Listen Later

Episode 2 creates a safe space to unpack the real chisme behind the cultural and national significance of Thanksgiving through a decolonial lens, digging into the complexities of a national holiday rooted in mythologized history. We explore how the Latine community has remanded and reclaimed “El Día del Pavo” as a celebration of gratitude, family, and—of course—food. This episode also offers gentle guidance on navigating tough conversations and setting healthy boundaries with loved ones during this national holiday, in today’s heavy political climate
