In 2022, the @OECD announced a historic expansion in Latin America, inviting Argentina 🇦🇷, Brazil 🇧🇷, and Peru 🇵🇪 to join the organization. Join me today at @TheWilsonCenter to hear from Secretary General @MathiasCormann about @OECD_LAC regional strategy.

Amazing appointment!

[Secretary Antony Blinken @SecBlinken]

Today, I appointed Zakiya Carr Johnson as the State Department's Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer. Zakiya will lead @StateDeptDEIA, which advances national security by building a workforce that reflects the America it represents.

They were latinos, so sad that people still believe that nonsense about them being only criminals and rapists… https://t.co/aEhYpQHtWI

Interesante entrevista de @ravilapinto de la que habría que aprender algunos asuntos, debatir a fondo otros y aplicar otros asuntos. Me gusta sobre todo la reflexión final:

“Una reflexión final…

La entrevista comenzó con el tema de lo que es una política progresista, pero en último término lo que importa es el espíritu. Suena ingenuo, pero todo debe partir del amor y no del odio. Si esto se resume a un nosotros contra ellos, el Estado contra el mercado, izquierda contra derecha, ricos contra pobres, nada sirve. Hay que liderar a partir del amor por la humanidad. No se puede crear el cambio progresista a partir del odio.”

En esto como dijera la sentencia evangélica en Marcos 7,14-16: "el que tenga oídos para oir que oiga"

[Governor Cox @GovCox]

We build rockets in Box Elder County to send astronauts into space, and once they arrive they can look back to see the Utah mine which produced the copper needed to send them there. To work in that mine and many others across the state, immigrants came from all over the world.

@DanielSanin No! Eso es una ridiculez…

Esa página de Check Mig para viajar a Colombia es la cosa más ineficiente y de mala calidad. Llevo dos horas tratando de sacar el certificado y se cae… por favor eliminen ese requisito! @CancilleriaCol

The point being, when it comes to red lipstick, as when it comes to anything that is an interface between your self and the world, it shouldn’t make you feel self-conscious. It should make you feel more gloriously, totally, who you are. https://t.co/gtjIYBNCsL
