¿Qué tal? I'm Sebastian Ramirez Feune, and this is my podcast, Otomí. Coming from the diverse background of a multicultural and multiracial family, I have always been intrigued by the depth of my own identity. I used to feel alone in this quest for self-identification, but I have come to realize that there are many other individuals, Latino/a or not, who have had similar experiences. Being a Hispanic Senior in a Bay Area high school, I have various opinions on a wide variety of subjects, especially regarding social and cultural issues. My intention is for this podcast to be informative and interesting, opening eyes to different perspectives of the world in which we live.

31 DIC. 2022 · The increased use of the term Latinx on college campuses and society at large has prompted many to question its use. Where does the word come from, and how should people feel about it? Many individuals from all sides of the political spectrum have shown opposition and support for the term, all for various reasons.

The Confederates hoped to continue their plantation-style of life within the tropics of Brazil, where slavery was legal until 1888. They became known as the "Confederados."

4 ABR. 2021 · This week we will be diving into the complex discussion of Asian hate in Latin America, which has been prevalent for centuries. Over generations, affluent Asian communities have been established throughout North and South America in Brazil, Mexico, Peru, and more. However, these groups have continued to face discrimination. Our focus for this episode will be the massacre of the Chinese community of the Mexican city of Torreón. The Torreón Massacre of 1911 resulted in the murders of 303 Chinese residents of the city. Hopefully, you can make some connections between this historical event and our contemporary times as you listen!

11 FEB. 2021 · In the USA, affirmative action is regarded as a somewhat controversial topic. In Brazil, the process is newer and still developing.
