We never imagined that we’d make such a big impact with this podcast. This episode we’ll explore how Elisabeth Villalta and her family had their lives changed forever in a way they never expected. This is a story about the search for family and identity. It’s also a story about the power of community and how it can help overcome the impossible and reunite long lost families.
Who are you? Where do you come from? The need to find and define our identity is innate in all of us. We don’t need it to live, to eat, to reproduce. Still, we can’t ignore it. You need to know your story and the stories of all the people it took to make you. This is where Elisabeth Villalta finds herself and this is where this story will take us.

Thank you to everyone that took part in this months-long project. In our community, there is a prevailing sense of invisibility. That the challenges we face are often overlooked. Many Salvadorans navigate through life overcoming hardships, confronting traumas, and cherishing small victories, all while feeling isolated in their struggles. This is why we feel it’s so important to share our stories—both monumental and everyday.
Thank you to the Salvadorans willing to share their story with us. It takes courage to open up and we want to acknowledge your gift of authenticity. It may not feel like a lot, but sharing your stories helps us all feel more connected to each other.
Also thank you for listening and sharing our work. It’s thanks to your support that our community feels seen. Together, we’re making our stories less invisible with each shared moment.

In “The People’s Hospital,” Ricardo Nuila sheds light on the challenges in US healthcare but also shares that there’s hope. Children of immigrants grappling with the complexities of healthcare for their loved ones will resonate with Ricardo’s unique perspective. Informed by both his medical expertise and Salvadoran background, we discuss the human side of healthcare and navigating “Medicine Inc.” with cultural and linguistic barriers.
Ricardo Nuila is a writer, teacher, and practicing doctor. He is an associate professor of medicine, medical ethics, and health policy at Baylor College of Medicine, where he directs the Humanities Expression and Arts Lab (HEAL) program.
The importance of human contact Writing for a broad audience, not doctors Showing people they have power in their healthcare Seeing hope in Ben Taub hospital Great healthcare in a public hospital Healthcare now is geared toward making money Fee for service care motivates doctors to provide more services for more patients What is Medicine Inc? An industry at war with each other Almost impossible for patients to be good consumers of healthcare The US spends double of what some comparable European countries pay Public healthcare patients pay reasonable costs because there’s no profit incentive Teaching doctors how to better communicate with patients Challenging a doctor’s authority to get better information How can we maintain our cultural identity and still be healthy? Algorithmania - how strict adherence to protocol blinds us to the humanity of patients The pressure of first gen and second gen immigrant children providing help to the family How immigrant families care for their sick loved ones The impact of the busy American lifestyle on health and care How can we better consumers of medical care for ourselves and our familyShow Resources:

Montreal based Salvadoran hip-hop artists Tony Dez and Chellz have been through a lot. Their family's journey to the Great North inspires them to write deep and personal music that speaks to the soul of the Salvadoran Diaspora. Their work recognizes the trauma and strength of our community and celebrates our heritage with Latin-infused hip-hop.
Tony Dez and his family fled the Salvadoran Civil War as refugees, an experience that forms a powerful motif in his music. His independent full-length album, "El Viaje: Alma Ambulante," released in 2021, serves as a testament to his unique vision and artistic expression.
Chele Chellz, also a Salvadoran, is the front man of Montreal-based Latin Rap group Sonido Pesao. His symbolic and poetic lyrics in his album "El Paseo Del Alma," released in 2022, provide insight into the mind of the artist.
They join forces in "Lumbre (Pa Los Santos)." The seamless fusion of Latin rhythm, urban energy, and uplifting lyrics in this single set dance floors on fire this summer.
From LA to El Salvador to Montreal We had to run from our homes You don't understand the extent of violence when you're a kid The trauma of migrants Did the war break us or make us stronger? Salvadoran musical influences Infusing hip-hop with Salvadoran culture and sounds Cumbia has spread around the world Cypress Hill – Latin Lingo influences How merengue/cumbia fit with each other Does the infusion of Latin culture make hip-hop less popular?

Imaginense, an interdisciplinary, intergenerational, international bloom period for El Salvador. Prof. Lotti wonders if we may be in a bloom period now as we talk about her research in postwar El Salvador in the early 90s. Can we avoid the desencanto she describes in her first book “Everyday Revolutionaries”? Or are we continuing La Lucha like the 1.5 insurgent generation in her third book “After Stories”?
Irina Carlota (Lotti) Silber is Professor and Chair of the Department of Anthropology, Gender Studies, and International Studies at CCNY where she also holds the position of Director of Strategic Initiatives at the Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership.
