Political cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz of “La Cucaracha” fame will be visiting the Fullerton Public Library this week. He’ll be interviewed by OC Weekly’s Gustavo Arellano and will have his new 2011 calendars on hand just in time for the holidays. (Check the above flier for the 411) It’s just the latest in a series of secret-not-so-secret “Viva La Raza” events at FPL. Arellano spoke weeks ago about Steinbeck’s “Uvas de Wrath,” then brought the “Mi Casa es Mi Casa” Bernal family for a night of local civil rights history and is now hosting Alcaraz. Me thinks the basement auditorium of the FPL is becoming an underground hub of the reconquista! Sssshh!
Ps, maybe Alcaraz can touch up the Lemon Street Murals while he’s down here. Supervisor Shawn Nelson would LOVE that!
Everyone should go!
On your say-so,
I’ll give a peso.
Sneak a bottle of tequila in!
And people! polish off your High School Spanish and ask someone in Fullerton ‘donde esta la biblioteca?”
I know where it is – I’ve done some events there, and most recently witnessed the Scuffle of the OC Bloggers there! Unfortunately I gotta be at the other end of Fullerton for Thursday night choir rehearsal.
It’s on the north side of Commonwealth a few blocks west of Harbor. Catty-corner from STEAMERS which would be a great place to slip over to afterward!
It was another great event for all those who came. More to come in the future!
Ps, for all that missed it, flip recorders were in full effect so a YouTube video should pop up sooner than later!!
