About this listen
Hello again, everyone. Welcome back to Meet. In today’s episode, I sat down with some of the members of the West Side Sound Oral History Project. Made up of a team that includes academics, historians and multiple community perspectives, the project aims to archive a genre of music synonymous with San Antonio.
Dr. Sylvia Mendoza is an assistant professor of Mexican American Studies at UTSA.
Dr. Gloria Vásquez Gonzáles is a lecturer in the Mexican American Studies program at UTSA.
Geremy Landin is a student at St. Mary’s University, a graduate student in the school of public history.
Rooted in the cultural pride of the West Side — but inspired by many genres of music — the project aims to foster a space in which underrepresented voices are heard, documented and captured for the future generation.
