Tertulia
Tertulia is a podcast in Spanish about how Spanish is used by real people in the United States to build community, transmit culture, reclaim identity, and exercise rights. It normally releases 2 to 5 episodes each year that tell a nonfiction story, weaving together interviews with narration, archival audio, and music, but it's not strictly limited to this format. In April 2021 it released "Las estrellas de Indianápolis," an episode that recounts how new leadership, a global pandemic, and the determination of two bilingual Latina journalists managed to get The Indianapolis Star, a 120 year-old newspaper, to pay attention to the Latino community for the first time in 2020; and more recently in November 2021, it released "La Peña," a special series of readings of fiction and poetry by 10 writers who live in the United States and write in Spanish.
