Hispanic Institute of Social Issues
Eduardo Barraza
He is a multimedia journalist with over two decades of experience. When he began his career, he
specialized in photojournalism working for various newspapers and magazines. Later, he established
an international journalistic service that provided stories and photographs to publications in Mexico
and the United States.
Seeking to take his experience to a deeper level, Barraza founded the Hispanic Institute of Social
Issues in 1998, which has evolved since then into a grassroots multimedia publishing agency,
focusing on social issues affecting Latinos and other minorities. In 2002, he founded Barriozona
Magazine, a bilingual print publication that in 2006 developed into an E-zine to reach a greater
audience. Barraza is also the author of the book titled “The Shoes of the Immigrant and Other
Writings”.
As journalism continues to progress and is reinventing itself, Barraza has tapped into the use of
digital resources to reinforce the power of a press that presents the voice of the people as opposed
to “being the voice” of the people. As he sees new challenges arise for journalism, Barraza strives
to uphold the true tenets of his beloved profession, among them truth, objectivity, and
independence.
