Javier Milei afirmó: “Todos los que hicieron acuerdo con el Fondo y que se quejaron del modo y la masterclass que le metimos a la política, porque esperaban que no lo pudiéramos pasar por el Congreso. Empezaron a llorar los ñoños republicanos. No me importa, juego dentro de la ley, soy bilardista y dentro de la cancha vale todo. Que la vayan a buscar, la tienen adentro”. “Yo no vengo a llorar, sino que el problema más grave fue esa estupidez de ley que sacó el imbécil infradotado de Guzmán que obliga a pasar un programa del FMI por el Congreso. Es decir, el lugar donde están los degenerados fiscales”, agregó el presidente.Milei sostuvo: “Mientras que permanecíamos callados y los imbéciles de los periodistas decían que no hablábamos porque estábamos asustados… no hablábamos porque no podíamos dar información. Son los enemigos de los argentinos los que lucraron con este modelo empobrecedor. Los empresarios prebendarios, políticos corruptos, periodistas ensobrados, sindigarcas o los profesionales funcionales a este conjunto de hijos de puta que cagaron el país”.Manuel Adorni dijo: “El asesor Caputo sacó una foto porque quería saber quién era el periodista porque quería ver si había salido bien o no en la foto. Me parece que está bien. A mi, sin quererlo, me empujaron y me golpearon y entiendo que esas situaciones son muy desordenadas. Era un ámbito donde había mucha gente y desorganización a la entrada. Fue una situación muy incómoda para todos pero la intención de Santiago era ver como habían salido las fotos”.Jorge Macri aseguró: “Vi lo que esperaba ver de Santoro. Es alguien que está en el kirchnerismo pero no te habla de los kirchneristas. Vi un Adorni haciendo su tarea de representar a Karina Milei en la Ciudad pero sin pasión por la tarea que tiene que llevar adelante. De Horacio me llamó la atención cuando dijo que quería ser jefe de gobierno. Era un debate de legisladores. De Horacio me parece que habló mucho y la palabra que más repitió fue “yo, yo, yo””. “Chicanas de la elección no me ofenden, me ofende la mentira. Horaciou dijo muchas veces “cero obras”. La obra de Marcos Paz la estamos haciendo porque la dejó de hacer él. El puente de la calle Ciudad de la Paz. Dos años diciendo que no se podía hacer. En el primer año nuestro hicimos más obras que en el último suyo. En los dos últimos años se distrajo tanto con la campaña nacional que tiene una memoria que quedó como vieja”, agregó el jefe de Gobierno porteño.Noticias del jueves 1 de mayo por María O'Donnell y equipo de De Acá en Más por Urbana Play 104.3 FMSeguí a De Acá en Más en Instagram y XUrbana Play 104.3 FM.

This time in my hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Now, for those who are unaware, here's a bit of background and history about the organization as featured on the official NACCS website. “The Association was first named the National Caucus of Chicano Social Scientists from 1972-1973. After the Caucus's first meeting November 17, 1973, at the University of California at Irvine, the members of the steering committee unanimously voted to change the name to the National Association of Chicano Social Scientists (NACSS).In 1976, during the 3rd NACSS Conference participates voted to rename the organization to the National Association for Chicano Studies (NACS).In 1995 during the National Conference in Spokane, Washington, the body unanimously voted to change the name from the National Association for Chicano Studies to the National Association for Chicana and Chicano Studies (NACCS).”Its stated mission, once again from the website is:“To advance the interest and needs of the Chicana and Chicano community. To advance research in Chicana and Chicano Studies. To advance the professional interest and needs of Chicanas and Chicanos in the academy.”Now, I found it interesting that the very first sentence of the NACCS's mission statement is to advance the interests and needs of the Chicana and Chicano community. because I, like most members of the Chicana and Chicano community here in Albuquerque, had no idea whatsoever that the conference was even happening in my own city. And not only that, but when I did hear about the conference, I looked into the registration process thinking that I might participate, only to find that the cost of registering for the conference was far too expensive for your average community member. Now with this in mind, I sat down with Dr. Ernesto Todd Mireles of Northern Arizona University and author Scott Russell Duncan of Maiz Poppin Press, Both of whom were in town to attend the conference.Your Host:Kurly Tlapoyawa is an archaeologist, ethnohistorian, and filmmaker.

