Let's zoom out a bit and have some charlas con Southern Compañia. We know that our lived experience in the south is multigenerational– sabemos que no es ayer que llegamos and many of our roots started decades ago. También sabemos that where you set up roots in the South also matters. Tune in as we explore the Latinx Southern experience from Arkansas, to Georgia, to North Carolina and beyond!When we say that “we control the narrative,” we mean it! Our history is no longer just being told about us by outsiders. We now have wonderful scholars exploring a history and experience that is also their own as southerners or children of immigrants. En estas charlas, each of our scholars Dr. Perla Guerrero, Dr. Yami Rodriguez, and Dr. Yuri Ramirez guide our storytellers on exploring how our southern communities formed within a particularly racialized southern landscape, how we find leisure and joy within the pressure of being mostly just tolerated as labor, and how our transnational immigrant identities also intersect with indigenous heritage, identity, and culture.    In this episode, Dr. Yuri Ramirez helps us be more introspective of the communities and identities that exist within our own folks which very much include indigenous identities and culture. Our storytellers get an opportunity to share their indigenous cultural backgrounds and how they nurture it even after generations since their families immigrated. We also break down how there are gaps in our own understanding of Latinx indigeneity given the depictions provided over pop culture and media. The historical anti-indigenous racism within many Latin American countries may sometimes lead to indigenous communities finding more of a refuge with places like the US South. Scholars: Perla Guerrero, Yami Rodriguez, Yuri RamirezStorytellers: Allison Delgado, Nancy Garcia Villa, Jonathan Perraza-Campos, Karina Moreno Bueno, Tania Dominguez, Producers: Julie Weise, Erik Valera,  Elaine Utin, Ricky Hurtado, Axel Herrera, Dorian GomezConsulting Scholars: Perla Guerrero, Yami Rodriguez, Yuri RamirezLatinxEd Staff: Maria Pulido, Bryan MejiaEditor: Axel Herrera Graphics: Keyla FerretizArticles and Materials Referenced:Immigrants Who Speak Indigenous Mexican Languages Encounter IsolationP'urhépecha Migrants in North Carolina: A Saint Day FestivalThis project was made possible through the generous support of North Carolina Humanities, The Whiting Foundation, and LatinxEd.Follow us on Social Media @NuestroSouthInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/nuestrosouth/Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/NuestroSouthTwitter- https://twitter.com/nuestrosouthTikTok- https://www.tiktok.com/@nuestrosouthYoutube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNidXQ3-nyxqsb4R5UWJh4A/videosEmail: nuestrosouth@latinxed.orgWebsite: https://nuestrosouth.org/  Music for this video is obtain through the Artlist Personal License

Perla traces over how, al inicio, some folks couldn't even classify her correctly as Mexican because of the prior notions they had of what ‘Mexican' folks were. Our storytellers also break down how their families first experienced some of these highly racialized settings and some of the generational differences between moving to the South in the early 90s versus more recently. Lastly, we cover the resilience of nuestra comunidad and the richness of Black resistance in the South that we can learn from and draw a sense of hope for a more inclusive and equitable future. Scholars: Perla Guerrero, Yami Rodriguez, Yuri RamirezStorytellers: Allison Delgado, Nancy Garcia Villa, Jonathan Perraza-Campos, Karina Moreno Bueno, Tania DominguezProducers: Julie Weise, Erik Valera,  Elaine Utin, Ricky Hurtado, Axel Herrera, Dorian Gomez, Bryan MejiaConsulting Scholars: Perla Guerrero, Yami Rodriguez, Yuri RamirezLatinxEd Staff: Maria PulidoEditor: Axel Herrera Marketing & Graphics: Keyla FerretizArticles and Materials Referenced:Being illegal-it's a job - Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (Little Rock, AR) -March 24, 1997 - page 1AGuerrero, "Latinos in Arkansas and Illegal Aliens"This project was made possible through the generous support of North Carolina Humanities, The Whiting Foundation, and LatinxEd.Follow us on Social Media @NuestroSouthInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/nuestrosouth/Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/NuestroSouthTwitter- https://twitter.com/nuestrosouthTikTok- https://www.tiktok.com/@nuestrosouthYoutube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNidXQ3-nyxqsb4R5UWJh4A/videosEmail: nuestrosouth@latinxed.orgWebsite: https://nuestrosouth.org/  Music for this video is obtain through the Artlist Personal License

