In many Latino households, pain is something you power through—quietly. You work hard, you don't complain, and you certainly don't stop to heal. But what happens when your body forces you to listen? Jackie Hernandez was raised to hustle, to push, to handle her shit—until grief and a chronic illness brought everything to a halt. Instead of giving in, she turned her healing into her purpose—and built a wellness empire one green juice at a time.In this episode, I'm joined by Jackie Hernandez, a wellness entrepreneur, public health advocate, and co-franchisee of two Nekter Juice Bars and an EggBred breakfast concept in Whittier, California. Jackie holds a Master's in Health Administration from USC and spent years shaping obesity prevention and health equity policy at the local and federal levels. A proud Latina raised in Boyle Heights, she draws deep inspiration from her grandfather—a former Bracero worker and activist—who instilled in her the power of education, purpose, and resilience. Tune in to Episode 234 of Amiga, Handle Your Shit, and prepare to hear one of the most inspiring transformations ever shared on the show. You'll follow Jackie's journey from high-impact policy work to battling a debilitating autoimmune disease, and how green juice—and grief—ultimately changed the course of her life. Her healing journey became a springboard into entrepreneurship, rooted in her mission to combat food deserts and uplift her community. Through her wellness businesses, Jackie now empowers others—especially Latinas—to embrace holistic health, pursue their dreams, and handle life with grit and grace. She is also working on a series of children's books that blend healthy habits with cultural pride, continuing her commitment to impact the next generation.Episode Takeaways:A childhood shaped by family separation and cultural pride (2:00)The power of a grandfather's words (7:20)Translating for grandma at age 9 (13:00)Fighting big food as a Latina lobbyist (18:40)Flat tires, vandalism, and burnout (25:00)Losing her father—and her health (31:20)Healing with green juice and holistic medicine (37:00)Turning pain into purpose: Launching Nekter (42:30)Books, business, and handling your sh*t (48:00)Connect with Jackie Hernandez:LinkedInInstagramLet's Connect!WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInJackie Tapia Arbonne websiteBuy The Amiga Way's Book Hosted on Acast.

Almost 900,000 workers passed through Rio Vista as part of the Bracero Program. Fronteras talks to two individuals who have fought to keep this important chapter of history from being forgotten.

A Center for Immigration Studies report and companion podcast episode, “Can U.S. Farm Workers be Replaced by Machines? Mechanizing Fruit and Vegetable Production,” provide historical context as well as analysis of current challenges and prospects for farm labor and mechanization. Both the report and the discussion explain the options available to replace U.S. farm workers - machines, H-2A guestworkers, and imports.The report outlines how rising labor costs have historically driven the adoption of mechanization in agriculture. It traces the evolution of farm mechanization, from the end of the Bracero program in the 1960s to the present day, highlighting pivotal moments such as the enactment of the Immigration and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA). IRCA supporters promised that legalized farm workers would demand higher wages, and that farm employers would have to raise wages and improve working conditions to retain legalized workers or hire H-2A guestworkers. But this did not happen, partly due to massive fraud.Philip Martin, professor emeritus of Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of California at Davis and author of the report, discusses how once legalized the workers left the fields for other employment and were replaced by new illegal workers. Since the passing of IRCA, which legalized more than one million illegal farm workers, the debate over the pay and work conditions of those in the fields and the role of mechanization has persisted.Martin emphasizes the pivotal role of government policies in impacting the growth of mechanization through labor-saving research, the cost of farm workers, and imports. The Farm Workforce Modernization Act (FWMA), approved by the U.S. House in March 2021 and re-introduced in July 2023, is the most recent legislation debated and repeats the IRCA bargain – legalization of illegal farmworkers for easier access to H-2A guestworkers.There is a race between labor-saving machines and migrant H-2A workers playing out amidst rising imports. Higher labor costs accelerate investments in machines to replace workers and spur government and private efforts to develop new farming systems, biological and engineering breakthroughs, and supply chain adjustments to accelerate labor-saving mechanization.Martin stresses, “Research, migration, and trade policies will help to determine whether workers or machines pick U.S. apples and oranges in 2030.”In his closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, the Center's executive director and podcast host, highlights President Biden's false claim that he does not have the authority to control the border and action from Congress is required. Political vulnerability is now forcing him to control the massive numbers entering the country.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestPhilip Martin is Professor Emeritus of Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of California at Davis.RelatedCan U.S. Farm Workers Be Replaced By Machines?Bracero 2.0: Mexican Workers in North American AgricultureBiden's New Border Plan Shows ‘I Can't Do Anything' Was Always A LieFollowFollow Parsing Immigration Policy on Ricochet, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

