Episode 8: The Tortilla Diaries Ep. 8—The Wrong Side of the Tracks

  • サマリー

  • Hola amigos, somos familia! This month's podcast focuses on Rev. Dr. Daniel Rodriguez. Brother Dan—as his congregation fondly called him— pastored at La Trinidad United Methodist Church in San Antonio from 1983-2002. His activism for social justice guided his ministry over the years. In 1966, he served in the Rio Grande Valley in Mission, TX—just a few miles from the Mexican border and participated in and supported the striking farmworkers in their 400-mile march to the state capitol in Austin. His activism continued while at La Trinidad. He pursued community organizing efforts in Mexican American communities on the west and south sides of San Antonio and joined Communities Organized for Public Service (COPS) and The Metro Alliance. As a result of his activism, he assisted these organizations in dismantling longstanding discriminatory laws and practices. Many of these Jim Crow laws oppressed minority communities in San Antonio since the 1870s. Brother Dan actively served in the Rio Grande Conference of the United Methodist Church for over fifty years. He passed on July 19, 2020 at the age of 88. I'm so honored to feature his interview on my podcast and am dedicating this edition of The Tortilla Diaries to Rev. Dr. Daniel Rodriguez and my dear cousin, Gustavo Dominguez.
