Alegria Bilingual Bookstores & Arts Collective (Alegria) published a full roster of Latinx and Afrolatinx writers through our publishing press. Latinx stories only makeup 6% of the literature industry, which is why it is crucial for us to continue to illuminate and amplify the voices of these artists. We also bring essential literary resources and poetry workshops in both English and Spanish to underserved communities throughout Los Angeles. Our mobile bookstore allows us to directly serve our target population of BIPOC, Latinx and immigrant communities in Los Angeles. To these communities, Alegria brings our Latinx and Afrolatinx poets to present spoken word poetry events, where audiences get to hear stories all across the Latinx diaspora. Alegria also hosts writing workshops for these communities in both English and Spanish to provide them a space to engage with poetry and begin to writer their own stories. Lastly Alegria brings bilingual literature resources such as short story and poetry books for our communities to read and engage with.
