Hola, bienvenidos to El Podcast del Profe Palacios, a podcast about Ethnic Studies, education, and issues affecting our Latino/e students and communities. I am your host Dr. Agustín Palacios, professor of Chicano/Latino Studies for more than 15 years at the community college. In this podcast we will talk about how Ethnic Studies is more than an academic subject; it is a practice grounded in community love and social justice. The analysis and conversations I will provide will be informed by many years of research, and also by my experiences growing up in the US-Mexico border and in the Salinas Valley. I will bring different guests to share their stories and academic journey. We will hear from professors, students, and community organizers. And sometimes, I will provide the occasional political piece, pues porque I get angry and I need say something. Asi que ponganse las pilas, y siganme los buenos!
