Dr. Yadira Nieves Pizarro, Assistant Professor and Chair of the Communications Department in the Inter American University of Puerto Rico (Bayamón Campus), joins the show to discuss media activism in Puerto Rico. We talk about the media's role in Afro-Latinx representation, the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, protests, how people and the news are covered on la Isla and more.
Keep in mind this episode was recorded just before the pandemic made us all quarantine, so some references and insights - while worth listening to - may be dated.
