La Gente is an all-inclusive, Latinx platform for underrepresented voices in and around the UCLA campus. 🌹
Instagram post 2325910982699941510_1002184891 La Gente would like to extend our most sincere apology to Afro-Latinx Connection de UCLA (@alcdeucla). Joining the “Brown Bruins for Black Lives” groupme contributed to Afro-Latinx erasure and anti-Blackness. This groupme was formed by non-Black voices, who occupied a space without the consultation of the Afro-Latinx community. Thank you to Afro-Latinx Connection de UCLA for taking the time and energy to educate us. La Gente will work on not contributing to anti-Blackness and Afro-Latinx erasure, now and in the future.
Instagram post 2320983364892565454_1002184891 BLACK LIVES MATTER. as a news media organization, we pledge to do anything in our power to fight against white supremacy and work towards dismantling systems of oppression. we are absolutely infuriated with the constant state-sanctioned violence, and encourage everyone to take action in this fight against white supremacy in whatever ways they can, and in as many ways as they can. we have complied a list of resources we encourage everyone to use. these resources range from recommended literature that focuses on the pressing issues at hand, to organizations you can donate to, and petitions that can be signed. we demand everyone take action and fight against white supremacy. educate yourself, be vocal about injustice, donate your time, donate money if you’re able to, and do whatever you can to work to dismantle these structures of oppression. this list above is not by any means extensive. to access the document, go to tinyurl.com/lagente-blm-resource-guide or go to our bio — if you wish to add anything, feel free to email us at lagente@media.ucla.edu with any updated links and resources so that we can continue to grow and learn together. in struggle and solidarity, la gente newsmagazine
