As both a Mexicana myself and a firm supporter of Latinos in my community, I try to eat tacos, elotes, horchata, and pan dulces on a regular basis.

On a more serious note, I am involved in the Hispanic community because I live in it and grew up surrounded by it. I have marched for migrant workers’/farm laborers’ rights, and helped people give necessary support to children in ICE detainment camps at the peak of their usage. I hold a firm belief that everyone, Latinos and beyond, deserves dignity and equal rights.
