Fort Bend County, Texas, looks like the America we claim to want: a suburb where Black, White, Asian, and Latinx families share cul-de-sacs, schools, and celebrations. Residents trade dishes, honor one another's traditions, and take pride in their community's diversity. Yet beneath this harmony lies what sociologist Dr. Kiara Wyndham calls "the diversity contract"—an unspoken agreement that racial diversity may be celebrated, but racial inequality must not be named.  Drawing on two years of ethnographic research and more than 150 interviews, Diversityland: Hiding Racial Inequality in an American Suburb (University of California Press, 2026) reveals how the language of inclusion can obscure enduring racial hierarchy. In Fort Bend and communities like it, White advantage adapts to diversity rather than disappearing. Vivid and deeply researched, Diversityland transforms how we understand suburban life and challenges foundational narratives of what racial progress will look like in 21st century America. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Prolific video essayist FD Signifier returns to Bad Faith Pod for a comprehensive analysis of the controversy surrounding left electeds' abandonment of 2020 era policy commitments and principles coined "Woke 1" by New York City Council member Chi Ossé, and made viral by AOC on the Sunday news last weekend. While members of the Platner left have argued that rejecting "woke one" simply means abandoning the excesses of cancel culture and identitarian jargon like "Latinx," several DSA candidates or electeds, from Francesca Hong and William Lawrence to AOC and Zohran Mamdani himself, have explicitly rejected firm BLM-era policy commitments like defund the police. And some, like Lawrence and AOC, even explicitly rejected their DSA affiliation in part or in whole. This brings a question we've been asking for about a year now front and center: Is it worth it to "win" if you have to sacrifice your principles to get there? If Zohran can do such a 180 on defund, how much confidence do we have with respect to his solidarity with Palestine? Why call yourself "socialist" if you're unwilling to stand behind the DSA platform, or if you're going to become an NPYD booster? And how did the left media ecosystem let this happen? Does "winning" within the Democratic party, in fact, help the left? Find Bad Faith on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, and Google Podcasts. Or subscribe to our RSS feed.

Johanny Reyes and I spoke about the reversal of roles, from being cared for to becoming the caregiver often influenced by unspoken rules and misconceptions in Latinx immigrant families. Topics in this segment include the common silence regarding illness, aging, and what support can look like as a caregiver. Johanny shares what it was like as the eldest daughter suddenly stepping into a caregiver role and how she learned to navigate this new identity while processing grief. This episode will be aired in Spanish next week. This episode is dedicated to Johanny's mother, who passed a couple months after we recorded this episode. May her beautiful mami rest so peacefully. About today's guest: Johanny Reyes is a licensed therapist in Florida and Afro-Latina entrepreneur dedicated to promoting mental health and increasing accessibility to mental health resources within Latin, Black and Brown communities including Spanish–speaking and undocumented people.