Produced by KSQD 90.7FM, 89.5 & 89.7FM When Policing the Border, Cruelty is the Point! “Be Bold America!” Sunday, January 14, 2024 at 5:00pm (PT) “Because whatever has happened to humanity, whatever is currently happening to humanity, it is happening to all of us. No matter how hidden the cruelty, no matter how far off the screams of pain and terror, we live in one world.” – Alice Walker It is time for the United States Border Patrol to experience an unflinching analysis of its actions because it is riddled with corruption, racism, and misogyny. There is an ugly underbelly and, today, Jenn Budd is the most important voice exposing what most of us never see about immigration enforcement in the United States. Jenn is raw and truthful and no one escapes judgment … not even herself.  Jenn searches deep within herself to examine her own prejudices as a white, southerner and the role she played as a border patrol agent. Her book, “Against the Wall: My Journey from Border Patrol Agent to Immigrant Rights Activist” challenges us, as individuals and as a nation, to face the consequences of our actions.  She also gives harrowing testimony about rape culture, white privilege, women and law-enforcement, LGBTQ issues, mental illness, survival and forgiveness.    Interview Guest:  Jenn Budd was a Senior Patrol Agent with the US Border Patrol in San Diego, a Senior Intelligence Agent at San Diego Sector Headquarters and an Acting Supervisory Border Patrol Agent from 1995 to 2001 when she resigned in protest due to the rampant corruption and brutality she witnessed on a daily basis. After nearly 30 years of border experience on both sides of the issues, she came to the realization that our immigration policies have created an intentional brutal system that in her opinion resembles a slow-moving genocide for asylum seekers.    Jenn is the author of the acclaimed memoir "Against the Wall: My Journey From Border Patrol Agent to Immigrant Rights Activist" The book was selected as a finalist in Publishing Triangle's prestigious Randy Shilts Award, and received an Honorable mention in the Los Angeles Book festival Awards.   She is often quoted and consulted on Border Patrol articles for outlets such as The New York Times, Newsweek, The Nation, The Guardian, Washington Post, Daily Koz, NPR, Telemundo, CNN, Politico, Mother Jones, John Oliver, Samantha Bee and recently featured in "The Nation" Dec 25, 2023 - January 1, 2024 Issue. She can also be found in the halls of Congress speaking with members on humane immigration policies.    Guest Cohost: Blanca Zarazua, ESQ. Blanca Zarazúa's father, Aquilino, came to the United States in 1945 when he began working as a Bracero or guest worker in Chualar, California.  Ms. Zarazua maintains her own law practice in Monterey County, California and has been in practice since 1987. Ms. Zarazúa is now representing individuals and families with respect to immigration law matters.     She is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association and has served on the board of the Latin America District Chapter which serves Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. In 2003 Ms. Zarazúa was honored with a lifetime appointment by Mexico's former President Vicente Fox to serve as Honorary Consul of Mexico for Monterey and Santa Cruz counties.  She earned an MBA from UC Berkeley; a JD from Santa Clara University; and an LLM from Golden Gate University.  She has completed studies in Oxford, England; Rome, Italy; and Guadalajara, Mexico.

In this episode of Latino USA, historian Mireya Loza and her uncle and former bracero Juan Loza meet at his home in Chicago to reflect on the legacy of the long-running and controversial labor Bracero Program and its impact on their family.

In this short episode of Talking Hoosier History, we'll discuss the Mexican bracero workers who came to Indiana during WWII, how Hoosiers welcomed them (or didn't), and how the braceros helped the U.S. meet wartime agricultural needs. We'll also get a glimpse of how the Bracero Program established immigration patterns that remain relevant today. Written and produced by Jill Weiss Simins. Performed by Justin Clark.

