from Patos Salvajes · host Patos Salvajes Podcast

Patos Salvajes es el espacio radiofónico de los estudiantes del M.F.A. en Escritura Creativa Bilingüe en la Universidad de Texas en El Paso. Hoy tendremos un encuentro muy especial con dos maravillosas poetas locales. Nancy Lorenza Green es una una voz imprescindible en la frontera, su cultura de origen combina la rama materna mexicana con la raíz paterna afroamericana, escritora absolutamente bilingüe que además es un músico sorprendente. Se define como Afro-Chicana y todas las fronteras confluyen en ella. Toni Beatriz Fuentes, en tanto, es una poeta de raíces originarias Apaches y, como lo dice ella misma, un alma mexicana, expresión de esta sensibilidad que no reconoce fronteras.Patos Salvajes is the radio program of the students of the M.F.A. in Bilingual Creative Writing at the University of Texas at El Paso.

She defines herself as Afro-Chicana and all borders converge in her. Toni Beatriz Fuentes, meanwhile, is a poet of native Apache roots and, as she herself says, a Mexican soul, an expression of this sensibility that recognizes no borders.
