I AM THIS LAND : Yo Soy Esta Tierra Video Contest

18 Nov 2010VivirLatino is proud to be one of the partnering organizations supporting Breakthrough‘s I AM THIS LAND contest.
What made me want to support this contest which asks you and other people from around the United States to create a video that reflects and celebrates the true make up this country, is the language behind it. The contest isn’t “I own this land” but rather reflects what I interpret as a deeper connectivity to a long history of people of color here. This about who was on this land before the Europeans. Depending on your background, it may have been your ancestors, herman@s : Indigenous peoples. Your familia may have been this land when it belonged to Mexico or another country. As a poet and writer, the name of this contest invoked an emotional response that really resonated with me. Being this land for me is about Puerto Rico, New York City and the struggles that I have chosen to take on in this life.

With the access to virtual/online media taking its toll on traditional publishing (I know I’m not complaining), print media is looking for new ways to retain old audiences and gain new followers. Maghound the route that Time Inc. is going. What is Maghound?
Maghound is a magazine membership service which allows you to manage your subscriptions online, change your magazine selection as often as you like (so you could get different ones each month), and you can have each magazine delivered to a different name in your house (you can get one in your name and your kids could get their own).
I’ve been given a free trial of the service to review and present to you and that review will be up soon (the service just started rolling for me) but as a little teaser, Maghound and People StyleWatch are offering some of VL’s readers a chance to win a trip to NYC, home of yours truly, for a makeover a shopping spree.

It’s only fitting that with summer unofficially over, we here at VivirLatino start the back to school season teaming up with the Mexican rock electronico (but really they defy classification) band Kinky. To celebrate today’s release of Kinky’s latest album, Reina, VivirLatino is giving away 5 Kinky posters to the first five VL readers who comment after this post with valid emails. We will contact the first five and hook them up with the lovely posters featuring the Kinky chicos.
Stay tuned for my review today of the album Reina.
Big props to Nettwerk Music for hooking VL and its readers up.
Check out more of Kinky at their official website.
