The #Agriculture Dept report, Household #FoodSecurity in the #UnitedStates, quantifies the share of households considered “#FoodInsecure” & “very low food secure,” a subset with a more severe designation of need that applied to 5.1% of households in 2023. It analyzes those categories by #state, #race & #ethnicity. Rates are much higher among #Black & #Latino households than among #white households.

🇺🇸🇩🇴 #Hispanic Heritage Month is meant to be a time of pride and celebration

🚨But in cities like Everett, MA, and beyond, public events are being canceled—replaced by fear and silence.

📌When culture is sidelined, children feel it. They see their heritage treated as a threat. They begin to question where they belong.

▶️This video is for my fellow Americans—especially the younger generation—on patriotism, #community, and shared humanity.

For my community.
Para mi comunidad.✨

A deeply personal share.

I would love to only post about #fitness, healthy living, and create the illusion that all is well. But that would be dishonest to my principles and values.

Those cheering “Alligator Alcatraz” aren’t just spectators— They’re part of a growing effort to normalize dehumanization through policy, rhetoric, and spectacle.

Some can scroll past this.
I can’t.

Incredible tool!

“Developed by University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), the tool helps fill in gaps as the Trump administration takes a sledgehammer to federal climate, race, and ethnicity data resources.

“We want to provide facts, reliable data sources. We don’t want this to be something that gets erased from the policy sphere,” says Arturo Vargas Bustamante, faculty research director at the UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute (LPPI).

“We don’t want this to be something that gets erased”
The Latino Climate & Health Dashboard includes data on extreme heat and air pollution, as well as asthma rates and other health conditions — issues that are linked to each other. High temperatures can speed up the chemical reactions that create smog. Chronic exposure to fine particle pollution, or soot, can increase the risk of a child developing asthma.“

What's happening right now is not just anti- #immigration. It's anti-#Latino. White immigration is still acceptable in the US.

My family is Puerto Rican. Do you think Stephen Miller cares that we're "legal"? Do you think people who support #ICE see us as American?

Immigration is the cover. When all the Latino immigrants are gone, it'll be "anchor babies". Then, eventually, it'll be colonies like Puerto Rico.

It has alway been about the browning of America.