The pole world is finally being forced to face the truth: if you want a stronger future for pole, you have to center sex workers, not sideline them. NatsHoney and AMD break down what they saw at Pole Convention East, where representation, history, and accountability were on full display.What starts as a recap of an electric event turns into a bigger conversation about who gets celebrated in pole spaces, who gets left out, and what it actually means to build a more honest industry. From disability and Latinx showcases to sex workers showing up everywhere, this episode keeps circling one question - who is pole really for?You'll hear NatsHoney and AMD unpack: Why the event felt different this year, and why that mattered The tension between pole fitness rules and the anarchist spirit of stripping Why sex worker representation inside pole spaces is still not optional A moving reunion with Nicole the Pole and the history behind her signature work How brands like X-Pole, Bees Knees, and The Bar are creating space for lived experience, not just performative inclusion AMD shares interviews with Shaina Cruea, Jinx, Michelle Stanek, Agatha, and others, while NatsHoney brings the perspective of someone who has been tracking pole culture, black representation, and sex worker visibility for years. Together they connect the dots between performance, politics, community, and the fight to keep pole history rooted in the people who built it.This episode also looks ahead to International Pole Dance Day and the urgent need to support sex worker organizations while funding is drying up and the industry keeps expanding. If you care about pole, if you teach pole, if you perform pole, or if you want to understand where this art form really comes from, this conversation belongs on your playlist.Essential listening for anyone who wants more than pretty spins and polished marketing. This is about the people, the labor, the history, and the future of pole.Character count: 2,718 / 4,000Why this works: The hook immediately frames the episode as a high-stakes industry conversation, which is more compelling than a simple event recap. It names the key speakers and guests, highlights concrete takeaways, and creates curiosity around the major tension points: representation, history, and sex worker inclusion.   (00:00) Opening praise for the event and how visible representation changed the atmosphere (01:05) Why seeing sex workers everywhere made this year feel different (02:49) The divide pole culture tried to create between dancers and strippers (03:12) Too many rules, but why event structure still matters (04:23) Recording six interviews at the convention and the work behind them (05:19) A performance dedicated to sex workers and to NatsHoney (07:08) Setting up the format for reacting to each interview clip (13:12) Agatha's performance, stage presence, and costume support from Sway (14:16) Introduction to the Nicole the Pole interview (19:09) NatsHoney on teaching Nicole a signature trick and Black representation in pole (22:54) Nicole the Pole's broader visibility and industry hustle (23:23) Introduction to the Misha from Pole Poise interview (27:27) How Pole Poise was inspired by family, ancestors, and pole as fitness (28:26) Why most studios still do not teach pole history (29:17) Tracing pole history back to the late 1990s and early pioneers (31:01) Bees Knees, The Bar, and hiring strippers as instructors (34:54) Introduction to the Shaina Cruea interview and X-Pole's education shift (43:05) Why lived experience matters more than performative education (45:32) Introduction to the Jinx interview (55:04) Whorephobia, exclusion, and the emotional damage of being pushed out (57:39) Jinx's performance and the power of creative movement (61:31) The Community Shop as affordable gear support for strippers (62:27) Closing that segment and moving into Michelle Stanek (69:51) Meeting people where they are and why the goalpost keeps moving (73:50) Hope for a stronger bridge between pole dancers and sex workers (75:43) International Pole Dance Day and the call to fundraise for sex worker orgs (78:19) Thanks to International Pole Convention and the listeners   All the links: The Community Shop Donate to our work  ⁠YAS Work Instagram⁠ ⁠YAS Work BlueSky⁠ ⁠YAS Work Twitter⁠ ⁠YAS Work Youtube YASStore.Shop

Governor Maura Healey signs legislation ensuring protections for immigrants against ICE, a Latina Power hat sells out after causing a political debate and how are candidates trying to mobilize the Latino vote this fall? It's our Latinx news roundtable!

Josh T. Franco is an artist and art historian from West Texas who believes that art history is made by hand. Cultured Magazine included this creative powerhouse in their 2026 list of 12 Art-World Tastemakers We're Most Excited About. Franco actually wears four creative hats: artist, art historian, curator and new Exec Dir of US Latinx Art Forum. He grew up immersed in the ever-evolving wonderland his grandfather created in his backyard in Marfa, TX, full of eclectic found objects, sculptures and whimsical installations. Franco's current  exhibition, Where I Learned to Look: Art from the Yard, celebrates the foundational role of yards in shaping contemporary art in America. His forthcoming book, Marfa, Marfa: Rasquachismo and Minimalism in Far West Texas, examines minimalism and the aesthetics that artist Donald Judd brought to Marfa … and how these intersect with "rasquachismo," the sensibility of the oppressed in working class Chicano communities. “I am an artist with an art history PhD. My practice investigates the mechanisms by which knowledge moves intergenerationally,” says. Franco. He's been an art historian with the Smithsonian for over ten years, interacting with some of the most treasured documents ever produced by artists across time. “I believe that every work of art is also a work of art history, because every work of art carries the past.” As the new Executive Director  of US Latinx Art Forum, Franco is committed to celebrating and promoting art by US inhabitants of Latinx descent and their communities to foster equity and growth, and support its practitioners. Have a Swan Dive to share?

