Salinas Underground


We tell the story of the city we grew up with by interviewing the people that make it what it is: the business people, the musicians, the scholars, anyone that adds to the culture of Salinas.

Jun 8, 2016

This week our guest is Claudia Melendez Salinas, a local journalist that recently published her first book titled A Fighting Chance. It is a story of a boy growing up on the east side of Salinas and his daily attempt to keep his life going in a direction that will help his family. We also talk about how journalism has changed in the last 20 years and what role blogs, podcasts, and other new media have in influencing journalism.
