This special episode, hosted by our executive producer Juleyka Lantigua, was recorded live at the 2025 UnidosUS national conference in Kansas City, Missouri. Four powerhouse Latinas took part in the keynote panel during the Latinas Luncheon: 

Cristina Jimenez, Co-Founder of  United We Dream, who has for years fought on behalf of all undocumented people.

Daniela Velazquez, an Alderwoman in St. Louis, and the state’s ONLY Puerto Rican elected official. She calls herself a “Missouriquena” 

Rochelle Garza, the current Chair of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. 

Gaby Pacheco, the President/CEO of TheDream.US, the first undocumented Latina to ever testify before Congress.

Happy listening!
