Show Notes


Join Leonard for a conversation with Carrie Gibson on “El Norte” and the too often overlooked history that inspired it, on today's edition of Leonard Lopate at Large.

Because of our shared English language along with the celebrated origin tales of the Mayflower and the rebellion of the British colonies, the US has always prized its Anglo heritage above all others.

However, as Carrie Gibson explains with great depth and clarity in her book “El Norte: The Epic and Forgotten Story of Hispanic North America,” the nation has much older Spanish roots—ones that have long been unacknowledged and often marginalized.
