    E64 A Cultural Lens of Lent and Holy Week

    We 3 Latinas talk about our experiences with Lent and Holy Week and how it differed for us as Latin women. Leslie and I have a Catholic background, so we grew up with a Catholic view, but even she and I, still had marked differences in how we celebrated this most sacred of times.
