Career Updates/Job Openings for Monday, 24 August 2020 | Send your tips to latinx.army@gmail.com
Hola! Buenas tardes! Thank you for your responses this morning to our post from this morning on why we’re still called The Latinx. It is heartening to hear from you, especially from non-Latinx colleagues looking to engage with our community. One thing we could have made clearer in our last update was just how damn proud we are of colleagues of color who have risked so much to speak up during these times of national (and industry) reckoning with inclusion and diversity. Keep up the great work. Know we have your back.
Respectfully yours,
Los Editors
