Sub-Series Description

From the Sub-Series:

The subseries Causes documented Cisneros’ interest in civic and global issues. Included are letters she wrote to the editors of carious newspapers (1995-2013); materials relating to her appearance at the 1996 Democratic National Convention; peace proposals; and files relating to the San Antonio Public Library – and specifically, the need to include more Latino and Latina voices. Also included is a number of files relating to the war in Sarajevo in 1989 – a place that Cisneros visited in 1983-1984, and where she made a lasting friendship with Jasna Karaula.