"Joy Power and Pride"Brian Chavez, from the Historical Society of Long Beach, joins us today to share his thoughts and reflections on the new exhibit titled "Centro de la Raza: John A. Taboada's Photo Legacy 1970-1985." John's exhibit captures the Chicano Movement in Long Beach and the community work of Centro de la Raza through a beautiful collection of over 3,000 meticulously preserved photos. John's artistry will continue to have an impact on multiple generations to come.*This exhibit holds immense significance for me. As a teenager, I had the privilege of working at Centro de la Raza, where I was mentored by numerous Chicano students and leaders, including John Taboada.I want to personally thank all of the Chicanas and Chicanos during this time for their incredible efforts to provide services, art and programs for the Long Beach Community. Their efforts forever changed the trajectory of my life and career.HealthCare UnTold also thanks, the Chicano Six, a group of civil rights activists, who partnered with the Long Beach Historical Society to curate this exhibition. Ron and Phyllis Arias, Carmen Perez, Armando Vasques-Ramos, Margie Rodriguez, and Theresa Marino, they have worked tirelessly to honor the legacy of Centro de la Raza and John Taboada beautiful photos,Que Viva La Raza*Photo courtesy of the Historical Society of Long Beach#hslb.org#chicanomovement

This Throwback Thursday we revisit Episode 16 of the podcast, where we talk about the various attacks on Chicano Indigeneity, and ways we can counter them!Chicano Indigeneity Sadly, the latest online trend within the “woke” and “Latinx” crowd is to relentlessly attack Chicanas and Chicanos who identify as Indigenous. Given the fact that being Indigenous is a cornerstone of Chicana-Chicano identity (and is manifested in our culture, language, traditions, ancestry, systems of kinship, and our connections to the land), I find such attacks…curious to say the least.The basic argument goes something like this: Chicanas, Chicanos, and Chicanx folks did not grow up in traditional Indigenous communities, and therefore can only call themselves “Indigenous descendants” and not actual “Indigenous people.” Apparently, there is only one “authentic” Indigenous lived experience, regardless of how history has played out for the Mesoamerican diaspora. This bizarre bit of wordplay ignores the entirety of Chicana-Chicano history and reeks of identity policing at its worst. Interestingly, this assault on Chicana-Chicano Indigenous identity is practically identical to right-wing talking points that seek to deny Chicana-Chicanos our Indigenous cultural inheritance.It is certainly unfortunate that a handful of “latinxers” and Indigenous gatekeepers have taken it upon themselves to police Indigenous identity as it relates to the Chicano communityt. In doing so, they are sowing deep divisions among people who should be working together. And quite frankly, I think their argument just isn't very well thought out.In this episode we defend Chicano Indigeneity from such attacks.Your Hosts:Kurly Tlapoyawa is an archaeologist, ethnohistorian, and filmmaker.

Growing up in Denver, Colorado, Kali Fajardo-Anstine did not see herself, nor her family, represented in books or television. But, she knew she wanted to be a writer. Kali is a mixed Chicana woman with Indigenous and Filipino ancestry; she brings all of that into her work in hopes of creating a space where readers feel represented and seen. Kali is also the author of “Sabrina and Corina,” a collection of short stories that explore the lives of Chicanos and Chicanas in and around Dever, and she recently released her debut novel, “Woman of Light.” In this episode of Latino USA, Kali talks about how her life experiences and identity blend into her work and how she's honoring her ancestors from the American West through her writing.

I've had a chance to reflect on my 23 years of teaching, and I've been reminded to consider the role that Chicana/o/x Education has played in my life. When I came into teaching, and declared myself to be a Chicano teacher, some looked at me quizzically, wondering aloud, "Is that still a thing? Do people still identify as Chicanos?" Later I read a quote by some journalist declaring that "Chicano" is only used by old guys who have handshakes and reminisce about the past. Welp, thanks to stickin' around so long, I have seen a renacimiento of the Chicana/o/x name. Not that we ever went anywhere, but there is a new generation of Chicanas and Chicanos entering the teaching profession, but unlike me, the show up as their authentic selves. I hope you enjoy this Chicana roundtable with Isabel Barajas de Benavidez, Emely Contreras, and Diana Bustamante Aguilar, three early-service teachers who are proudly and uncompromisingly CHICANAS...and who are connecting with each other for the first time.

