WORDS ON A WIRE: Carlos Aceves

  

  Daniel talks with Carlos Aceves, author of "Diadema," his first published novel.  The book was inspired by a true event.  In 2001, a spiritualist told Carlos of a vision she had of a special place in Hueco Tanks that he had to find.  Carlos discovered a symbol in a cave that signified an astronomical alignment.  Carlos also talks about his self-help book "Nine Seasons: Beyond 2012," which is a manual of ancient Aztec & Maya wisdom that we can apply to our lives today.  

In today's Poetic License, we air poems read by the late poet & activist Phil Goldvarg, who, though not Hispanic, was considered a Chicano by his fellow poets.

Aired March 1, 2015.
