We Are The Latino Majority
Manage episode 362345672 series 3081681
When we set out to produce The New Majority podcast, we wanted to create a space that amplifies the voices of accomplished Latino leaders whose stories are not readily told by the mainstream media.
Three remarkable seasons later and having spoken with some the most influential Latino executives in America—as well as important allies of our community—we’ve begun to see patterns emerge.
There are underlying themes running through each episode of The New Majority and in the lives of the podcast’s central heroes. The desire to prove people wrong, to buck conventional attitudes, the impulse to include and bring others along, and the tension of belonging, while not belonging all the same.
These narrative tributaries flow through our headsets to distill an image of a multicultural and complex community that is as deep as the lives of the individuals interviewed on our show.
There is nothing new about Latinos in America.We’ve been here for quite some time and whether you see us and ignore us or you simply refuse to see us, we know this to be 100% true: America wouldn’t exist without us and that America wouldn’t thrive without us.
For us, Latinos are America. That although we will be the majority in numbers sometime in the distant future, we are the majority now in spirit.
It’s in that spirit that we have decided to rename our show.
Welcome to The Latino Majority podcast.
