On this episode of the Latinas with Masters Podcast, Christina interviews Sergio A. Gonzalez, a Bay Area native and proud Joto, Latinx, feminist, hijo de a first-generation Madre and Mexican Immigrant Padre, jotería scholar, & activist. Sergio received a BA in Communication Studies from Manhattanville College in Purchase New York and a Master's in Higher Education/Student Affairs from USC and a Master's of Arts in Applied Gender Studies from Claremont Graduate University. 

His purpose and power as a jotería scholar/activist, he focuses on co-creating counter-narratives of queer Latinx/a/o individuals within higher education and shares how he created his own network by applying and attending college with his homies! Sergio is currently a PhD candidate and through the lens of jotería pedagogy, he is deeply committed in elevating joteria vibes in higher education by centering his studies and academic career on the lived experiences of queer and/or trans Latinx/a/o graduate students. Check out his new book co-authored by Manuel Diaz, "Queering Higher Education: The QTPOC Experience" and follow Sergio @gsoulstar on Instagram and on Twitter @serxiogonzalez
