actuales Estados de Georgia, Carolina del Sur y Tennessee. Cruzó los Apalaches y recorrió el valle del Misisipi atravesando Alabama, Arkansas y Luisiana. La idea de los virreyes de Nueva España era encontrar un paso al norte, una vía marítima que permitiese pasar del Atlántico al Pacífico, sin necesidad de circunnavegar el continente por el sur en un largo y penoso viaje que consumía demasiado tiempo. Pero Norteamérica era mucho más extensa y salvaje de lo que se imaginaban. Eso no fue obstáculo para que estos primeros exploradores levantasen mapas muy precisos de los accidentes geográficos que se iban encontrando y de las gentes que poblaban aquellas tierras. También procedieron a fundar nuevas ciudades que hoy son, con diferencia, las más antiguas de Estados Unidos. La decana de todas ellas es San Agustín, en Florida, fundada por Pedro Menéndez de Avilés en 1565, más de medio siglo antes que Plymouth en Massachussets. Para protegerla levantaron una fortaleza que es monumento nacional en Estados Unidos y cuya conservación es excelente. Unos años después, en 1610, Pedro de Peralta fundó Santa Fe, hoy capital de Nuevo México. En Santa Fe se encuentra la iglesia más antigua de Estados Unidos, la de San Miguel, en la que aún se sigue diciendo misma todos los domingos. Pero, a pesar de todos sus esfuerzos, los virreyes no encontraban el paso del norte. Ya en el siglo XVIII empezaron a explorar los confines occidentales de Norteamérica, lo que hoy se conoce como California. Las costas eran conocidas desde el siglo XVI gracias a expediciones como la de Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo o Sebastián Vizcaíno, pero el interior no se exploró hasta el reinado de Carlos III cuando Gaspar de Portolá penetró en la región fundando misiones de las que luego brotarían ciudades. La primera fue la de San Diego, más tarde vendrían la de Santa Bárbara, San Francisco y la de San Gabriel, junto a la que surgiría la ciudad de Los Ángeles. Aquello coincidió con el papel decisivo que españoles como Bernardo de Gálvez, gobernador de la Luisiana, desempeñaron en la guerra de independencia de Estados Unidos. Tras su independencia, México incorporó buena parte de los actuales Estados de California, Texas, Arizona, Nuevo México, Colorado y Nevada. La Florida permanecería en manos españolas hasta que en 1819 Fernando VII se la vendió a Estados Unidos. De la dilatada presencia española en los actuales Estados Unidos da fe inequívoca la toponimia, pero, a pesar de ello, no es muy conocida ni en Estados Unidos ni en España. En los últimos años se han publicado algunos libros y se ha realizado cierto esfuerzo por divulgar esa parte de la historia compartida entre estadounidenses e hispanos. Para hablar de ella tenemos hoy en La ContraHistoria a Carlos Pérez Simancas, nuestro corresponsal en Canarias, que siente fascinación por aquella gesta tan sorprendente como sostenida en el tiempo.

