On this week's episode of In The Business, Juan chats with Fidel Martinez, Editorial Director for Latino Initiatives at the L.A. Times. Fidel is originally from Texas, having grown up in the RGV, where Juan is also from. There is a lot of Latino pride that comes to play in this conversation and the importance of harnessing that pride to make our voices heard. They discuss the changing times and how increasing representation and visibility of Latinos in media is at the forefront of what Fidel does at De Los, the new media platform from the L.A. Times focused solely on highlighting Latino stories. Find their trailblazing work at delosangelestimes.com to learn more and to reach out to Fidel with an idea you may have for a Latino story.
