FOR 19 YEARS, SARITA BROWN AND DEBORAH SANTIAGO HAVE WORKED HARD TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION FOR LATINOS ACROSS THE U.S.
DESDE HACE 19 AÑOS, SARITA BROWN Y DEBORAH SANTIAGO VIENEN TRABAJANDO INTENSAMENTE POR MEJORAR LA CALIDAD DE LA EDUCACIÓN PARA LOS LATINOS.
By | Por: FERNANDO MILLÁN | AL DÍA News Print EditorIn this edition, the main article is about the work of Excelencia in Education, an organization created in 2004 by Sarita Brown and Deborah Santiago on behalf of Latino students in the United States.
ey met in August 1997 in Washington, D.C., when they were both working at the White House, on a project for Educational Excellence for Hispanic Americans, of which Brown was executive director and Santiago, a policy analyst.
Sarita Brown had studied at the University of Texas, in Austin. As a professional, she created a graduate-level minority strategy with 9 colleges and 85 departments. By the time she retired 15 years later, she had moved the institution to rst place in doctoral degrees for Latinos and 20th for African Americans.
It was an eye-opening experience for what came next. From there he went to work in the White House, in Bill Clinton’s administration, on an issue consistent with what he had been doing on behalf of Hispanic students.
Brown and Santiago met there and had three years of experience getting to know the country’s education in di erent aspects. A er nishing their work in Washington, they went separate ways. Brown joined the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF).
e turning point for what came next came with the release of the U.S. Census at the turn of the century and the way the media addressed the growth of the Latino population. Brown said that “the growth of the Latino community and its vitality was presented as a liability”, when in reality “we are the living force of this country”.
So, with that backdrop and staying connected, Brown and Santiago decided to create Excelencia in Education, to contribute to the higher education of young Latinos. e Washington-based company has a network of more than 160 institutions, all run by people with the conviction to raise the bar for Latino success.
“How wonderful it is when we have students coming out of institutions strong
and ready to take advantage of every opportunity. at is the ultimate aspiration of an institution of higher learning”, Brown responded.
e priority is not to focus on enrollment, but on the faculty, the curriculum and the student experience. And there is also the Seal of Excellence, a certi cation issued to those institutions with such a policy.
is edition also features a report on e Last Days of Maradona, the podcast about the late Argentine soccer star, which won an award at the Global Podcast Ondas Awards.
ere are six 40-minute episodes, launched in November 2021, in Spanish, English, French and Portuguese. AL DÍA interviewed Mariano Pagella, producer of the Spanish version, and Martina Castro, executive producer and CEO of Adonde Media. z
En esta edición el artículo central tiene que ver con la labor que desarrolla Excelencia in Education, una organización creada en el 2004 por Sarita Brown y Deborah Santiago a favor de los estudiantes latinos en Estados Unidos.
Se conocieron en agosto de 1997, en Washington, cuando ambas trabajaban en la Casa Blanca en un proyecto para la Excelencia Educativa de los Hispanoamericanos, del que Brown era directora ejecutiva y Santiago, analista de políticas.
Sarita Brown había estudiado en la Universidad de Texas, en Austin. Ya como profesional, creó una estrategia para las minorías a nivel de posgrado con 9 facultades y 85 departamentos. Cuando se retiró, 15 años después, había logrado que la institución ocupara el primer lugar en cuanto a títulos del doctorado para latinos y el 20 para los afroamericanos.
Fue una experiencia reveladora de lo que vino después. De ahí se fue a trabajar en la Casa Blanca, en el gobierno de Bill Clinton, en un tema consecuente con lo que venía haciendo a favor de los estudiantes hispanos.
Brown y Santiago se conocieron allí y tuvieron tres años de experiencia conociendo de cerca la educación del país en varios aspectos. Después de terminar su labor en Washington, cada una tomó su camino. Brown entró a hacer parte de Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF).
