content: Contains thirty interviews (digitized and in cassette form) conducted by Frank Espada of community leaders and residents. These interviews span between 1980-1982. Most are dated and document the lives and experiences of the people he interviewed such as Jack Agüeros, Juan Gonzalez, and Willy Vasquez. Some of the interviews are in Spanish. The purpose of the interviews was to give the Puerto Rican community a platform where their voices could be heard and later shared. The interviews are arranged in numerical order.
