Episode 42 was supposed to be about 42 — Sech’s breakthrough album and what it meant for him/the culture as a Panamanian artist. But in true Reggaetón Con La Gata fashion, the moment demanded something else.

This is not a comfortable listen. It’s a necessary one.

This episode covers:

• ICE, policing, and the continuity of state violence

• The Atlantic slave trade as genocide — and why language matters

• Why public outrage often only arrives when whiteness is harmed

• The emotional labor Black women have carried for centuries

• Liberal reform vs. radical thought in 2026

• What real allyship actually requires (and what it does not)

This episode also marks a boundary. After eight years of public education, La Gata reflects on burnout, self-preservation, and the need to step back from constantly narrating trauma — without abandoning truth, history, or purpose.

Raw. Unfiltered. Exhausted. Grounded.
