**What is  ?

It's a podcast that we created to have a platform to share the testimonios of our Latina/o/x community.

**Why?

Rosario is a journalist and Nancy an educator and PhD student. Her research and career are centered around capturing our communities' lived experiences and their journeys to achieving their dreams/goals/objectives.

**What we have learned so far from this experience

All of our invitados have had to work really hard to achieve their dreams. They have experienced racism and linguistic discrimination but kept pushing forward. Why? Because they want systemic change, they want to be a part of the change.

So Thank You to all our invitados for allowing us to learn from you and capturing these testimonios that often go unheard. Your testimonios are powerful and full of consejos and conocimiento that we hope can help our community.

We hope to continue capturing these beautiful testimonios and continue to learn from and connect with our community.

We love bringing to light stories that many U.S. Latinos can relate to! Please subscribe to our channel (link in bio) , follow us on Spotify and share our podcast with your friends! Leave a comment down below with a topic you would like us to discuss!