Beacon artist to resurrect former dealership DiNapoli and Salicco Motor Sales once showcased Studebakers to potential buyers and Ninni Construction based its business inside the one-story building on the southeast corner of South Chestnut and Henry streets in Beacon. But since the last occupant, an auto repair shop called Riccoboni's, closed, the only displays at 5 Henry St. have been graffiti sprayed on its walls and the quote from poet Audre Lorde - "Revolution is not a one-time event" - plastered on the plywood covering the window openings along the South Chestnut side. Now, buoyed by a $2 million grant from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), Beacon artist Michael Braden is preparing to break ground on the building's next chapter - as The Garage, a collection of studios for Braden and three other artists, a gallery for exhibits and a venue for public events. Braden said on Tuesday (Jan. 30) that construction documents are being finalized as he prepares to apply for a building permit to renovate the 11,000-square-foot structure, which will have rooftop solar panels, all-electric mechanical systems and other features to achieve carbon-neutral status. Demolishing the structure and rebuilding from scratch would have been cheaper, said Braden, who expects to break ground in May. "But there's too much history there," he said. "I just felt like we've got to keep this. This is important, somehow." Raised by his grandfather, a mason and stone carver, Braden is an architect, painter and sculptor who said he burned out on designing buildings and became a full-time artist a decade ago. He and his wife, Carrie Gibson, an actor and writer, decided during the pandemic to leave Los Angeles for New York City to be closer to their two grown daughters. They envisioned buying a brownstone in Brooklyn and renting a studio, but crashed headfirst into the city's high housing costs and lack of available properties. They settled for a property in Ulster Park, near Kingston, but felt too distant from New York City and the airports they used for travel. They took a look at Beacon and "everything about it felt right," said Braden, who moved with his wife to the city in 2022. "It's a community that exists on the sidewalk," he said. "You can see someone, strike up a conversation and, pretty soon, 20 minutes have gone by." When his search for a studio to accommodate his large-scale paintings and sculptures proved fruitless, Braden decided that "if I can't find something to rent, I'm going to do my own thing, and I found the building on Henry Street." Fortunately for Braden, a developer's proposal in 2021 to replace the structure with a three-story, 16-apartment building with retail space did not progress. His design calls for his main painting studio, a workshop, a gallery called The Viewing Room and an office and library to occupy 7,900 square feet. The surplus will be used to construct three 1,000-square-foot studios for other artists. The gallery will showcase his works and those by other artists, and Braden plans to open his studio to public events, such as poetry and script readings, and performance art. "I also want to, at least once a year, if not twice a year, sponsor something for young people - high school, community college kids who haven't had a lot of chances," he said. "They'd get a stipend to make some work and then show it." Both artists and visitors will use electricity generated by the solar array and heating and cooling produced by a geothermal system. A biofiltration system will decontaminate rainwater draining from the roof before it flows into Beacon's stormwater system. NYSERDA, whose Carbon Neutral Community Economic Development Awards grant is funding the environment-friendly features, initially said that the Henry Street project was not the kind they considered a priority, said Braden. "Our message and our desire to be part of the community, and just the whole vision, kind of slowly had us...

Carrie Gibson is an American-born, Cambridge-trained historian, journalist, and author. America, a wild outpost for British Puritans, speculators, merchants, and malcontents began in the year 1776, no? And it wasn't until the year 1863, on whose dawn Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, that we all began thinking about slavery, right? While these are, no doubt, important dates to remember, the real history of America (what we might call, Spanish America!) stretches much further back in time. From this episode, you'll learn…The historical significance of the British monarchy and whether it's been, on the whole, an evil visited, or a good conferred upon the rest of the world; imperialism old and new, as practiced variously by the British, French, Americans, and Chinese; if, in our studies and national myths, we overemphasize the role played by Christopher Columbus; the Valladolid Debate and the earliest arguments against slavery; Manifest Destiny and Karl Marx; Why conspiracies are so alluring; and if America suffers from a delusion of innocence. #history #columbus #americaTIME STAMPS0:00 Introductory Remarks 1:39 The Death of Queen Elizabeth and the state of the monarchy6:07 Carrie's Biographical Info 8:32 Has the British Empire been a net benefit or detriment? 10:18 Asian vs European Imperialism 13: 55 Differences between American and British schools, how they produce their scholars21:29 Do we care too much about Christopher Columbus? 30:10 With whom would YOU sail? 32: 27 The Valladolid Debate and Slavery44:30 American Expansionism and Manifest Destiny; Marx, Hegel55:10  Bad history and reasons we're drawn to conspiracies1:00;33 America's delusion of innocence, Reinhold Niebuhr1:07:50 Rapid Fire questions–Links to purchase Carrie's books: Empire's Crossroads: https://www.amazon.com/Empires-Crossroads-History-Caribbean-Columbus-ebook/dp/B00JLQ4QJA/ref=sr_1_1?crid=16N0B4C5D59EM&keywords=empire%27s+crossroads&qid=1663272871&sprefix=empire%27s+crossroads%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-1. El Norte: https://www.amazon.com/El-Norte-Forgotten-Hispanic-America/dp/0802148360/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2APVU17HXJ292&keywords=carrie+gibson&qid=1663269078&sprefix=carrie+gibson%2Caps%2C161&sr=8-2. Get in touch or keep up to date with Carrie here: https://carriegibson.co.uk. https://twitter.com/carrieegibson.https://www.facebook.com/cegibson. – Listen to this and all episodes on your favorite podcast streaming service: Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/74eUg83Q8zOgaRA5EBuzyl?si=871b6aa8082146af. Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finnerans-wake/id1560923796. –Please, don't hesitate to leave a comment or send me a message (to which, I assure you, I'll promptly respond!) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080972774597Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danielethanfinneran/Twitter: @DanielEFinneranEmail me at finneranswake@gmail.com

