Latino Netroots

Marisa Treviño (Latina Lista), Liza Sabater (CultureKitchen), Louis Pagan (Latino Pundit) and Roberto Lovato (Of América) join La Bloguera and Dabloguiman in the first podcast of the Fall season.

Roberto Lovato brings us an exciting in-depth report about the 2nd Annual Latino Congreso held in LA between October 5th and 9th; Marisa Treviño gives us her perspective on how traditional media coverage of immigration and other important issues impact the debate; Liza Sabater and Louis Pagan help us sort out ways in which the Latino blogosphere could more efficiently get our message out and influence the political discourse about issues of importance to Latinos. Finally, La Bloguera explains why the Mexican ambassador was kept “outside the walls” of the White House during the celebrations for Hispanic “Hysteria” Month.

Don’t miss it.

…there was one podcast, the one we did back in September after the democratic presidential debate organized by Univision, where the questions to the candidates were asked in Spanish, answered in English and then dubbed back into Spanish, while having a close-caption feed also in Spanish scrolling at the bottom of the screen. Confusing? Well, that was part of what our podcast was all about…and several other very interesting things.

We finished this podcast hoping that we could get together again to chat about all things important to our community. And who knows? Maybe even make it a weekly gathering of friends who like to write and chat about politics, news and anything that affects Latinos.

Here it is! Hoping that we can make it a continued, valuable and enjoyable collaborative effort…The Latino Netroots Podcast.
