If you are interested in listening to more Latino music, you should definitely check out the band 'Athenea y su Candela'! The singer, Athenea, has been in Montreal since 2016 making music and performing all over the city. Read about her here: #COMS367 https://t.co/Y1ZoedqsKB
If you are an international student like me, or have even moved cities for uni, I wrote an article about the feelings that come with moving to a new city. Read it on the Chelsea House blog, or here: #COMS367 https://t.co/W2w3z0IBdu
Since a lot of us use Twitter on the daily, or even for classes (#COMS367) this article felt appropriate to share. After a lot of back and forth in negotiations, Elon Musk is buying Twitter! https://t.co/26e786VP70
@christ_ietweets Ah I remember when this happened! I was not part of it, but I think it is amazing that so many students gathered for the same purpose all at once
@KateOKatt Jajaja this explains why I have fallen in love so many times during the pandemic. I think it's even kind of sweet that we unconsciously make up people's faces as more attractive :)
@attsarah55 I had no idea about this! It is crazy the things people will do to avoid getting vaccinated and to get money. I would have never thought it was possible to get so many vaccines either.
J Balvin received and accepted the award for "Best Afro-Latino Artist." Considering Afro-Latinos are systemically oppressed, what he did is deeply offensive. He has also demonstrated to be racist on different occasions. Read this op-ed on it: https://t.co/iXv0GkhWIz #COMS367
As someone who has always been an immigrant, and is now studying away from family, I do feel immigration guilt every once in a while. A project by LBSU students collected stories on the subject: https://t.co/nrLE2ZBHsW #COMS367 Worth reading even if you can't relate :)

In 2021, I re-purposed an essay I had written for a class to make an op-ed for The Link. I tend to write about LATAM as it is what I am most passionate about (and proud of, without a doubt). Read it here :) https://t.co/XIrnpqfXAY #COMS367
With Fashion Week going on, I wondered about its negative effects. I found an article from two years ago stating both negative effects and a positive response from the public. Very interesting if you are into fashion or trends in general :) via https://t.co/Yx9DwvinO1 #COMS367
As "Balaclava's" are becoming more popular, the question arises: fashion item or reminder of racism? How come this is acceptable and hijabs are not? Read more: https://t.co/EsVzcDdZ6u
Bad Bunny's "TE DESEO LO MEJOR" music video is based on The Simpsons. It can be seen on YouTube or Disney+, though besides being a music video, I think it serves as a critique of Homer and how careless he acted in his relationship! I loved it. via https://t.co/Pp8WM4IJuN #COMS367
Though I loved Encanto and the positive response to it, I wish more people would pay attention to that when Abuelo Pedro was killed, it represented timeless conflicts in Colombia. To read more, check: https://t.co/QiC8JGB82b #COMS367
@christ_ietweets This is so cool! I would love to meet my doppelganger jaja. I would want to know if they are the same down to hands, teeth, and everything! #COMS367
For another COMS class, I was trying to research Latino film critics and could barely find one. I ended up finding this article about (the lack of) Latino representation in the film critic spectrum: https://t.co/XCA9HIxxZI #COMS367
