“In the Heights” has reignited long-standing conversations around colorism in the Latinx community. But this isn’t just an issue in Hollywood. How can we stop the erasure of Afro-Latinx people in society?

On this episode of “Be Heard Talk,” Selena Hill, Karina Cabreja, and Stanley Fritz unpack the recent controversy surrounding the lack of Afro-Latinx representation in “In the Heights.”

In addition, the team discusses the return of “Bennifer,” the New York City mayoral race, and whether or not Juneteenth becoming a federal holiday is an act of performative justice.
