Latino Memphis leader leaving – Puerto Rican native surprised by role – Jose Velazquez
Tagged: Memphis, Puerto Rican, TennesseePosted on: June 25th, 2007“When he arrived in Memphis 10 years ago, Jose Velazquez did not know his future would align with the then-small but germinating Hispanic community in Memphis.
He was an academic — a historian — without a job. His wife, Jennifer, had landed a job as organist for Independent Presbyterian Church, so Jose and their then-5-year-old daughter followed.”