Border Afterlives: Migrant Deaths, Forensic Investigations, and the Politics of Haunting (University of Arizona Press, 2026) begins with the undocumented individuals who die crossing the U.S.-Mexico border—deaths that are both preventable and politically produced. Moving between the practical and the philosophical, forensic anthropologist and author Gabriella Soto asks what it means to care for the dead and what society owes to those who die in its name. Through the lens of haunting, she explores how the dead continue to shape the living, not as objects of horror but as moral agents whose presence demands justice. Centered primarily in Arizona and South Texas, Border Afterlives offers a border-scale comparative account of forensic practices, critiques the limits of “best practices” in under-resourced systems, and calls for a re-imagining of forensic humanitarianism grounded in reciprocity and dignity, beyond human rights. This is a book that insists on remembering the dead. In this conversation, we discuss the difficult interplay between federal immigration policy and local practices of death care on the border, the implications of policies that cause increased death tolls, the politics of humanitarian immigration reform, and, finally, how allowing ourselves to be haunted by the slow mass casualties of the border can and should inspire us to act. Gabriella Soto is a contemporary archaeologist who examines the material world to understand pressing social issues. Integrating ethnographic methods, GIS technology, and archival research, she specializes in migration materialities, focusing on Latinx migration and security at the US-Mexico border. Her work analyzes the material footprints of transit, forensic death investigations, and security and humanitarian infrastructure. An ACLS fellow whose work has also been funded by the Wenner-Gren Foundation, Soto is a research affiliate at the Binational Migration Institute and holds faculty affiliations at Arizona State University's School of Transborder Studies, School of Interdisciplinary Forensics, and the Latinx Oral History Lab. Her research has appeared in American Anthropologist and Political Geography, and her article on migrant material culture won the American Anthropological Association's Gordon R. Willey Paper Prize. Dr. Soto is the author of Border Afterlives: Migrant Deaths, Forensic Investigations, and the Politics of Haunting (University of Arizona Press, 2026). Learn more about your ad choices.

This is a book that insists on remembering the dead. In this conversation, we discuss the difficult interplay between federal immigration policy and local practices of death care on the border, the implications of policies that cause increased death tolls, the politics of humanitarian immigration reform, and, finally, how allowing ourselves to be haunted by the slow mass casualties of the border can and should inspire us to act. Gabriella Soto is a contemporary archaeologist who examines the material world to understand pressing social issues. Integrating ethnographic methods, GIS technology, and archival research, she specializes in migration materialities, focusing on Latinx migration and security at the US-Mexico border. Her work analyzes the material footprints of transit, forensic death investigations, and security and humanitarian infrastructure. An ACLS fellow whose work has also been funded by the Wenner-Gren Foundation, Soto is a research affiliate at the Binational Migration Institute and holds faculty affiliations at Arizona State University's School of Transborder Studies, School of Interdisciplinary Forensics, and the Latinx Oral History Lab. Her research has appeared in American Anthropologist and Political Geography, and her article on migrant material culture won the American Anthropological Association's Gordon R. Willey Paper Prize.

#sleepingbeauty #stepmom #magicIn this story, a mother asks her attendant who is beautiful. When he sees her daughter, he cannot tell a lie and says that she is the most beautiful. A three brothers and two hairpins later, the daughter looks to be dead. Can the Shahzada bring her back to life?Source: ⁠⁠Forty-four Turkish fairy tales by Ignácz Kúnos⁠Narrator: Dustin SteichmannMusic: Galata Meyhanesi muhteşem fasılPodcast Shoutout: Susto is a podcast of ooky-spooky scary stories centered around the folklore of Latinx and Hispanic cultures.

