Just a few days after she launches her new book at Stanford, Graciela will bring its stories and actionable inspiration to our library. She'll address middle school students and older, their parents and those in career transition for a short 30 minute chat, then sign books. Here's the book blurb:
For students and career changers, Latinnovating is the first book to showcase Latino-led innovation and entrepreneurship in the green economy. These ten stories of highly educated leaders, across ten sectors of our economy, will encourage you to emulate their success. You can begin—or continue— your career as if our planet matters. Hopefully, you too will question unsustainable industrial and social practices and be empowered by these courageous examples. Perhaps you will become a force of change to benefit the environment and the economy. These innovators are Latinos; the opportunities they’re creating benefit all.
