This is a Bonus Episode from a talk I gave at a UNIDOS conference. I shared a story that starts with a misname - “Big Bunny” - and opens into something much deeper: what it means to be seen, unseen, and still essential in America. This talk explores how Latino communities have long powered this country while being misunderstood, reduced, or erased—and why that has to change.
Through personal story, cultural critique, and a call to action, this episode is about shifting from being treated like passengers to claiming our role as architects of the future. It’s about naming ourselves correctly, refusing silence, and understanding that our value was never up for debate. Because once we name something clearly, we can finally build with intention.