Today my guest Carrie and I will be talking about how to create value in everything you do in order to live a purpose-driven career. Everything from finding peace in the audition room, to bringing awareness to societal issues through the roles you play.Carrie Gibson is a professional actor, singer and writer.  She has founded two touring theater companies that toured character-driven original work on social issues to schools, and communities throughout the U.S. Carrie’s credits include Bones, Scream Queens, Superstore, All Rise, Hollywood, This is Us, and a recurring role on the Netflix comedy The Politician.  She has co-written several screenplays that are in development and set to go into production in 2021-22.Remember: Auditions, while necessary for actors, don’t have to be evil. Going into an audition with the singular goal of encouraging people you come in contact with welcomes in an entirely new experience in the audition room. Research: How can you implement active empathy in your personal and professional life? Not only will this enhance your relationships and your interaction with the world around you, but it will also strengthen your ability to embody a variety of characters with different backgrounds. Challenge: In your next audition, observe those around you and see how you can encourage them. Intentionally look for something about them that you can compliment or highlight to put a smile on their face. This ensures you’re remembered for your talent AND your heart. http://www.victoriaruke.comTo learn more about Carrie and her work:http://www.imdb.me/carriegibsonhttp://carriegibsontheactor.com/Follow her on social media: @carriegibsontheactor

Hello again Wine and Dime listeners! Mother’s day is a time to honor those special women in our lives that we call mom (or that feel like mom).  But what if you are a mom that has lost a child?  What is mother’s day like for you?  Carrie and Amy explore this topic and how we can show support and friendship to those special women who are grieving and the event she is planning with another month to develop support for each other. As a reminder, Carrie’s full story can be found in Episode #97 of Wine and Dime (https://www.rootedpg.com/wine-and-dime-podcast/2020/1/16/a-grieving-mom-is-never-alone-with-carrie-gibson) Carrie Gibson FACEBOOK PAGE (https://www.facebook.com/carrie.gibson.545) My ability to adapt to different situations in life came from growing up in a professional baseball family, which made it necessary to jump in and out of schools across the country each year (sometimes 4 moves per year). I also am a mother of two boys, having lost the eldest in 2017, when he was 29 and unmarried. I was forced into learning what needed to be done to handle his finances and affairs without any guidance. No grieving mom is ever alone in the way she feels daily. There are thousands of grieving moms who feel the same way she does. Although each person "deals" with the loss differently, we have all felt the same emotions at some point. Also, since the death of one's child affects every aspect of one's life, it is imperative that individuals who have never experienced the loss of a child understand what a grieving mom goes through emotionally and mentally. Finally, a grieving mom needs to know there are some things that need to be considered and addressed (especially when it comes to an adult child who is single) from a legal and financial perspective. In my book, Never Alone in the Darkness The Shared Journey of Losing a Child (https://www.amazon.com/NEVER-ALONE-DARKNESS-Shared-Journey-ebook/dp/B07Z6LVBWB) , I write about how to handle an adult deceased child's student loan debt, taxes, paychecks, leased vehicles. NEVER ALONE IN THE DARKNESS (https://www.amazon.com/NEVER-ALONE-DARKNESS-Shared-Journey-ebook/dp/B07Z6LVBWB) The Shared Journey of Losing a Child was written by a grieving mother who lost her oldest child in 2017. Feeling isolated, walking on the edge between reality and insanity, she had no idea if what she was feeling was normal. Had other mothers experienced the same emotions when they went through the nightmare of their loss? Finding purpose in her pain, she put her deepest emotions into words so other mothers would always have a reference to read, at any given point in their grief, to identify with a mother who knew firsthand what they were feeling. It was her hope these grieving mothers would then never feel alone in their own journey.

