Legacies of the Chicano Moratorium // It’s Been a Minute, NPR, 2020
We take it back 50 years to the Chicano Moratorium in Los Angeles on August 29, 1970. That march and rally against the Vietnam War — and the disproportionate number of casualties of Mexican Americans in that war — ended in 200 arrests, many injuries, and three deaths, including journalist Rubén Salazar. It’s Been a Minute producer Andrea Gutierrez shares a personal story about it.
The Latin Explosion of 1999 // It’s Been a Minute, NPR, 2021
We reexamine the so-called “Latin explosion” of the late ’90s: what it was supposed to be for audiences across the U.S., what it actually came to represent and how the streaming revolution upended the multi-genre landscape of Latin music. Sam Sanders co-hosts this episode with producer Andrea Gutierrez.
