Title: Podcasting Latinidad as a Crónica Rhetorical Narrative in Stories, Music, and Entrevistas.
Authors: Reyes García, Zazil; Martínez, Diana Isabel
Abstract: Podcasts provide opportunities for challenging cultural practices and offer valuable perspectives. This essay explores how Latina/o/x podcasts extend notions of Latinidad to new media technologies, transcend borders, and offer a "hemispheric perspective"as an alternative to the "citizenship narrative" so ingrained in rhetoric's intellectual history.We use the concept of crónica to examine three podcasts distributed by NPR: the award-winning Radio Ambulante and Latino USA, and the music-centered Alt. Latino. The analysis reveals that crónica uses a hemispheric approach to Latinidad, personalizes broader issues, and historicizes Latina/o/x experiences.
