ENOUGH IS ENOUGH Latinos are an important part of our industry. Time to represent us! https://www.hollywoodreporter.com//latinx-writers-showrunn

Let's tune in and support! Mondays on CBS "Broadcast TV is ready for a Latina family. Justina Machado is here to prove it." #createyouravenida #onedayatatime #odaat https://zcu.io/tZ9i

There's a lot of work to be done! "Latinos and Hispanics remain significantly underrepresented despite being one of the fastest-growing demographics in the country. This news comes after Latino-fronted shows like The Baker and the Beauty, Vida and most recently, United We Fall were canceled." https://zcu.io/xXPu

It's Hispanic Heritage Month. Watch some of these films to celebrate! "But border-crossing stories or those set in Latin America don’t fill the void created by the lack of American Latino narratives. They don’t reflect the lives of, say, Chicanos in California, Tejanos in rural Texas or Nuyoricans in the Bronx specific identities that have faced oppression in the United States. " #createyouravenida #latincinema https://zcu.io/v8lA
