So honored and excited to help lead The @19thnews!

none of this (apparently serious) prose even remotely explains why a female journalist of presumably normal intelligence would "fall in love" with Robert Kennedy, Jr. & sabotage not only her personal, private life but her career. is it--could it be-- something so banal as the "Kennedy" name?

BREAKING: CBP One, the app that allowed migrants to enter at ports of entry, is down. Existing appointments are cancelled, per CBP. Big news for the border. More than 1,000 migrants each day entered this way.

@mizamudio This is a perfect match! Happy for you, @mizamudio, and happier still for @invinst. They're so lucky to have you.

What an honor to have the essay I wrote for the @19thnews on "becoming" Latina featured in this week's @The_IIJ newsletter! If you're an independent journalist and don't know or are a member of IIJ, you absolutely should.

@julito77 And what he says after “island of garbage” is just vile. Vile.

So tired about the same old stereotype jokes. Been hearing them since this 70s from people like this guy.

I love this newsletter and highly recommend it. The stories Vesna shares, all by immigrant writers, always surprises me in the best of ways.

@MaynardInst @19thnews Thank you for sharing this ❤️

"Embracing this new chapter was a disorienting adventure, a process that forced me to recalibrate my understanding of self in the context of a country that had a pre-assigned label for people like me." @ByFernandaS 19thnews.org/2024/10/latinx…

A beautiful essay from @ByFernandaS 🫶

The U.S. made me “ Latina.” Marriage, motherhood and loss shaped my American identity. My essay for the @19thnews: 19thnews.org/2024/10/latinx… via @19thnews
