California Latinas and Latino Men Are 17 Points Apart on What Matters Most
A UCLA and Berkeley poll found Latinas and Latino men in California 17 points apart on what they want from a governor.
It’s no Summer, if you don’t head out to enjoy a music festival event! Live music, dancing, cerveza or a michelada and if it’s an outdoor event – grub to street meat, elotes or fruta on-a-stick, and you are set!
Latinx pride, resilience and persistence of cultural preservation only gets stronger as we rise in the face of attacks to our communities. One way to do that – is through celebrations of one’s own culture!
Here is a list of our favorite Latinx celebrations coast-to-cast this Summer –
Latin Alternative Music Festival-New York
Latinx who edge toward alternative music styles can enjoy some of the offsite events held by LAMF, the biggest event for cutting-edge Latin music held in New York City, July 9 – 13th.
AfroLatino Festival – New York
Held in Brooklyn, New York…one the biggest by scale celebrations of Afro-Latinidad. Cultural awareness and social justice are at the root of the Afro-Latino Festival. Going strong since 2013, expect programming to be off-the-hook as usual, July 12-13th.
