NO MÁS - Carmelita Torres and the 1917 bath riots.
NO MÁS is the dramatic retelling of the 1917 Bath Riots. Have you ever heard about this piece of history? The 1917 Bath Riots? I've lived in El Paso for 20 years and had no idea. I had no idea that in 1917 El Paso customs officers were stripping Mexicans - men, women and children - naked and delousing them with chemical agents. The injustice was more than Carmelita Torres could take. On Jan. 28, 1917, Carmelita, a 17-year-old Mexican housekeeper who commuted by trolley daily to El Paso for work, led the biggest protest the Juárez-El Paso border has ever seen. Today, it is known as the 1917 Bath Riots. Hear the story unfold on Aug. 21, when NO MÁS premieres on Anchor. Three days later, NO MÁS will also be available on Spotify, iTunes, and Google Podcasts.