La diversión, leisure, irse de parranda and all the ways we find joy are just as essential to the southern immigrant experience as is our history of struggle and hard work. For many early immigrant communities, arriving to the South brought some level of isolation, but over time, our folks started building community through music, bailes, going to las pulgas, playing soccer or other sports, and of course food. Scholars: Perla Guerrero, Yami Rodriguez, Yuri RamirezStorytellers: Allison Delgado, Nancy Garcia Villa, Jonathan Perraza-Campos, Karina Moreno Bueno, Tania Dominguez, Producers: Julie Weise, Erik Valera,  Elaine Utin, Ricky Hurtado, Axel Herrera, Dorian GomezConsulting Scholars: Perla Guerrero, Yami Rodriguez, Yuri RamirezLatinxEd Staff: Maria Pulido, Bryan MejiaEditor: Axel Herrera Graphics: Keyla FerretizArticles and Materials Referenced:“Las Trocas de Buford” by Los Reyes del CorridoMundo Hispanico Archives on Bailes In Atlanta GeorgiaThis project was made possible through the generous support of North Carolina Humanities, The Whiting Foundation, and LatinxEd.Follow us on Social Media @NuestroSouthInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/nuestrosouth/Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/NuestroSouthTwitter- https://twitter.com/nuestrosouthTikTok- https://www.tiktok.com/@nuestrosouthYoutube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNidXQ3-nyxqsb4R5UWJh4A/videosEmail: nuestrosouth@latinxed.orgWebsite: https://nuestrosouth.org/  Music for this video is obtain through the Artlist Personal License

What it meant to be a nerdy kid that loved museums but not necessarily grow up with the resources to visit all the time.

It's another episode on trailas but with a remix of regions and hosts. As young latinx southerners, where we grow up largely defines what our early sense of community is like. If you were ever part of that single trailer park bus-stop, you know what vecindades like this look like. Many times our goal is always to leave these living conditions, but in this conversation, we also reflect on the cultural significance they were for us and the economic circumstances that define those experiences.

On January 13th, 2021, Ricky Hurtado made history as the first Latino Democrat to be elected and sworn in to the North Carolina General Assembly. "For many years, I have felt, leading up to this moment," Ricky noted, "que no soy de aqui ni de alla." (I'm neither from here nor there.) As the son of immigrant parents fleeing the civil war in El Salvador, this was more than a political victory. Ricky Hurtado sees it as a watershed moment where he began to understand his Latinidad as a strength. "My rise as a Representative, a politician in North Carolina, is directly tied to our story as a family," Ricky said. "The good fortune that we've had, the struggles and sacrifices that we've made as a family-- and that this is a natural next step in terms of everything I've been working for, everything they've sacrificed for me to get an education. I'll pass on those lessons and those opportunities to more people in the community and across North Carolina... ." Dreaming las Americas: the journey

Rep. Ricky Hurtado talks about his family's immigration story from El Salvador, growing up in Sanford, and the journey to Alamance County, where he won a NC House seat in 2020.   The freshman Democrat also talks about the national and state notoriety he attracted on the campaign trail, and he even reveals his winning “playbook”.  However, Rep. Hurtado wants more than just winning an election.  He wants to be a bridge-builder, both in his community and across the political aisle in the General Assembly.   Brian and Skye also share their optimism about a final budget agreement between Governor Roy Cooper and the General Assembly, they discuss the one bill that was to be voted on this past week and why it was pulled off the calendar, and explain what happens when the Governor does't appoint a party-selected legislator to a seat.

Ricky Hurtado made history in 2020: He became the first Latinx leader in the NC state house, and was one of the rare Democrats anywhere to flip a state legislative seat red to blue. His story is both incredibly special and deeply common -- Ricky grew up in an immigrant household, was the first generation in his family to go to college, went to work in education, and decided to run because he felt like the students he was working with were being heard in government. His campaign made a lot of news over the last year; listen in to understand the story behind the headlines.

Las elecciones están a la vuelta de la esquina y por primera vez, en muchos puestos, existe la posibilidad de que un latino o latina triunfe el 3 de noviembre en Carolina del Norte.  En este episodio presentamos a cinco candidatos de nuestra comunidad a diferentes cargos locales y estatales: Ricky Hurtado, demócrata a la Cámara de Representantes, José Santiago demócrata y Sev Palacios, republicano, ambos buscan ser senadores estatales, Claudia Sandoval a la Junta de Educación del condado de Union y Franklin Gómez a la Junta de Comisionados del condado de Chatham. Hablamos con ellos y les preguntamos cuál es la función del cargo por el que compiten, cuáles son sus propuestas y por qué la comunidad latina debería votarlos.

