In his comedic one-man show, The Trouble with My Name, professor, author, and poet Javier Ávila explains the American Latino experience and what it’s like to become a minority.
Covering everything from home remedies to military service to the awkwardness of being corrected on how to pronounce your own name, Ávila brings together the seriousness of racial prejudice and the need for cultural awareness with the lightness of laughter.
