THIS WEEK ON LATINOPIA 3.28.25

March 28, 2025 by wpengine

THIS WEEK ON LATINOPIA: ALVARO HUERTA ON THE RESPONSE TO TRUMP ACTIONS AND ALVARO HUERTA ON HOW TO FIND  YOUR FIGHT-BACK TRENCH, RICARDO ROMO ON CENTRAL AMERICAN AND MEXICAN MAYAN ARTISTS AND DR. LAURA BARBERENA ON TRUMP’S DEPORTATION EFFORTS.

What up, mi gente! This week we continue our dialog about how to respond to President Trump’s erratic and drastic actions in dismantling our government with an interview  with Dr.Alvaro Huerta, Professor of Urban Planning and Ethnic Studies at California State University at Pomona. A long time advocate for immigrant rights, Dr. Huerta addresses the question of what has been the response by Americans to Trump’s sweeping action. Also Dr. Huerta addresses the question of How to find your fight-back trench and what does push back to Trump’s action look like? Check out these important insights.

Also this week, Dr. Ricardo Romo returns wit his Tejano Report. This week he looks at the art work of some Central American and Mexican Mayan artists and their renderings  at a recent International Artists-in-Residence exhibition in San Antonio. Once again Dr. Romo brings to light amazing art and their creators.

Lastly this week, we repost a video featuring  Dr. Laura Barberena and Dr. Ricardo Romo speaking about whether Trump can indeed deport millions. This interview was made back in November of 2024, right after the Trump electoral victory. We at Latinopia feel that you will find  much material here still very relevant six months later as Trump’s action become a reality and Americans continue to suffer under his decrees.

Watch for continuing narratives countering the sweeping Trump agenda on Latinopia.

EL PROFE QUEZADA NOS DICE 11.14.25 LA SEMITA – A DELICIOUS MEXICAN CULTURAL HERITAGE

November 14, 2025 By JT

The cold winds sweeping through the streets today in San Antonio stir up cherished memories of my childhood in my beloved Barrio El Azteca during the 1940s and 1950s, where the comforting aroma of freshly baked Semitas was a winter staple.  On brisk mornings, Mamá would send me out from our home at 210 Iturbide Street to […]
