Episode description

On this episode, Yvette interviews Carolina Escamilla Rivera about her book of short stories "After" about an adolescent coming of age during the Salvadoran Civil War. They discuss how Rivera "composted memory" to communicate what has happening in El Salvador in the 70s and 80s, the role that theatre plays in the fight for a better world, and balancing the climate of disinformation while accurately portraying leftist resistance to the government.
