Brown in Red Orange County - a podcast by HTI Open Plaza
from 2021-04-26T04:05:14
Dr. João Chaves talks to sociologist Dr. Jonathan Calvillo about his research and about life in Santa Ana, a hub of Latinx activity in one of the most conservative counties of California—a city once dubbed by the media as the hardest place to live in the U.S. Dr. Calvillo’s most recent book, The Saints of Santa Ana: Faith and Ethnicity in a Mexican Majority City (Oxford University Press, 2020), explores the role of faith in shaping the experiences and identities of Catholic and Evangelical Mexican immigrants within multigenerational Latinx neighborhoods. “To tell the story of Santa Ana,” Dr. Calvillo insists, “you must not discount the religious communities that are for and by Latinos.”
