"immigration"

Alegría Publishing founder Davina A. Ferreira says, “It’s all beautiful. It’s magical. It’s a lot of work, of course. But I feel very lucky.”

As we close Women’s History Month, we’re taking a moment to celebrate Latinas who continue to make waves in and out of journalism.

At SXSW, Latinos from John Leguizamo to Julio Torres to Cheech Marin sounded off on the importance of our community creating our own stuff.

Julio Torres’ “Problemista” is a unique, hilarious, and poignant look at what it takes for marginalized folks to make their dreams a reality.

It used to be that immigrants on TV were almost exclusively Latinx but that’s been changing thanks to show’s like Netflix’s “Mo.”

Out of all that makes “Andor” special, its portrayal of Latinidad might just be the most important thing for our communities.

Watching these Latinx and Latin American comedians, I couldn’t help but see proof that we’re more similar than we think. 

In issue 16 of #TheLatinaPress, we celebrate Leo season, discuss that Emmys snub, and make some summer reading recommendations.

You should watch “The Gordita Chronicles” NOW and not just because it’s going to need a lot of love to make it to season two!

“Somewhere We Are Human” is a new anthology created by currently or formerly undocumented people. Curated by Reyna Grande and Sonia Guiñansaca, the entries range from visual art to personal essays (with poetry, arguably, in between), with authors, artists, and curators hail from Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Inherently this book shapes an understanding of immigration usually left out of US textbooks.
