VivirLatino loves the Allied Media Conference and this fundraiser is such an amazing idea for so many reasons. Taking care of ourselves is so important and we don’t do it enough. Plus it’s for a wonderful cause, a truly independent media conference, free of corporate sponsors. Taking care of our health is central for independent media makers who work our assess off for little or no pay. It is a labor of love that requires not just physical energy and time pero also emotional and spiritual energy since what we write, speak and organize around are issues that are about our lives.
