SUMMARY:Screening of "Let the City Speak" documentary followed by Q&A
LOCATION:Wallis Annenberg Hall (ANN) Auditorium\, 3630 Watt Way\, Los Ange
 les\, CA 90089
DESCRIPTION:ADMISSION:\nAdmission is free and open to everyone. Reservatio
 ns are not required.\n\nRSVP\n\nDESCRIPTION:\nLet the City Speak is a fea
 ture-length documentary that follows QUETZAL\, a Chicano rock band that e
 merged from East LA's vibrant music scene in the 1990’s. Award-winning fi
 lmmaker Akira Boch has followed the band for nearly three decades\, creat
 ing an intimate portrait of leaders Quetzal Flores and Martha Gonzalez.\n
 \nRooted in Zapatista philosophy—the indigenous Mayan liberation movement
  from Chiapas\, Mexico—QUETZAL made a radical choice after three albums: 
 they abandoned the music industry for independence\, creating art aligned
  with their activism and challenging conventional notions of success.\n\n
 Through Boch's intimate lens\, the film captures their struggles\, small 
 victories\, and unexpected GRAMMY win for their album Imaginaries. Let th
 e City Speak weaves together memories\, music\, and activism\, revealing 
 QUETZAL's commitment to community and social justice. The film showcases 
 the enduring power of music in community — a testament to how art and act
 ivism can intertwine\, guided by the Zapatista spirit that continues to i
 nspire their journey.\n\nPrior to the screening\, café con pan will be av
 ailable starting at 4:30 p.m. while supplies last.\n\nPresented by USC An
 nenberg School for Communication and Journalism\, Annenberg Innovation La
 b\, and USC Arts in Action.\n\nThis program is open to all eligible indiv
 iduals. USC Annenberg operates all of its programs and activities consist
