Worth Repeating: Norma And Oreo

Oscar Moreno

Dogs hold a special place in Norma Cantu's childhood. The professor of humanities now calls the campus of Trinity University her neighborhood.

But growing up, her neighborhood was a barrio in Laredo. In this story, she remembers the neighborhood mascot, a dog named Oreo.

This story was recorded at 3.3.20 at Brick as part of Worth Repeating's "Mother Nature" show
