Visual Companion | Community Voz S5 Ep 3 From Huapango to Rock

Music is an important part of the movement. Our favorite songs remind us who we are and where we’ve come from. As part of a series of radio shows about C2C team members and the music they love past and present, Brenda Bentley and Liz Darrow recently made a show about the influence of punk rock music on their lives. In this second part of the series, Rosalinda Guillen shares songs from her childhood and teen years.

In Rosalinda’s words, “By 1969 I was totally into rock and migrating, working in the fields as a teen mom. All the young Mexican Americans were into rock and roll. There was so much rock from California flowing north with the migrant workers. But that’s another show!”
