Lupin is the Nuanced Immigrant Representation We Need

In 2021, the French-language Netflix series Lupin took over, becoming the first French series to debut on Netflix’s U.S. top 10 list.

Four Latinas on the ‘Saved by the Bell’ Reboot

The Saved by the Bell reboot premiered last week and it appears to be… good? Of course, we believe its success can be found in its latindad – it stars TWO Latinas in Haskiri Velazquez and Alycia Pascual-Pena and Maria Lopez is a producer. But what do Latinas think? Turns out, we’re pretty into it.

A Love Letter to Justina Machado

Justina Machado is one of those actors who you’ll watch whatever they’re in because they’re in it. This is our love letter to her, a Latina queen in a time when it’s pretty hard to even get on TV.
