  • Gay Latino Caucus of NYC

    On episode 22, Carlos and Jo Lee welcome Emerson (@emersonsoto1) and Sam (@sdgram88) from the Gay Latino Caucus! You may remember hearing about the GLC on a previous episode when Carlos recounted an important lesson: Go third! Producer Pedro also jumps in on the conversation.

    The Gay Latino Caucus is a social group working to identify and nurture emerging leadership in the Gay and Latino community. We discuss how the GLC came together and the work they do in the community. We also scratch the surface on our experiences as Queer Latinx people.
