  • Latino artist Manny Vega leaves his unmistakable mark on New York City

    Latino artist Manny Vega leaves his unmistakable mark on New York City
    Jul 28 2024
    In this edition of Tiempo, we explore the work of Latino artist Manny Vega. You've probably seen the murals and mosaics that decorate the city, artwork created by the Bronx-born artist. His creations often celebrate Latino pioneers. Vega has an in-residence exhibit at the Museum of the City of New York. Meanwhile, he is also conducting workshops for the public. Joe Torres speaks with Vega about his artwork and legacy. But first: Immigration scams are on the rise in New York City. Reports of those scams have spiked, according to several community agencies that help run the free immigration hotline by the New York Office of New Americans. The scams range from someone offering to get immigrants to the front of the line in court if they pay money, to someone offering help at a migrant shelter, again for money, and then they disappear. Scammers are also spoofing government agency phone numbers. Elizabeta Markuci, director of hotline services at Catholic Charities Community Services, joins Tiempo to discuss the rise in scams and how people can protect themselves.

    Americares helps Puerto Rico recover from natural disasters, powerful storms
    Jul 14 2024
    In this episode of Tiempo, we learn more about the potential powerful storms that could make landfall in Puerto Rico. This year, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently predicted the most extreme hurricane season in history. For Puerto Rico, the memories of Hurricane Maria and Fiona will never go away. Americares, a disaster relief and global health organization, has a chapter in Puerto Rico. The organization has been on the frontlines helping Puerto Ricans recover from these storms and natural disasters. The director of Americares Puerto Rico, Eric Jovan Perez-Lopez, joins Tiempo to discuss the preparations the organization has in place for potential storms. Also on the program, we learn about the great work of "Mi Patria Puerto Rico." Local military veterans created the group, which volunteers in Puerto Rico to help families rebuild after natural disasters. The nonprofit organization has reconstructed numerous homes across the island. Joe Torres speaks with "Mi Patria Puerto Rico" co-founders Raymond Collazo and Carmen Iris Santiago about the group and its mission. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
