Amigues! On today’s episode, we're talking pupusas and cumbias all day as author, event producer, activist and founder of the non-profit Salvies Who Lunch, Cyn Gonzalez joins us for an emotional chat about those loved ones that play a vital role in our upbringing and often become our safe space. We had no idea this is where the chisme would take us, pero ni modo. She shares what inspired Salvies Who Lunch, which aims to educate on and promote El Salvador’s culture and empower the Salvadoran community in the US through event programming.
Cyn also talks to us about her work with Lil Libros, a leading bilingual publisher in the country. Oh! And did we mention Cyn recently authored a children’s book about Fernando Llort, one of the most important artists from El Salvador which earned the CLASP 2023 Américas Award for Children’s and Young Adult Literature.
Be sure to follow @soycyngonzalez and @SalviesWhoLunch on IG and keep an eye out for their next event, Chevere, this August.