Since the rise of the Chicano Movement in the late 60s and early 70s, Chicano artists have used a variety of mediums to express historical counter-narratives, encourage political activism, and educate communities. Unsurprisingly, Chicano artists have continued this legacy of Chicanismo into today's contemporary artistic and political movements—taking the moment to express political autonomy, cultural solidarity, and pride in being of Indigenous descent. Among the many artists continuing this proud legacy is Jake Prendez, a 45-year-old Chicano painter hailing from Seattle, Washington. Jake Prendez is the creator of a series of popular oil painting portraits, and he is also the Co-Director of the Nepantla Cultural Center in the neighborhood of White center Seattle. During our discussion, we talk with Jake about his upbringing in the Seattle area, the struggle to culturally thrive at a time when Seattle and many cities like it had very little representation in regard to Chicanos and other Latinos, and also his political awakening and desire to create art that pulls on cultural triggers to elicit a response from his audience. Throughout our conversation, you will notice various reoccurring themes and parallels from Jake's journey to that of other Chicanos and Chicanas. Themes of being forced to move to a new place and never quite fitting in, experiencing cultural and political awakenings in high school, and continuing on into college. As well as the pursuit of deferred dreams and ambition later in life compared to other fellow creatives. All of this and so much is coming up so without further ado we present to you our conversation with the one and only Jake Prendez!

Hola, bienvenidos, and welcome to the Latinx Identity ProjectThis is a podcast where we tell stories for us and by usI am your host, Elsa Iris ReyesToday's guest is Dr. Danitza BorgesDr. Danitza Borges holds a Ph.D. in Human Sexuality.  As a Clinical Sexologist she works with a wide variety of individuals providing counseling on relationships, trauma, sexual abuse and assault, and gender identity.   Dr. Borges' approach to counseling involves engaging with her clients to develop the necessary skills to build healthy relationships through self-discovery and couple collaboration, teaching strategies to reduce anxieties and triggers created by trauma, guiding clients toward personal healing, and navigating the complexities of gender identification, acceptance, and transitioning. She recently completed her memoir, Left Vulnerable, describing her own experiences with childhood incest.  Dr. Borges has spoken at sexual awareness events as well as on high school and college campuses.Today's episode is special. I want to pause here in case you are not ready to hear this conversation or are uncomfortable with the topic of childhood rape and incest, in which case, please skip this episode. Our conversation today is meant to raise awareness and encourage others to speak up. My hope as someone who was sexually abused as a child is that no one else will have to go through the silent pain I endured. We tend to keep these things hidden out of shame, fear, or pressure to seem functional. I truly believe that opening up dialogue can help us understand the causes for abuse and ways to prevent it. In part of the episode We will discuss forgiveness and the complex relationships we have with our abusers. You may not agree with everything said and that is ok. We all have different experiences and perspectives on this issue.I want to thank Danitza for reaching out. Danitza, you are an inspiration. Thanks and enjoy the show.Check out the F Word Project on Instagram @fwordprojectPurchase Left Vulnerable on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Left-Vulnerable-Danitza-Borges/dp/1978114710If you liked this episode, please share it!

Des and Em get frisky during social isolation and dish about what it's like to renegotiate physical boundaries when you are moving on from a breakup. LINKS! Chicanas, Cholas, y Chisme: https://www.instagram.com/chicanascholasychisme/ Chani Nicholas, "You Were Born For This": https://chaninicholas.com/you-were-born-for-this/ adrienne maree brown, "Pleasure Activism": https://www.amazon.com/Pleasure-Activism-Politics-Emergent-Strategy-ebook/dp/B07CBCZSCY About Mejor Sola: Des and Em are two Latinx female-identifying storytellers who love deeply...and have had their hearts broken by others. Growing up, there are frameworks for love that are heavily shaped by machismo, religion, culture, and tradition. This kind of love is tied to sacrifice and service. Learning love in this way has made it extremely challenging to make space for self-love and platonic love - love that fuels us and brings us joy and not simply for others. Love for ourselves. Most of all, a love that does not require self-sacrifice in order to be celebrated.

Eugenics 3 of 4. In 1968, researchers found that one-third of all Puerto Rican women of childbearing age were surgically sterilized. This ignited the U.S. reproductive rights movement and the political demand to end forced sterilization in Puerto Rico. However, Puerto Rican women's reproduction has been tied to identity and nationalism since the United States assumed governance of Puerto Rico in 1898. Latin-x have a long and complex history with birth control and surgical sterilization. Chicanas and puertorriquenas have been subjected episodically to unwanted sterilizations in state institutions and public clinics while also struggling to access safe and affordable birth control, including surgical sterilization.

