Trinity University Student Ivanna Bass Caldera Co-Writes Texas Public Radio Story on San Antonio’s MLK March

Trinity University's Ivanna Bass Caldera '26 co-wrote Texas Public Radio's story on San Antonio's Martin Luther King Jr. Day March. In the story, Caldera highlighted how a tradition that began with just 10 people shortly after Dr. King's assassination has evolved into the nation's largest annual MLK march, drawing hundreds of thousands of participants along a nearly three-mile route on the East Side to honor his legacy while also addressing ongoing community and civil rights concerns.

Caldera is a senior double-majoring in Communication and Global Latinx Studies with a minor in Spanish. Through experiential learning opportunities with Texas Public Radio and the local chamber nonprofit Agarita, as well as her role as a radio show host at KRTU 91.7 FM, Trinity's radio station, she is connecting her academic studies with professional journalism and media practice. The story aired on all TPR member stations in South Texas: KTXI FM (Hill Country), KVHL FM (Marble Falls, Llano, Burnet), KTPD FM (Del Rio), KCTI FM (Gonzales), and KTPR FM (Midland/Odessa).
