I'm defending my dissertation over the summer and I'm out of university funding. If anyone has any leads on alt-ac or nonprofit work where I can use my #latinxstudies #publichealth and/or #publichistory skills in the NYC area, I'd be very grateful! 🙏

#uha2025LA was a wonderful conference. Was so glad to see Latinx history centered in a non-ethnic studies conference setting. Many kudos to @aksandovalstrausz.bsky.social Daniela Sheinin and the programming and local arrangements committees for their amazing work!

A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.