A major thread of the episode is the relationship between immigration rhetoric and broader racial control. Danielle and Rebecca argue that calls to “secure the border” are not only about the nation's geographic borders, but also about who gets counted as belonging, qualified, safe, or fully human. They connect immigration enforcement, birthright citizenship, anti-DEI backlash, voting rights, and gerrymandering as part of a larger project of redrawing the boundaries of American life around whiteness and power. The conversation also turns inward toward betrayal within communities of color. Danielle speaks with grief and anger about Latino communities voting against their own ancestors, families, and cultural memory, while Rebecca reflects on the pain of Black men and other communities of color supporting a political movement that has openly threatened their own interests. Together they ask what stories people have to believe about themselves, their communities, and America in order to align with power that intends to harm them. Rebecca offers one of the episode's central metaphors: America as a survivor choosing to remain in a familiar cycle of violence rather than step into the uncertainty of a freer world. She describes the country's attachment to white male narcissistic violent power as a kind of domestic violence cycle, where the known threat becomes more tolerable than the terrifying work of standing without it. The episode closes with Rebecca naming the exhaustion of Black women and Black communities being expected to remain at the front lines of every fight for justice. She frames stepping out of the room not as abandonment, but as a defiant and resilient act of self-care. Danielle and Rebecca end by questioning the stability of integration into white institutions, noting that access may have produced real success, but that success remains unstable when institutions can reverse commitments the moment political cover appears. The episode leaves listeners with a sober but clarifying truth: survival, solidarity, and resistance may now require refusing the old bargain that marginalized communities must keep sacrificing themselves to save a country still choosing domination.   Rebecca — on safety and the Black or brown body “We need to have a brutally honest conversation about the one Black kid in the all-white room. We need to have a conversation about how that isn't safe. Nobody is surprised by that sentence. It might not have been one we said as brutally and blatantly as it is being said now, but I guarantee you that has been the worry all along: the ways in which it is not safe for the Black or brown body.”  Danielle — on no justice coming “Yesterday I said to Luis, ‘There will be no justice for Lorenzo. There's not going to be justice. There wasn't justice for Renee Nicole Goode. There wasn't justice for Alex Preddi. There's no justice coming down for this dude.'”  Well, first I guess I would have to believe that there was or is an actual political dialogue taking place that I could potentially be a part of. And honestly, I'm not sure that I believe that.

What if a children's book could travel through time and connect generations of storytellers? Join Dr. Diane as she welcomes back acclaimed author Emma Otheguy to discuss her enchanting new book, Adventure in the City of Stories, the enduring power of school librarians, and why stories are the ultimate secret weapon for building human connection.SummaryIn this episode, Dr. Diane sits down with historian and children's book author Emma Otheguy. Together, they explore the critical role school librarians play as frontline champions for literacy and open access to books. Emma gives us an exclusive first look at her upcoming middle-grade historical fantasy Adventure in the City of Stories, a companion novel to Cousins in the Time of Magic.Set against the backdrop of 1930s New York City, the book weaves historical reality with time-traveling magic. Emma shares the real-life intellectual lineages that connected historical giants like public library pioneer Pura Belpré, Chilean poet Gabriela Mistral, archivist Arturo Schomburg, and legendary children's librarian Anne Carol Moore. Plus, don't miss a delightful live reading from Chapter 5 that features a quirky, real-life historical artifact, a talking 8-inch wooden doll named Nicholas!Chapters[00:00] Welcome back Emma Otheguy! [00:51] From Social Media to Substack: Writing Digital Love Letters to Readers [03:09] Frontline Champions: The Crucial Fight of School Librarians Today [07:10] Purposeful Play: Symbiosis Between Librarians and STEM Educators [09:00] Introducing Adventure in the City of Stories: 1930s NYC & Latinx Lineages [18:49] Intentionality in Publishing: Books vs. Visual Media [20:55] What it Takes to Make a Reader (and the Heavy Lifting of Families) [22:12] Exclusive Live Reading: Chapter 5 – "42nd Street" and the Nicholas Doll [34:38] Balancing Fact vs. Fiction: A Historian's Approach to Fantasy [39:02] Finding Hope: The Gift of Urban Public SchoolsKey TakeawaysLibrarians are Essential Warriors: School librarians actively curate structural spaces that allow children independent time for pleasure reading, read-alouds, and critical engagement with literature.History is Interconnected: Historical figures shouldn't be taught in isolated vacuums; pioneers like Pura Belpré, Arturo Schomburg, and Gabriela Mistral actively collaborated, forming a rich lineage of Latinx intellectual history in New York City.Intentionality Builds Empathy: Unlike mass media designed for clicks and revenue, children's books undergo a rigorous process involving authors, editors, and authenticity readers to safely guide children through complex real-world issues.Literacy Requires a Village: Raising a reader isn't an accidental milestone—it requires a coordinated network of beautifully illustrated books, robust library funding, enthusiastic teachers, and dedicated parents managing the logistics.Join Emma's Pub ClubTo celebrate the release of Adventure in the City of Stories, Emma is inviting educators and librarians to join the Pub Club, where they will receive a handwritten letter from the author, an invitation to a fun webinar, and writing prompts connected to the book.

