Ep.3 – Latinx NYC Meet up & Review of Latin History for Morons
Where else you can listen, cause we are EVERYWHERE!
This week, Joy and Grecia talk about the Latinx NYC Meetup and disrupting the spaces on Broadway and Brunch. Along with their thoughts on John Leguizamo’s one-manshow “Latin History for Morons.” Touching about African erasure & homophobia in Latinx history and teaser to Juana Inez de La Cruz on Netflix. And what is peak wokeness? Are we ever woke enough? And how do we stop ourselves from being the woke-police (cause they really don’t wanna be the woke-police).
Oh and Fangirling to LatinosWhoLunch Podcast that created spaces for Latinx and inspired us to start!!!!

Love the show! Also love that you were critical of the stuff Leguizamo left out of LHFM while still being supportive. It definitely felt like a “Latin History starter course”. Can’t wait until the next episode!

Thank you for your feedback! We tried to because we def need more Latinx people in the arts and want to support those still there while holding ourselves all accountable. It definitely is a starter course for people to start getting hooked and spark that interest to learn more about our history and roots.
