Mónica Ramírez Inspires Us to Step Up our Activism

Mónica Ramírez, attorney, author and activist.

We speak to Mónica Ramírez, attorney, author and activist, about what motivates her to do more than enough (a lot more than enough!) to stand up for migrant women and her community. She is the founder of Justice for Migrant Women and co-founder of Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, The Latinx House, and Poderistas, and an overall badass!

Before we speak to Mónica, we catch up on the latest in Latinx chisme. We reference this think piece that does an excellent job of recapping the Flamin’ Hot Cheetoh’s controversy over the creator of the loved snack. Note, that since we recorded, this is the latest on the Flamin' Hot saga. We also suggest Brenda’s piece on Hip Latina about the upcoming Black-ish spinoff, Brown-ish.