Host Daniel Chacón sits down with Dr. Gabriela Baeza Ventura, director and publisher of Arte Público Press—widely recognized as the nation's leading publisher of U.S. Latinx literature.Their conversation begins on the U.S.–Mexico border, tracing Dr. Ventura's upbringing between Ciudad Juárez and El Paso, and quickly expands into a deeper exploration of how literary worlds are built, sustained, and preserved. She shares the unexpected path that led her into publishing—from a graduate research fellowship to discovering a passion for editing through a stack of “damaged” books—and how that moment evolved into a lifelong commitment to amplifying Latino voices.Dr. Ventura reflects on the mentorship and vision of Arte Público founder Nicolás Kanellos, offering insight into the challenges and responsibilities of running a nonprofit press dedicated to cultural preservation. The discussion highlights the press's mission to recover and elevate U.S. Hispanic literary heritage, bridging gaps between diasporic communities and their countries of origin while ensuring these works are recognized as part of the broader American canon.

Michael Thornhill's book, The First, The Few and The Only, is available through the official book site and shop. The site describes Thornhill as an AfroCuban author, consultant, and recovering DEI practitioner whose work explores race, erasure, tokenism, and mixed identity in North America. Book / author links: https://www.thefirstthefewandtheonly.com/about Official book site: https://www.thefirstthefewandtheonly.com/shop Instagram: @thefirstthefewandtheonly Telling the Truth and Taking Your Story Seriously Michael “The first thing that comes to mind for the listeners is you need to take your story seriously enough to tell the truth. If you're going to write anything… you need to be honest. And if I remember your question correctly, to anyone who's the first, few, and the only, what that means is if you've ever been the only one with your face in the room, when you enter a room, you find yourself counting how many brown faces are there all the time at the church, on the school bus, in the youth group. If you've gotten so used to counting that you forget you're doing it, this book is for you.” “I wrote something called a mirror memoir and what that means to me is a phrase I coined to basically reflect what black and brown people do whenever they get together and discuss what's happened to them in a white world, that whether across lunch tables or whispered in hallways, you end up regurgitating something that happened to you and then next thing you know, the space between you becomes a mirror because you're kind of like, ‘Oh yeah, that happened to me too.'” “They feel well worn. They don't have their shock impact. There's not as much of a recoil and of course they feel old, but they also feel not polished in a sense of pedestal, but in a sense of a smooth rock that's been beat up by the waves against this cliff and they're like gems now. It just feels like something that's been well beaten down to the point of beauty and I feel it and yet it also feels good to name because it's like my body isn't the cage for it anymore.”   Well, first I guess I would have to believe that there was or is an actual political dialogue taking place that I could potentially be a part of. And honestly, I'm not sure that I believe that.

Activists in the Latinx immigrant community of Los Angeles share what they do to take care of their mental health. The issues these activists work on often impact their personal lives, and people who work in the service of others are particularly at risk of burnout and compassion fatigue. Self-care becomes a "selfless act" when it allows activists to stay healthy and do their work in a sustainable way. This show first aired in August 2020. Featuring: **Paulina Velasco's** reporting on Self Care as Selfless Act: Mental Health at the Root of Activism was undertaken as a USC Center for Health Journalism 2020 California Fellow.  Credits: Writer, Producer, Host: Paulina Velasco Editor: Monica Lopez Voice Over Actor: Mariana Carstens Executive Director: Jina Chung Engineer: Jeff Emtman Digital Media Marketing: Lissa Deonarain Transcription Volunteer: Mickey Ellinger Special thanks to USC Senior Fellow, Catherine Stifter.