How are stories told? How are they handed down to us? It isn’t that our families sit us down for a “long storytime” session but it over many simple moments around the table where stories are told. And these stories shape our identity, they shape our place in the world, and they shape how we other stories. Today I am talking to Ricky Hurtado. What made me want to sit down with Ricky was something I heard him say the other day that his parents escaped conflict-torn El Salvador in the 80s in a car trunk to the US in search of a better life. I want to see how that story was handed down to him. But also how the story influences how he hears other people stories. We start by talking about what everyone is talking about and that is Covid-19. Ricky Hurtado is the Democratic Candidate for North Carolina House seat 63 and a UNC Professor. He is also the co-director and co-founder of Latix Ed. https://rickyhurtadofornc.com storiedchurch.org instagram.com/storiedchurch facebook.com/storiedchurch

Now we enter the story! Today’s episode is about las trailas. Axel lived in one for a while growing up, and we know many of y’all did too. The trailas we’re talking about in today’s episode were around the corner from middle-class white housing developments near Charlotte in the early 2000s. This is when things started to go south (no pun intended). Not all the white people liked having us in their ‘hood, a strong anti-immigrant movement came here from California, undocumented immigrants lost their driver’s licenses… In today’s episode we meet Angelica, a Mexican woman trying her best to raise her family amid this shit - just like our parents did. We try to take on the fights that our parents can’t, but it’s not always easy.

In the 1960s through 1980s, millions of Latinos started traveling through the South as migrant farmworkers. Daisy has some personal experience with this since she grew up in a rural area and worked in the packing sheds before she became a college student. But the crazy thing is that unlike when we were kids, the South was really not that anti-immigrant back then. The white folks were both conservative and pro-immigrant (we found it hard to picture, too). In today’s episode, we meet Israel Cortez, who came to Georgia as a migrant worker during that time and worked hard to “fit in.” We totally get it.

You may think Mississippi was all black and white back in the day, but n’ombre - our gente were there too! Today we meet Rafael Landrove: A Mexican sharecropper in 1920s Mississippi who came from Mexico, called himself Cuban, and fought to send his kids to the white school. Our parents fought for our education in the South, too, but in a different way.

Back in the 1950s, hundreds of thousands of Mexican men came to Arkansas to pick cotton, on contracts negotiated by the Mexican and U.S. governments. Today we meet Angel Cano, a licenciado Mexico sent over to protect them from wage theft, discrimination, and other troubles. Señor Cano even had some success, some of the time. It seems crazy to us that these migrantes trusted their patria enough to ask for help all the way from Arkansas.

Vamos a New Orleans, nearly 100 years ago. Mexican immigrants arrived there by boat. Many, like a man named Robert Canedo, were able to “blend in” to whiteness -- something we couldn’t imagine being able to do today.

In this episode, you will hear about Axel's love for conchas, Daisy's crush on Tony Stark, and Bryan's efforts in learning French to be trilingual. Together we create a space that attempts to make sense of the past, present, and future of our people in the south. This is for us y'all! - This podcast is produced by Ricky Hurtado, Erik Valera, and Julie Weise, with generous sponsorship from the Whiting Foundation, the University of Oregon College of Arts and Sciences, and Latinx Ed.

Ricky Hurtado by Jeff Schechtman

OK Girls, it’s the BOYS’ turn to speak out! Piper is on set with Ricard Hurtado (aka Ricky Hurtado - plays Freddy), Aidan Miner  (Lawrence) and Lance Lim (Zack) from Nickelodeon’s School of Rock! The boys talk about how much their characters have (or maybe haven’t) changed from the original Jack Black movie (…or maybe Miranda Cosgrove movie, since most of you are iCarly fans)!  Watch what happens when the boys face questions from the Princess of the Press! Yes, we’re talking pretty co-stars, what kinds of grades they really get in school, what music they like, and more. If you missed the first episode with Breanna Yde (Tomika) and Jade Pettyjohn (Summer), be sure to check that one out too! If you really like reading all of these video descriptions, feel free to read through our other 231 video descriptions. There’s some pretty awesome stuff.
