Taller Puertorriqueño and The National Boricua Human Rights Network present a book signing reception with
Congressman Luis V. Gutiérrez
Still Dreaming: My Journey from the Barrio to Capitol Hill
A candid, savvy, inspiring, and often hilarious memoir
by one of America’s most fearless political leaders.
Beloved by the immigrants and working people whose rights he has championed, eleven-term Congressman Luis Gutiérrez is- along with Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor- among Latinos, the two most recognized Hispanic public figures in America.
Gutierrez recounts his life between two worlds: too Puerto Rican in America, and, too American in Puerto Rico. Yet, his tremendous will and resilience shaped his varied experiences—from picking coffee beans to driving a cab—into one of the most surprising careers in American politics.
Share his incredible journey and support Taller’s construction of the new El Corazón Cultural Center.