The Album: "Mosquita Y Mari" soundtrack (2012) Aurora Guerrero is a Chicana filmmaker whose 2012 sweet coming-of-age story about two young Chicanas falling in love in Huntington Park was hit at Sundance that year. The Hollywood Reporter called it "...a robust work of self-discovery for two girls at the most awkward and confusing years of their young lives, and a testament to Aurora Guerrero's storytelling prowess." Traditions and emotions merge as the Yolanda and Mari's relationship grows intensely over time. The narrative is underscored by a gorgeous soundtrack - the sound of East Los Angeles' eclectic underground music scene featuring indie artists across genres: ska, punk and hip hop with bands like Mexico 72, Pistolero, Viernes 13 and La Pobreska. We sat with Aurora to talk about her curation process, the music vibe of Huntington Park, what falling in love sounds like when you're 15 and how Mosquita Y Mari put Southeast L.A. on the map in a new way.

Det är mitten av 1990-talet och Gladys, en 17-årig flicka från gängens Los Angeles, försöker ändra sitt liv från tung kriminalitet till något slags normalitet. "Vi får Gladys liv just då, just där och det är ett liv som balanserar på flera gränser: Förhållandet till familjen, pojkvännen och morbror gangstern och det hela tiden närvarande våldet och döden. Få författare skulle kunna dikta mer rafflande och framför allt nära."Så skrev Johan Berggren i sin recension i DN när Down Krazy Chikanas av Carmilla Floyd sändes i radio 1998.Carmilla Floyd är själv född i Los Angeles och uppvuxen i Stockholm. I drygt tre års tid följde hon några ungdomar och deras familjer i East Los Angeles. Vilken roll spelar flickorna och kvinnorna i gängens värld? Är de passiva, slåss de på lika villkor eller låter de männen slåss åt dem?Varför har just Los Angeles blivit gängens huvudstad i världen och dessutom en av USA:s mest segregerade städer? Det är några av de frågor som Carmilla Floyd har sökt svaret på.Återresan 2010! Carmilla försöker få tag på Gladys på telefonCarmilla Floyds bok "Respekt" ett reportage från gängens och våldets Los Angeles skrevs samtidigt som hon arbetade med sin radiodomkumentär. Boken nominerades till 1998 år Augustpris i kategorin Årets svenska fackbok .Foto: Carmilla FloydGladys och Gabriel på första ultraljudet

“Chi siamo noi chicanos? Essere chicano è un’identità. In origine implicava discendenza messicana, probabile residenza in California, impegno politico a favore degli indigeni e, in molti casi, l’essere un’attivista sociale, lavorare a programmi educativi come attivista politico o come leader nei campi, lottando per i diritti dei lavoratori. Oggi, anche se implica la coscienza politica e indigena, non è necessario essere residenti in California e oso dire che nemmeno serva del tutto essere messicano per essere chicano. Si tratta, come ho detto, di una identità, un modo di percepire l’impegno sociale per il benessere delle comunità latine negli Stati Uniti”. Xánath Caraza

There was a time when “history” was the history of powerful people. Shakespeare captures this notion of history in the prologue to Henry V: O for a Muse of fire, that would ascend The brightest heaven of invention, A kingdom for a stage, princes to act And monarchs to behold the swelling scene! Then and for centuries afterward, princes were deemed the proper focus of the historical investigations. The history of history from about 1950 to the present has largely been one of “democratizing” that view of the past. Princes are still given their due, but now a host of previously invisible people are as well. In the hands of social historians, butchers, bakers, candlestick makers, male and female, European and non-European have all been given a written history. Our guest today, Vicki Ruiz, is one of the pioneers in this effort. Her path-breaking From Out of the Shadows: Mexican Women in Twentieth-Century America (Oxford UP, 1998; Tenth Anniversary Edition, 2008) shed light on the lives of one of these invisible groups for the first time. Through interviews and extensive documentary investigation, Vicki does a masterful job reconstructing the experiences of immigrant women who have gone by many names–Mexicanas, Tejanas, Chicanas, Hispanas among them. She describes in vivid detail how they negotiated the life passages of school, marriage, motherhood, and work while trying to balance the forces of assimilation and tradition. Though the book is about Mexican women, the theme resonates with the American immigrant experience more generally. Their story is our story. Read From Out of the Shadows and find out how.
