BBC mundo goes on U.S. roadtrip

March 26, 2008 by Veronica Villafañe

Starting Friday, March 28, BBC Mundo, the BBC’s Spanish multimedia service, launches the second part of its US Hispanic initiative ¿Hablas Español?, as part of its coverage of the U.S. election campaign. For three weeks, the BBC Mundo team will travel across the northern part of the U.S., starting in Seattle, to discuss key issues affecting the Hispanic communities, while speaking only Spanish.

Correspondents José Baig and Carlos Ceresole will document their experience via daily blogs, videos and pictures to be featured on the new U.S. Hispanic page, Mundo USA on the BBC Mundo website. Their journey ends on Monday, April 14 in Washington DC.

The project, which started in 2007, initially focused on the impact of the Spanish language on the everyday life of Hispanic Americans, to how English-speakers react in areas with a strong Hispanic presence. The team’s 2007 itinerary covered southern U.S. states: Florida, Alabama, Texas, Louisiana, Arizona, New Mexico and California.
