Hostos50 Oral Collective | Tere Martínez, Playwright and Professor
If the legendary Puerto Rican educator, writer, and patriot Don Eugenio María de Hostos were alive today, I wonder what he’d think of the community college in the South Bronx named after him, that no one thought would make it. Alas.
Just this past Thursday, Eugenio María de Hostos Community College launched its 50th Anniversary Season.
I can't help but believe that Don Eugenio would be proud of what one of the most marginalized and disenfranchised communities to have ever been in United States history did for themselves.
