In this week’s episode, la comadre Jennifer sets up the table. We dive into language used for ethnic and racial identification. We have all heard terms like hispanic, latina, latinos, latinx, latinidad, mestiza, mestizo, latine and other terms. We have all heard these terms and have different relationships with the terms, do we reimagine, reclaim or abandon?
