Salvi Yorkers bridges the past and present with powerful narratives about the Salvadoran diaspora in New York. Diego Murcia, from Bitextuales, helps author, Carmen Molina-Tamacas, cross one additional bridge by producing the audiobook version of her work. Now our stories can reach even more people and Diego can help tell your story too.
