La Raza meaning "the race" is the name of a radio network which broadcasts regional Mexican music in the U.S. state of California. La Raza has two stations, with one operating as 97.9 in Los Angeles and another one as 93.3 in San Francisco.
93.3 (KRZZ) was formed in 2004 and broadcasts to Spanish-speaking audiences in the San Francisco Bay Area. La Raza plays mainly norteño and banda music, and occasionally plays cumbia and salsa.
97.9, based in Los Angeles, broadcasts to Mexican Americans in the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
Kimberley Perez, the world's youngest radio presenter, has hosted a radio show at La Raza since she was five years old. (source: Guinness World Records)
