Gilbert and Jaime at Kirby's birthplace

Completely seperate from Alt.Latino, the LatinoUSA radio show interviews Jaime and Gilbert Hernandez while performing art on stage at the Rock Shop in Brooklyn. Carolina Gonzalez asks them questions about how the punk movement appealed to them.

Another snippet from the the Hernandez interviews features writer Junot Diaz speaking about the first time he found 'himself' in a book. That book was comic Love and Rockets and Diaz credits the Hernandez Brothers for making his life's work possible. There is a full Junot Diaz interview available on Volume 1 Brooklyn where he talks about the Hernandez Brothers at length as well!
