LA Presentation Video (11/20)

The Cervantes Center of Arts and Letters has posted video of the presentations at their Mexican Revolution Centennial event last November in Los Angeles. That commemoration featured a screening of Toscano’s Memories of a Mexican. The presentations include Prof. Márquez-Sterling’s talk (en español) highlighting the efforts of his grandfather (Manuel Márquez-Sterling [1872-1934]) as the Cuban ambassador to save President Francisco Madero during the Mexican Revolution.

The presentation video is available on the Cervantes Center's Channel on YouTube in four segments.
