Show notes
On this crossover episode the hosts of Latinx Lens join Tamarindo to talk about media representation, the SNL “Peek-A-Pico” skit, and how we found our voice as Latina-led podcasts.
We start the conversation with an acknowledgement of the tragedy in Uvalde, Texas and we send our deepest condolences to the families facing the unimaginable pain of losing a loved one to this country’s mass shooting problem.
