My Story Weaves Our Story, S2E2: Mady – My Story Weaves Our Story
Mady's joy of teaching and engaging way of speaking is on display as she talks with host Tina about common misconceptions about the Hispanic/Latino (Latina) community, including the use of "Latinx" and coming into the country the "right way." She gives businesses some tips (spoiler alert: you don't have to change so much as be aware), and reminds us all that culture and diversity are about much more than race and language.
