My latest for NBC Latino: Will being able to choose #Hispanic as a 'race' on the #census do a better job of identifying #Latinos ? We asked.

Fordham Law and the Center on Race, Law and Justice (Center on Race, Law and Justice) present “Fordham and Race: Looking Backward, Looking Forward” a panel discussion exploring the history of Fordham, Lincoln Center, and how to build a better future. Register here: bit.ly/3vMTBB6

The illogic of the new government racial categories statistically erases Afro Latinx thehill.com/opinion/457241…

To mitigate the effects of OMB SPD 15 directive to combine #race / #ethnicity into one question, we call for increased testing to ensure the current question does not disproportionately impact marginalized groups, particularly #BlackLatinos . #Census afrolatinocoalition.org/statement-on-n…

In light of the OMB's recent decision to adopt a combined race and ethnicity question, I'd like to share findings from an upcoming article I co-authored ('Black and Some Other Race') about the codification of Black Latinos in the 2020 census. In preprint with SocArXiv

NBC Latino Unfortunately a politically motivated decision backed by dubious data that conveniently and once again silences 6 million self identified #Afrolatinos . We strongly oppose. afrolatinocoalition.org/statement-on-n…

Black identify people are being recoded as multiracial by the Census w/out their knowledge or consent. Think retrenchment is bad now? Wait til they decide Black folx w/ any Latinx/MENA origins are no longer considered Black for voting Rights. This is not just an AfroLatino issue.

Excited to start reading the amazing Natasha S. Alford AfroLatina memoir! Highly recommend this theGrio.com & CNN journalist truth telling

My piece about the Census Bureau’s questionable approach to race and ethnic measurement is no longer accessible on The Messenger (they’re apparently out of business). You can still access a version of the article at the afrolatin@ forum via the link below: afrolatinoforum.org/pensamientos-b…

During #BlackHistoryMonth   uplift also important to reflect on the historical baggage that comes with what are often considered “terms of endearment “ for Blacks & Blackness amongst #Latinos & in Latin America - it’s complicated. afrolatin@ forum Afrolatin@Project Black Latinas Know Collective

'Ralph Bunche received the 1950 Nobel Peace Prize for his late 1940s work as a United Nations mediator in the Palestine conflict. He called himself 'an incurable optimist'.'
