On this month’s episode we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with two of our very own remarkable Latina leaders, Los Angeles County Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Debra Duardo and LACOE’s General Counsel Vibiana Andrade.
From discussing the intricacies of terminology like "Hispanic" and "Latino," to sharing their unique perspectives on cultural identity shaped by their experiences growing up as Chicanas in Los Angeles, they discuss what celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month really means. Vibiana also shares what it was like to fight against Prop 187 years ago which aimed to deny public services such as education and healthcare to undocumented immigrants and their children.
They also highlight the positive changes in cultural representation, inclusive curriculum and how LACOE’s Immigrant Relations unit helps families across Los Angeles County.
