LA PLAZA is a passport into Latino communities, from South and Central America and Caribbean nations, to local immigrant populations. The series has used many forms to explore Latino life - original short-form documentaries, fictional films, panel discussions on topical matters, and musical and dance performances. This season, 15 episodes feature noted author and critic Ilan Stavans' in-depth discussions with leading thinkers from across Latino communities, including musicians, authors, a journalist, an actress, a bookstore owner and an activist.