Welcome back Wine and Dime listeners. This was a very different kind of episode than we normally have. I had the distinct pleasure of chatting with Carrie Gibson. Carrie is the Author of NEVER ALONE IN THE DARKNESS: The Shared Journey of Losing a Child. (https://www.amazon.com/NEVER-ALONE-DARKNESS-Shared-Journey-ebook/dp/B07Z6LVBWB) The book tells Carrie’s story of what no Mother should ever have to go through, the death of a child. In this episode we talk about the grieving process, and the support systems to help people get through these traumatic events. We also talk about some of the financial situations that arose since that day, and continue to present themselves. This book and this episode is very emotional. So stop on in and listen to this incredible story of sadness and resiliency. Carrie Gibson FACEBOOK PAGE (https://www.facebook.com/carrie.gibson.545) My ability to adapt to different situations in life came from growing up in a professional baseball family, which made it necessary to jump in and out of schools across the country each year (sometimes 4 moves per year). I also am a mother of two boys, having lost the eldest in 2017, when he was 29 and unmarried. I was forced into learning what needed to be done to handle his finances and affairs without any guidance. No grieving mom is ever alone in the way she feels daily. There are thousands of grieving moms who feel the same way she does. Although each person "deals" with the loss differently, we have all felt the same emotions at some point. Also, since the death of one's child affects every aspect of one's life, it is imperative that individuals who have never experienced the loss of a child understand what a grieving mom goes through emotionally and mentally. Finally, a grieving mom needs to know there are some things that need to be considered and addressed (especially when it comes to an adult child who is single) from a legal and financial perspective. In my book, Never Alone in the Darkness The Shared Journey of Losing a Child (https://www.amazon.com/NEVER-ALONE-DARKNESS-Shared-Journey-ebook/dp/B07Z6LVBWB) , I write about how to handle an adult deceased child's student loan debt, taxes, paychecks, leased vehicles. NEVER ALONE IN THE DARKNESS (https://www.amazon.com/NEVER-ALONE-DARKNESS-Shared-Journey-ebook/dp/B07Z6LVBWB) The Shared Journey of Losing a Child was written by a grieving mother who lost her oldest child in 2017. Feeling isolated, walking on the edge between reality and insanity, she had no idea if what she was feeling was normal. Had other mothers experienced the same emotions when they went through the nightmare of their loss? Finding purpose in her pain, she put her deepest emotions into words so other mothers would always have a reference to read, at any given point in their grief, to identify with a mother who knew firsthand what they were feeling. It was her hope these grieving mothers would then never feel alone in their own journey. She also discovered her words provided a better understanding of grieving mothers to those who had never experienced the unimaginable darkness of losing a child.

Because of our shared English language along with the celebrated origin tales of the Mayflower and the rebellion of the British colonies, the US has always prized its Anglo heritage above all others. However, as Carrie Gibson explains with great depth and clarity in her book “El Norte: The Epic and Forgotten Story of Hispanic North America,” the nation has much older Spanish roots—ones that have long been unacknowledged and often marginalized. Join us for a conversation with Carrie Gibson on “El Norte” and the too often overlooked history that inspired it, in this edition on “Leonard Lopate at Large” on WBAI.

Dr Carrie Gibson has recently released her new book in hardback in February 2019. These are the words of the New York Times book review: "'El Norte: The Epic and Forgotten Story of Hispanic North America' is the book that Americans, Anglo and Hispanic, should read as an education on their own American place or role ... Gibson takes on the task of accounting for the relevant and telling cases of our modern process of national formation and regional negotiations. This is a serious book of history but also an engaging project of reading the future in the past." The Guardian in the UK gave equally as positive a review. In this exciting episode of the @versushistory Podcast, Dr Carrie Gibson answers a wide range of questions about 'El Norte' and the complex relationships between Latin and North America through time. It is truly fascinating. For terms of use, please visit www.versushistory.com
