Cisneros Not Impressed With Latino Entertainment Explosion

On this episode of Cafecito, we are joined by celebrated author, educator and activist Sandra Cisneros. The proud Chicana feminist discusses how her mother inspired her as a child, her latest book, Have You Seen Marie?, and why she thinks the Latina explosion in entertainment might not always be such a good thing. For more on Sandra Cisneros, her classic book The House on Mango Street (now available on e-books) and The Alfredo Cisneros Del Moral Foundation, visit her official website.
