La Mesa: Birthright Citizenship, Venezuela, DJ Nata

La Mesa Spanglish Roundtable

Edgar Zúñiga and Carina Linares discuss birthright citizenship, Utah's Venezuelan community after the quakes, the World Cup, LGBTQ+ leaders, and DJ Nata.

Carina Linares and Edgar Zúñiga open the show discussing birthright citizenship, our local community's response to the devastating Venezuela earthquakes, and the end of the World Cup.

The Avanza team also welcomes local DJ Nata Choi for a fun and insightful conversation on making dance nights more inclusive and authentic.

For the episode's deep dive, we host a conversation with Liz Pitts, President and CEO of the Utah LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce, Roberto Lopez, Chair of the Board of Directors of Project Rainbow Utah, and LGBTQ+ community advocate Fane Harris. Together, they talk about the history of Utah's LGBTQ+ community, the progress that has been made and the importance of creating welcoming spaces for everyone.
