Venezuelans, Mexicans, Cubans, Spanish Americans — we all need to organize around freedom now.

I was born in Miami to Cuban parents, so I grew up where Spanish, cafecito, faith, family, and politics were all part of the same conversation. 😂☕️

When I first moved to Colorado, I wondered why so many Hispanics didn’t speak Spanish. Now I understand more: history, pressure, survival, assimilation, discrimination, and silence can do that to a people.

Every Latino story is different.

Cubans know what happens when freedom is lost. Venezuelans are living through national collapse. Mexicans know sacrifice, family, work, borders, and being treated like they still have to prove they belong. Colorado Hispanics carry deep history too — land, labor, faith, family, survival, and sometimes the pain of being told to become less of who they were.

So maybe the answer is not judgment.

Maybe the answer is cafecito.

Maybe we all need to sit at the same table and remember who we are.

Latinos are not a political category. We are families, workers, believers, citizens, immigrants, parents, business owners, and builders of America.

We need to organize. Vote. Become citizens when we can. Teach our children history, civics, faith, work ethic, family duty, and love of freedom.

This is not Cubans vs. Venezuelans vs. Mexicans.

This is about Latinos becoming serious builders of America.

Different histories. Same responsibility:

Build. Protect. Vote. Lead.

And you know me — I will always bring it back to harmony.

Harmony means bringing our stories into one stronger American future. 🇨🇺🇲🇽🇻🇪🇺🇸

Did you know that in Colorado, harassment is a crime when someone intentionally harasses, annoys, or alarms another person through conduct covered by C.R.S. §18-9-111.

I support good law enforcement. I also support constitutional restraint, dignity, and accountability — especially when someone is vulnerable.

When I was a Latina teenager in a Police Explorer program, I was already stepping into a space where women — and especially Hispanic women — were underrepresented. That experience taught me discipline, public safety, constitutional restraint, and respect for service.

[Marla Fernandez @Fatima4Colorado]

I was a Police Explorer in high school. It was fun and educational — and it taught me that public safety requires discipline, service, restraint, and trust.

I support good law enforcement, constitutional rights, and accountability.

If open carry is legal in that state, carrying an AR-style rifle is not automatically a crime. Police can approach and assess safety, but they still need reasonable suspicion to detain beyond a consensual encounter. Rights matter — and so does prudence.

I am advocating for American Catholics attached to tradition who are now afraid, confused, or wounded by the SSPX excommunication decree. Many ordinary lay faithful did not consecrate bishops. They went where they found reverence, confession, the Latin Mass, modesty, doctrine, and serious Catholic formation.

Rome may judge the episcopal consecrations canonically. But pastors must also distinguish between bishops who make juridical acts and lay Catholics who are seeking sacraments, tradition, and spiritual refuge.

In America, Catholics have a constitutional right to worship according to conscience. In the Church, faithful Catholics also deserve pastoral clarity, not panic; mercy, not abandonment; tradition, not erasure.

My plea is simple: protect unity without crushing tradition. Correct disobedience without condemning every wounded Catholic who sought reverence. Bring the faithful home without treating them as enemies. #ColoradoPolitics #HarmonyMovement

America has never elected a Black woman governor, and only two Latina/Hispanic women have ever been elected governor — both in New Mexico.
