Alongside my teaching and scholarship, I engage in public discussion about the things I care about, including the treatment of Latinx people in the United States, farmworkers’ and food workers’ rights, immigration policy, and demystifying academia. My thoughts on these topics have been featured in interviews with:
NPR/KCRW, “United Farm Workers: The Once Politically Powerful Union is Struggling”
The Guardian, “Why Americans Are Eating More Cilantro Than Ever”
Mother Jones, “Inside a Worker Rebellion in the Central Valley”
The Huffington Post, “15 Latino Activists You Should Know and Read About”
CNN, “Oprah’s New Book Club Pick [American Dirt] is Fueling a Debate”
NPR, “When the US Government Tried to Replace Migrant Farmworkers With High Schoolers”
Meant to Be Eaten Podcast, “Farmworkers’ Rights Amid and Beyond the Pandemic”
