BARRIO TELEVISION (work in progress) by Christina DiPasquale
(USA, 2026, TBD)
BARRIO TELEVISION uncovers the story of Puerto Rican activists who produced the first bilingual Latino television series to air nationwide called “Realidades.” After tracing U.S. complicity in the 1973 coup in Chile, “Realidades” received backlash and the Nixon administration moved to cut public-media funding, knocking the show off the air. Undeterred, the creators mounted a comeback—training media makers in Philadelphia, organizing a media coalition, and sparking a fight for media power that continues to this day.
Christina DiPasquale is a Colombian-American storyteller based in Philadelphia dedicated to advancing participatory media practices rooted in collective memory and movement-building.
