A Conversation with Laura Villegas Forward Together: A Podcast from the Arkansas Poor People's Campaign

    • Society & Culture

In this episode, University of Texas alum and El Dorado, Arkansas native Laura Villegas, a Spanish language interpreter and member of our Greatest Generation, explains how life as a New York City editor in the 1960s, a parent in Argentina, and an educator in northwest Arkansas led to the 2017 Women’s March on Washington, the Poor People’s Campaign, and liberating Arkansas’ migrant communities.

Stay tuned as Laura and host Nate Davis explore White privilege, silence, and widely accepted myths in white families that have gone unquestioned for generations, and are currently being dismantled in the US as the demographic shifts.
