Still Making Headlines. Still Breaking Barriers.
From launching El Latino in her garage to creating the largest Spanish-language women’s empowerment conference in the U.S., Fanny Miller has built a media empire rooted in purpose, comunidad, and unapologetic resilience.

Honoring a Legend!
Civil rights icon Dolores Huerta will receive the 2025 HPRA President’s Award this November, a lifetime of activism, truth-telling, and unapologetic community power.

At 95, she’s still showing up for immigrant rights, labor justice, and our collective dignity.
Because "Sí, se puede" wasn’t just a slogan. It’s a call to action.

If your Hispanic Heritage Month ends on October 15…
it was never about us.

🧡 Cultura doesn’t expire. Our stories don’t fit in a box. And our identities aren’t seasonal trends.

Don’t just celebrate us. Invest in us.
Every. Single. Day.

Latino voices aren’t “trendy.”
We’ve always been here. We’re not going anywhere.
And we’re not watering it down for anyone.

📢 This is VOZ NYC.
Not your “diversity checkbox.”

🎬 VOZ FILM FRIDAY

I Like It Like That (1994)
Dir. Darnell Martin

📍Set in the Bronx, this classic follows Lisette (Lauren Vélez), a young Puerto Rican mother trying to find herself, and her independence, while navigating love, chaos, and culture.

It’s messy. It’s loud. It’s beautiful.
And it’s one of the first major studio films directed by a Latina filmmaker.

Co-starring Rita Moreno, Jon Seda, and Jesse Borrego.
A Nuyorican anthem.

La Cultura Que Importa: La Chancleta 🩴
She was always there. Hanging by the door. Sitting on the counter. Flying across the room like a heat-seeking missile.

La chancleta isn’t just a sandal.
It’s a symbol. A warning. A love language our ancestors may never admit. 😂

From Puerto Rico to Colombia, she’s iconic.
Respect her. Fear her. Pass her down.
