In this episode of Word on the Street, Student Inclusion Educators Annissa and Omar of the RRC are joined by Jocelyn, Evelyn, and Antonio, members of the Multicultural Center and/or Latinx Student Union to discuss Disney’s Encanto from their perspectives as Latine individuals. This episode contains many spoilers for the movie, as well as deep discussions of mental health stigma and lack of resources, generational trauma, and representation. Throughout the conversation, and in the title of the episode, “Latine” is used rather than “Latinx”. The use of this gender-neutral identifier rather than the latter makes a more organic sense to native Spanish speakers, while still retaining its inclusive intent. There is debate over the use of “Latine” versus “Latinx”, but for the purpose and company in this episode, “Latine” served as the better option. If you have any more questions about “Latinx”, “Latine”, or any other gender inclusive language across cultures, be sure to email [email protected], [email protected], or write in to the podcast via the form below. Also be on the lookout for a future podcast about gender identity coming in February!
