Local public radio station WMFE 90.7-FM did a story on the growth of the Puerto Rican population in Central Florida this week for its Intersection program, which aired today at 9 a.m. Host Mathew Peddie interviewed me for the story, as well as local political-union activist Jimmy Torres Vélez, Socorro Ramos-Avilés, and Spanish-language radio host Magda Ivette Torres.
