The Latino community is not a monolith. It is as diverse, vibrant, and strong as our community’s collective identity. No matter how you identify—Latino, Hispanic, Chicano/a, Latinx – identity is fluid; it evolves throughout our lives and is personal and unique to each one of us. Episodes 3 and 4 center on identity. Quienes Somos takes you through an exploration of the origin of the terms Hispanic/Latino, and the role social factors and data played in defining our identity. Dr. G. Christina Mora, Associate Professor of Sociology, UC Berkeley, and author of Making Hispanics, shares her story and how identities shift based on geography, different life stages, and policies.

Join us and tune in with your friends and family so that together we can use Our Stories to elevate and address pertinent issues in the Latino community. New episodes will be released the first Wednesday of the month and feature community leaders from throughout the state of Colorado and beyond.

La comunidad latina no es un bloque. Es tan diversa, vibrante y característica como la identidad colectiva de nuestra comunidad. No importa cómo usted se identifique (latino, hispano, chicanx, latinx), la identidad es fluida pues evoluciona a lo largo de nuestras vidas, y es personal y única para cada uno de nosotros. Los episodios 3 y 4 del podcast exploran el tema de la identidad. “Quienes Somos” nos presenta una exploración del origen de los términos hispano o latino, y el papel que jugaron los factores sociales y los datos en la definición de nuestra identidad. La Dra. G. Christina Mora, profesora asociada de sociología en UC Berkeley, y autora de Making Hispanics, comparte su historia y cómo las identidades cambian según la geografía, las diferentes etapas de la vida y las políticas.

¡Acompáñenos!, sintonice nuestro podcast, con sus amigos y familiares, para que juntos podamos usar Nuestras Historias para elevar y abordar los problemas pertinentes en la comunidad latina. Los nuevos episodios se emitirán el primer miércoles del mes y contarán con líderes comunitarios de todo el estado de Colorado y más allá.
