American Dirt was published in January by Jeanine Cummings about the ordeal of a Mexican woman who had to leave behind her life and escape as an undocumented immigrant to the United States with her son. Unfortunately, the fiction story failed to meet so many marks of authencity. In a collaboration with Denise Soler Cox of Proyecto Enye (www.instagram.com/proyectoenye)  and the Co-Founders of Latina Podcasters (www.instagram.com/latinapodcasters) , Rita Bautista (www.instagram.com/ritaebautista)  and Nicole Hernandez (www.instagram.com/thedaringkind) along with fellow latina podcasters, developed a piece with  community that involved the host of the podcasts Let there be Luz  (www.instagram.com/lettherebeluz) - Linda Garcia, Aboutconsent (www.instagram.com/aboutconsent) Rosalia Rivera and Tamarindo (www.instagram.com/tamarindo) -host Brenda Gonzalez. Everyone shares their personal perspectives on what was right, what was wrong and how we can do better in the future. Our goal with this episode is for you to listen with an open mind and open heart.  This podcast is dedicate to all my empowerment circle of supporters and patrons who are loyal followers and support this podcast.
