Episode 142 | J. Leigh Garcia

This week on Hello, Print Friend Miranda speaks with J. Leigh Garcia. Leigh is a professor at Kent State University whose multi-disciplinary practice explores her bi-racial identity, and other contemporary Latino-American issues. We talk about what it was like to grow up in Dallas, family dynamics when one parent is a 7th generation Texan and the other is a child of undocumented immigrants, the 2016 election, and making work about border politics in the mid-west.
