Alcaraz is the creator of the nationally syndicated and politically charged Latino comic strip La Cucaracha, featured daily in the Los Angeles Times, Denver Post, Arizona Republic, Houston Chronicle, Chicago Sun-Times as well as 60 other major newspapers. He brings a Latino sensibility to political and social commentary and champions the need for a multicultural visibility in the media. Alcaraz’s multimedia presentation will include sketching his favorite cartoons and sharing his wit, subversion, anarchy, politics, humanism, and rage for a thought-provoking presentation. His latest books are La Cucaracha and Migra Mouse. Alcaraz also co-edits the satirical magazine, POCHO.
