biancaYou know us Latino families and how we just keep multiplying. In honor of Hispanic er Latino Heritage Month (mas on that later), I would like to an announce an addition to the VivirLatino familia.

4695_bPrevost%2BX3-45_BoltBus.jpgHopefully this will be the last trip of the year for yours truly. As I write this, I am on a bus from NYC to Boston (yay for wifi on the Bolt Bus). This evening, at 6 pm, I have the honor of speaking at Northeastern University gracias to the lovely gente of their Latin American Student Organization (LASO). I will specifically speak on Latina identity politics. So if you’re in the Boston area you should come through. It will be fun and interesting.

me.jpgAs deluded as I can be sometimes, I am not deluded enough to think that I still qualify as “youth”. That’s why the VivirLatino team is thrilled to welcome into the familia, Estevan Montemayor. Estevan, will be repping proud at the Democratic Convention with the Junior Statesmen Association and will be a student correspondent for a few media outlets including VL.

You can check out some of Estevan’s writings at Think Youth.

We are super psyched to have him on board. Join us in welcoming him.

Read Estevan’s full bio here.
