Cultura Latina - homage to singer and activist Mercedes Sosa

Follow the music, admire the art, place yourself inside historic architecture, in Telesur's "Cultura Latina". In this week's program, host Mauricio Izquierdo, takes us to Venezuela for an exploration of the country's African roots as expressed through tambor music and such festivities as the Fiesta de San Juan de Curiepe; followed by a homage to the talent of Mercedes Sosa, legendary Latin American singer of Argentine origin, who combined music with political struggle on behalf of the oppressed and exploited. teleSUR
