Audio: Neighbor Sol Villasana talks about his new book on KERA’s “Think”

Sol Villasana is a lawyer who lives in Lakewood, and he grew up in the Little Mexico neighborhood. He recently published a book, Images of America Dallas’s Little Mexico from Arcadia Publishing.

Krys Boyd of KERA’s “Think” interviewed Villasana about the book this week. It’s interesting stuff about the history of downtown and what is now Uptown and Victory Park from the perspective of Mexican Americans. KERA’s studios are in the former Little Mexico neighborhood, and it’s a neighborhood whose history has been somewhat neglected.

Listen to the interview here. The book is widely available, including on Amazon.
