Daniela Gutiérrez Flores, assistant professor of Spanish at UC Davis, recently appeared on KQED's "Beyond the Menu" show.
In this episode, host Cecilia Phillips interviews the owners of El Garage in Richmond, Calif. as well as food writer Bill Esparza and Gutiérrez Flores, who specializes in early modern Spanish and colonial Latin American studies, about birria tacos — and their history — in the Bay Area and beyond.
Malaquías Montoya, a professor emeritus of Chicana and Chicano studies at UC Davis, is being widely celebrated with two major exhibitions at the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art at UC Davis and at the Oakland Museum of California. But he is much more than an artist. Montoya, 85, has influenced several generations of students who went on to make art or make a mark on the world in other ways.
The Andrés Montoya Poetry Prize is open to Latinx poets residing in the United States who have yet to publish a full-length poetry collection. Submissions for the prize open Nov. 1 and close Feb. 16, 2024.
