“Olga Briseño, director of the Media, Democracy and Policy Initiative at The University of Arizona, was involved in the national effort to advocate for the production and distribution of a U.S. Postal Service stamp to commemorate the work of slain Hispanic journalist, Ruben Salazar.
Briseño collected 1,300 signatures in support of the stamp and gathered resolutions from national Latino organizations and submitted them to the Postal Service’s Selection Committee for consideration. The Postal Service will officially announce the stamp’s release date and artwork later this fall.”
