BLACK LIVES MATTER: Latinos NEED to do better (Part 2/2)

We said it once and we’ll say it again, and again, and again. BLACK LIVES MATTER!!!

This week we continue with last week’s discussion about how Latinos need to do better in the fight for black liberation.

We discuss what is race and how it is not the same as ethnicity, the difference between how Mexico & USA look at racism, and how we are calling out racism in our community. 

J & Lesly also continue their conversation with Laisa & Jackie about their Latinx experience with racism and conversations they're having with family and friends.

We hope this episode is enabling those white passing latinos to do some internal work and really go full out for support of black lives. This isn’t an easy conversation for anyone and we understand. But enough is enough. We need to do better and be better.

Remember, colonization didn’t happen overnight and neither will dismantling its structures. But together, we can do anything. It all starts with a conversation.

Timo-itazke!
