Bibliocracy Radio: Adolfo Guzman-Lopez on California Southern
This week: journalist and poet Adolfo Guzman-Lopez, out with a collection decades in the making. Published by Hinchas Press, he joins me this week to read from and talk about California Southern: Writing from the Road 1992-2025. Longtime radio reporter for LAist (89.3 FM in Southern California), Guzman-Lopez is a chronicler of the personal and political, a civic witness and a cultural guide with a multi-lingual voice and perspective full of empathy, insight, humor, and wisdom. A founder of the Taco Shop Poets and writer/producer of the podcast The Forgotten Revolutionary, this autobiographical poetry project assembled by Guzman-Lopez tells the life stories of not just one witness to our civic life but stories of individuals, communities, and movements.