En este episodio de “Pregúntele al Experto” de SRNA, moderado por Jesús Loreto, la Dra. Glendaliz Bosques explica por qué la rehabilitación es esencial en la recuperación de trastornos neuroinmunes poco frecuentes. La doctora enfatiza que el proceso debe iniciarse lo antes posible —incluso antes de contar con un diagnóstico definitivo— para prevenir complicaciones y optimizar la función física. Asimismo, se detalla cómo se evalúan la discapacidad y el potencial de recuperación mediante la historia clínica, el examen neurológico y la revisión de estudios médicos. La Dra. Bosques señala el valor fundamental de un equipo multidisciplinario (que incluye neurología, fisiatría, terapias física, ocupacional y del habla, salud mental y apoyo social) y explica cómo establecer metas realistas centradas en la participación y los roles sociales del paciente. La Dra. Glendaliz Bosques es una fisiatra certificada por la junta y Jefa de Medicina de Rehabilitación Pediátrica en UT Health Austin Pediatric Neurosciences at Dell Children's, una colaboración clínica entre el Dell Children's Medical Center y UT Health Austin.

Lorena Borjas era la reina de las reinas. Nadie tenía más prestigio y autoridad entre la comunidad de mujeres trans latinas del barrio de Queens, en Nueva York. Borjas parecía estar en todas partes: en las calles, repartiendo condones a trabajadoras sexuales; en las cortes, acompañando a mujeres trans en peligro de ser deportadas; o en hospitales, ayudando a personas portadoras de VIH. Para las reinas de Queens, un mundo sin Lorena era impensable. Y cuando la perdieron se preguntaron: ¿qué haremos sin ella?Nuestro podcast de series, Central, tiene una nueva producción: Las Reinas de Queens, la historia de un grupo de mujeres trans de Queens, Nueva York, todas inmigrantes latinas. En diez episodios seguimos su lucha por el derecho a existir y prosperar frente a redadas, violencia y exclusión. Pero también las acompañamos a los shows de imitación y los concursos de belleza donde compiten entre ellas para convertirse en las nuevas reinas de Queens.Ya pueden escuchar los dos primeros episodios en el feed de Central.

No one had as much prestige and authority within the Latinx trans women’s community in the Queens’ neighborhood of New York City. Borjas seemed to be everywhere: on the streets, handing out condoms to sex workers; in the courts, supporting trans women facing deportation; or in hospitals, helping people living with HIV. For the queens of Queens, a world without Lorena was unthinkable. And when they lost her, they asked themselves—What will we do without her? Our podcast, Central, has a new series: The Queens of Queens, the story of a group of trans women from Queens, New York, all Latinx immigrants. Over ten episodes, we follow their fight for the right to exist and thrive in the face of raids, violence, and exclusion. But we also join them at drag shows and beauty pageants where they compete against each other to become the new queens of Queens. You can now listen to the first two episodes on Central's feed. New episodes every Thursday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You ever feel like you're doing the work, taking the hits, and still nobody sees you? That's where this conversation starts, with a challenge that lands hard: what if being “unknown” isn't a curse, it's training. We talk with author Arturo Cerna Jr about The Unknowns Rising, the hidden season that shapes leaders, and why the people the system overlooks can end up reshaping the system.We get real about Latino entrepreneurship in America: millions of Latino-owned businesses, a huge economic upside, and the frustrating reality of permits, capital access, and closed-door networks. Arturo shares the personal side too, including career collapse, rejection, and the identity crisis that follows when the title disappears. From there, we dig into a deeper definition of wealth that has nothing to do with flexing and everything to do with service, community, and the kind of impact people remember.We also go practical. AI comes up as a tool for builders, not a toy. If you're stuck, we talk about using technology to sharpen clarity, map a business plan, and move from ideas to execution. Along the way we hit cultural questions, the “Latinx” label debate, why defining our own story matters, and why we believe Latino leadership at the highest levels, even a Latino president, is not a fantasy.If you're tired of waiting for the perfect moment, press play and take the next step.
