Looking through critiques of #TheEconomist's Latino issue is a huge reminder of the fact that publications don't hire us.

I'm all for white folks understanding racism—but isn't a real ally a white person who says, "Hey, maybe have a Latino write about this?"

Because, yes,
#TheEconomist's cover was awful. AWFUL! But that's the surface. There's so much more—and if you're Latino, you'll see it. -
I'm so grateful to be able to work at
@Colorlines in moments like these.... Moments when I can take what I know and publish something. -
But there's so much more than the cover, and so much more than the list I published. If you had Latinos on staff, you'd be on it. Sigh.

SIGNAL BOOST: Have any other Latinas published about
#TheEconomist's racist Latino issue? Please let me know if so; please RT if not. -
@ErinSiegal Yay for@thisisjorge! (But I'm thinking about Latinas specifically.) -
@aurabogado@thisisjorge ah! Haven't seen anything... - 5 more replies
