PROGRAM # 9938 12:00 PM PT
International Women’s Day.
On the world holiday celebrating the women’s rights movement (and, this year, the contribution women and girls are making to technology and online education,) journalist contributors comment on their coverage of recent developments impacting Latina women. Latina workers were pushed to poverty more than other workers during the Covid pandemic. Domestic abuse and family violence surged to alarming levels during the lockdown of the pandemic. And Latinas are being impacted the most by the current wave of bans on abortion rights. Listeners are encouraged to call in.
Guests: Elvia Díaz, Editor, The Arizona Republic, Phoenix, AZ; Valeria Fernández, palabra, NAHJ, Phoenix, AZ; Araceli Martínez, Reporter, La Opinión, Los Angeles, CA; Mariana Pineda, Reporter, NPR, Houston, TX.
