In this episode I will discuss how prejudice makes it into the home. Also, how school is not the sole contributor to prejudice, nor the solution. I talk about how grandparents and parents pass down their beliefs and values down their kids and future generations.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jonathan020/support

What About Latinx? Featuring my guest Tania and puppy, Canelo, who barked a thing or two.
The term Latinx is not a bad thing. Actually, it is contributing a positive inclusion compared to the term, Latino. If so, why has the term not been fully accepted by the respective community? Join Tania and I to discuss how Latinx is an inclusive term that involves everyone who identifies in any gender and sex. We discuss how the language Spanish plays a role in the Latino word and other perspectives.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jonathan020/support

Changes Poem
"You see, the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do what we gotta do to survive" -Tupac.  Change in disadvantaged communities does not happen quick enough. At times it hardly happens at all. As a country that LOVES to show off how rich and wealthy it is above other countries the unequal balance of resources, opportunities, and wellness is obvious. The priorities are misleading and the ones who suffer are those in the poor, working, and low classes.  Listen to this short poem I wrote as I got inspired by Tupac's song as I quoted him above. Now more than ever we have a very important election to decide in less than 2 weeks. Listen and step out to vote. Everyone depends on this. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jonathan020/support

Girl Power
This episode barely scratches the surface with a few examples of what young girls and women have done to impact our world. From the Mendez family, Malala, and Michelle Obama I focus on short highlights of their impact. Listen to this episode to appreciate what they have endured to get to this point and what they continue to do for this world. Women deserve to be recognized as equal contributors to this world. It is necessary.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jonathan020/support

They protested...why am I not able to?
Listen to a comparison of how people protested in the 1700s and in present time. You will get an insight of how one person has "more" constitutional rights over the next person. This podcast will grasp the way of how some people justify their agenda based on the constitution and scrutinize others, too.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jonathan020/support