Quizás no tenemos el beach body ready para este verano, pero sí venimos bien preña'os de temas. Esta semana hablamos de los nenes que se perdieron en la selva de Colombia, -y que a diferencia de los blandengues turistas que se desaparecen en El Yunque-, los chamaquitos pudieron sobrevivir sin necesidad de un adulto. Un representante de Barranquitas sube un audio lleno de insultos, ofensas y cagás de madre, como típica conversación de una pareja normal; el crecío de Manny Manuel le dice “güelebicho” a Jowell y pide ooootro boicot a Kobbo, y Bracero le recuerda a los pela'os de la UTIER que él ya no está pa'l atraso porque está en un nuevo capítulo de su vida. Además, Noris Joffre nos recuerda que las mujeres maduras también levantan erecci0nes, mientras que Jay Fonseca una vez más quiere ser “la víStima” para mantener el engagement y los likes de las doñas en el Feis. Recuerda: si te ofendes, eso no es problema de nosotros. ¡Desde GW-Cinco, esto es #LaHoraMachorra!

In the 1940s, the Bracero program was an agreement between the United States and Mexico that brought millions of migrant workers the United States. Many families settled in Central and Eastern Washington during this time, working in fields while U.S. servicemen were drafted abroad. Raul Sanchez's father was one of those workers, and the influence of American culture, tangled with Sanchez's Mexican roots, is a point of inspiration for his poetry.We can only make Soundside because listeners support us.

Abandoning Their Beloved Land: The Politics of Bracero Migration in Mexico (U California Press, 2023) offers an essential new history of the Bracero Program, a bilateral initiative that allowed Mexican men to work in the United States as seasonal contract farmworkers from 1942 to 1964. Using national and local archives in Mexico, historian Alberto García uncovers previously unexamined political factors that shaped the direction of the program, including how officials administered the bracero selection process and what motivated campesinos from central states to migrate. Notably, García's book reveals how and why the federal government's delegation of Bracero Program-related responsibilities, the powerful influence of conservative Catholic opposition groups in central Mexico, and the failures of the revolutionary agrarian reform all profoundly influenced the program's administration and individual decisions to migrate as braceros. Rachel Grace Newman is a historian of modern Mexico with particular interests in migration, childhood and youth studies, and social inequality.

It's a deeply moving portrait of her grandfather, Julian Moreno, the patriarch of her family, and serves as a beautiful tribute to his legacy.During World War II, Julian Moreno came to the US as a seasonal agricultural worker as part of the Bracero Program, later returning to his home in Mexico to start a family.  Sadly, Julian was widowed at an early age with seven children to raise. Iliana's mother was the first of his children to immigrate to the US, leaving Mexico at the age of 14 to go to El Paso, where she eventually met Iliana's father. In the subsequent years, Iliana's grandfather frequently took the bus from his home in Durango, Mexico to Iliana's home in El Paso, then on to Albuquerque to visit other relatives. His visits were always brief so that he could return home to care for his adult son with a disability.Iliana's initial plan was to make a documentary film about her grandfather's time as a bracero, but as in many documentaries, the story takes a twist. The film chronicles his journey of constructing a house in Mexico at the age of 89, and the larger message of what that project meant for him and his family. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Castbox, or on your favorite podcast platform.Topics Covered:●      A brief synopsis of What We Leave Behind and why Iliana pursued this project ●      How Iliana's relationship with her grandfather changed over the course of filming ●      Coming to terms with aging and things left undone at the end of your life ●      The importance of family connection, particularly one with members on both sides of the US-Mexico border●      How capturing everyday life naturally crafted the storyline and portrait of Iliana's grandfather  Guest Info:●      Watch What We Leave Behind on Netflix ●      Iliana Sosa's Website Follow Me:●      My Instagram ●      My LinkedIn●      My Twitter●      Art Heals All Wounds Website●      Art Heals All Wounds Instagram●      Art Heals All Wounds Twitter ●      Art Heals All Wounds Facebook●      Art Heals All Wounds Newsletter

Our immigration system is broken. So is the way we talk about it.Most conversations about immigration come down to a yes-or-no debate. Two sides talking over each other with very little constructive and achievable propositions. That might be part of the reason that little effective reform has made its way through Congress in the past 20 years, despite calls from both Democrats and Republicans for an overhaul.In reality, immigration is a complicated system and there's no easy answer to the problems it entails. This week, Jane Coaston breaks down one group of approaches that could have a significant impact on individuals and families who want to enter the United States: temporary work programs.These programs allow migrants to come to the United States to work based on the labor needs of certain industries. And because their legal status is tied to employment, workers are beholden to their bosses and the companies that hire them. Oftentimes, the companies use that power to take advantage of workers.The guests today analyze these programs and debate whether they should be expanded without other changes or what reforms are necessary to ensure workers aren't exploited. Michael Clemens is an economist and the director of migration, displacement and humanitarian policy at the Center for Global Development. Daniel Costa is a human rights lawyer and the director of immigration law and policy research at the Economic Policy Institute.Mentioned in this episode:Daniel Costa's paper “Temporary Migrant Workers or Immigrants?

