Third, November 10 at OLA’s office on Goodfriend Drive, East Hampton. All sessions are on Tuesdays, 6-7:30 pm. Register HERE . Latinos across the U.S. are redefining identities, pushing boundaries, and awakening politically in powerful and surprising ways. Many—Afrolatino, indigenous, Muslim, queer and undocumented, living in large cities and small towns—are voices who have been chronically overlooked in how the diverse population of almost sixty million Latinos in the U.S. has been represented. No longer. Paola Ramos is an Emmy-Award winning journalist. She is a contributor for Telemundo News and MSNBC, where she is host of “Field Report.” Ramos is a former Correspondent for Vice News. Before her career as a journalist, Ramos was Deputy Director of Hispanic Media for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, a political appointee during the Obama Administration, and served in President Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign. In this empowering cross-country travelogue, journalist and activist Paola Ramos finds communities of people defining the controversial term, “Latinx.” She introduces us to indigenous Oaxacans who rebuilt the main street in a post-industrial town in upstate New York; “Las Poderosas” who fight for reproductive rights in Texas; as well as drag queens, environmental activists, farmworkers, and migrants detained at our border. Co-sponsors for this discussion include Christ Episcopal Church, CMEE (Children’s Museum of the East End, Eastville Community & Historical Society, HARLI (Hope and Resilience LI) , Ocean Zendo, and OLA of Eastern LI.. Founding members are Canio’s Cultural Cafe and Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the South Fork. Racial Justice East End Add to calendar Google Calendar iCalendar Outlook 365 Outlook Live
