Agua Fresca: An Anthology of Raza Poetry is the very first publication to come out of Oreja Press, a small Tucson-based press that focused on Chicanx and Latinx voices. The press was founded by Estevan Antonio Rodríguez who also edited this anthology. With the exception of one, all writers showcased in this anthology were living in Tucson at the time of its publication. In these pages you will find poems written in Spanish, some poems written in English, and beautiful black and white illustrations done by Leonard Joseph Castro.