El libro Diplomacia Migratoria: Una historia transnacional del Programa Bracero, 1947-1952 (Ciudad de México: Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas- Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores, 2017) presenta un análisis de la política bilateral que reguló la migración mexicana laboral, especialmente en la época de la renegociación del Programa Bracero, entre 1947 y 1952. El estudio de las discusiones diplomáticas que propiciaron el mantenimiento del programa después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial se llevó a cabo en diversas escalas y de manera transnacional, considerando los contextos político, económico y social de México y Estados Unidos durante la posguerra. Al examinar las realidades de dos entidades directamente afectadas por el plan, se buscó ilustrar la manera en que el Programa Bracero contribuyó a la consolidación de la inmigración mexicana legal y de la corriente ilegal que la acompañó. Uno de estos estados, Guanajuato, figuró entre los principales productores de migrantes durante la época y su relación política y económica fue tensa con el gobierno del presidente Miguel Alemán (1946-1952). California, el principal consumidor de esta inmigración temporal legal, es el otro estado en el que observamos la dinámica de los intereses involucrados en el pacto laboral. Esta imbricación entre los distintos niveles de análisis es crucial para comprender el proceso de elaboración, negociación y aplicación del Programa Bracero, una de las experiencias migratorias más significativas entre estos dos países y que no se ha visto desde entonces.

Los apagones en Puerto Rico se han convertido en el pan nuestro de cada día. En un ciclo de un mes de servicio eléctrico puede que usted haya pasado por tres o hasta cuatro apagones, algunos de poco tiempo y otros de largas horas. Lo que no falla es la factura de la luz que cada vez viene más alta, pero el costo de lo que usted paga por la luz no se traduce en un mejor servicio eléctrico. Por el contrario, usted paga más por las ineficiencias del sistema ahora dividido entre la Autoridad de Energía Eléctrica y LUMA. En este episodio del podcast Con Los Editores abordamos las dos vertientes: por un lado los apagones y la inestabilidad del servicio con el influencer empleado de la AEE, Jorge Bracero. Por el otro, hablamos sobre las quejas de los consumidores que cada vez pagan más por un peor servicio con la directora ejecutiva de la Oficina Independiente de Protección al Consumidor, la licenciada, Hannia Rivera Díaz. Sobre los apagones, en lo que resta de semana nadie los despinta, pero de cara a septiembre la fragilidad del sistema plantea una gran interrogante sobre cómo enfrentaríamos un huracán. Además, Bracero aborda el tema de la culpa por los apagones y si se está allanando el camino para culminar la privatización de la parte de generación en la AEE. Mientras que sobre las facturas, Rivera Díaz explica cómo se desglosan los costos operacionales incluidos en el pago de la luz y por qué terminamos pagando alto la ineficiencia de la AEE y/o LUMA. Así mismo, explica el rol de su oficina en la defensa de los consumidores y cómo intentan mejorar la comunicación en medio de los apagones. Precisamente sobre comunicación, Bracero nos reveló que en dos instancias el gobierno le hizo acercamientos para integrarlo en las comunicaciones de la corporación pública, pero un requisito de censura previa bloqueó esa posibilidad. Aún así, este empleado de la AEE mantiene abierta la comunicación con miles de clientes desesperados por conocer la realidad del sistema eléctrico de Puerto Rico y cómo les afecta. Escucha aquí este interesante diálogo.

It is very difficult to make any real change in your finances in terms of wealth building if the total income number you're working with in your budget doesn't grow. Increasing income is essential for building wealth. Side hustles are an excellent way to start increasing income and learning how to generate income on your own. And for immigrants, side hustles are also an act of resistance. Listen to this episode to hear more about why. Sneak peek - part of it comes down to resisting the way immigrants have been historically treated as cheap labor under U.S. immigration policy. This image is of people who were part of the Bracero program, which was a policy that allowed the U.S. to use Mexican immigrants for labor when labor supply was low and then swiftly deport them when no longer needed. Much of immigration law has been built on this foundation. We discuss further in the episode how learning how to generate income on your own is a way to build power in direct resistance. Are you ready to start increasing income and building wealth? We would love help you strategize about an online business side hustle that can help you increase income.
