Latina Lista special correspondent Rebecca Aguilar interviews Dallas Mayor Pro Tem Dr. Elba Garcia.
If you weren't at the Bishop Arts District last night, you missed a helluva party. With its easy mix of trendy restaurants, modern art galleries and offbeat shops, the two-block area was transformed (a word we'll be hearing a lot of in the days to come) into the Democratic Election Night headquarters. It was a perfect backdrop for the hundreds of people of all ages, races and professions who hiked, biked, bussed or drove in to fill the streets and witness history in the making with their fellow Dallasites.
Along with the throngs, Latina Lista was there filming the night. Latina Lista special correspondent, Rebecca Aguilar, spoke with people about why they were there, what the election of Barack Obama meant to them and the future of the country. But as the old saying goes — pictures speak louder than words. Latina Lista contributor, photographer James Khattak, shared some memorable photos of the unforgettable night — none of which should need a caption.