El punto de quiebre para lo que vino después se dio al publicarse el censo de Estados Unidos en los comienzos de siglo y la manera como los medios de comunicación abordaron el crecimiento de la población latina. Brown dijo que se presentó “el crecimiento de la comunidad latina y su vitalidad como un lastre”, cuando en realidad “somos la fuerza viva de este país”.
Así, con esa coyuntura y manteniéndose conectadas, Brown y Santiago decidieron crear Excelencia in Education, para aportar a la educación superior de los jóvenes latinos. La empresa, con sede en Washington, tiene una red de más de 160 instituciones, todas dirigidas por personas con la convicción de aumentar los indicadores de éxito de los latinos.
“Qué maravilloso es cuando tenemos estudiantes que salen de las instituciones fuertes y listos para aprovechar todas las oportunidades. Es la máxima aspiración de una institución de enseñanza superior”, respondió Brown.
La prioridad es no centrarse en las matrículas, sino en el profesorado, el plan de estudios y la experiencia de los estudiantes. Y se cuenta, además, con el Sello de Excelencia, una certi cación que expiden a aquellas instituciones que cuentan con esa política.
En esta edición también se destaca el reportaje acerca de ‘Los últimos días de Maradona’, el podcast sobre el fallecido astro argentino del fútbol y que fue galardonado en los Premios Ondas Globales del Podcast.
Son seis episodios de 40 minutos, lanzado en noviembre de 2021, en español, inglés, francés y portugués. AL DÍA entrevistó a Mariano Pagella, productor de la versión en español, y a Martina Castro, productora ejecutiva y CEO de Adonde Media.z
ENGLISH ESPAÑOL Sarita Brown is co-founder and president of Excelencia in Education. Opportunities for Latinos has always been her priority. Peter Fitzpatrick/AL DÍA NewsPrior to joining Comcast, Gabriel Torres had been working in the wireless industry for 20 years. He worked at T-Mobile and Radioshack, and even ran his own wireless business.
Torres most recently worked at Sprint in Boston, where he was the Head of the New England region. He now works as Comcast’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing for the Freedom Region. is region is made up of Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Northern Delaware.
Torres started his career on the development side of things. While getting a degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, he did a co-op program with Procter & Gamble. A er graduating, he continued to work on development for the company.
His rst job in sales and marketing was as the Sales and Marketing Manager for 3M in Mexico. While living in Mexico, he also worked in sales/marketing at Microso for a decade.
In 2022, Torres joined Comcast as the Vice President of Sales and Marketing, where he “drive[s] sales and marketing activities and e orts for our customers in this region.”
As a Spanish speaker, Torres is able to communicate with Latino customers and community organizations to help drive their e orts.
One such community organization is Concilio, the oldest Latino organization in Philadelphia that focuses on family services. In 2022, Comcast partnered with the group to put on Concilio’s annual Hispanic Fiesta event.
ey used the event to provide community members with information about their products, like Internet Essentials. is product became very useful during the pandemic when everything went online.
“ e digital divide was even made more evident because people who couldn’t connect before, certainly in the pandemic couldn’t connect either,” said Torres.
It is for that reason he wants to ensure Comcast is able to reach all communities that it services.
Antes de incorporarse a Comcast, Gabriel Torres llevaba 20 años trabajando en el sector de telefonía móvil. Trabajó en T-Mobile y Radioshack, e incluso dirigió su propio negocio.
En Sprint, Boston, dirigió la región de Nueva Inglaterra. Ahora trabaja como vicepresidente de Ventas y Marketing de Comcast, para la región de Freedom, conformada por el este de Pensilvania, Nueva Jersey y el norte de Delaware.
Torres empezó su carrera en el ámbito del desarrollo. Mientras se licenciaba en Ingeniería Química por la Universidad de Texas en Austin, realizó un programa de cooperación con Procter & Gamble. Tras licenciarse, siguió trabajando allí.
Su primer trabajo en ventas y marketing fue como director de esas áreas para 3M en México. Luego pasó a la misma área en Microso , donde duró diez años.
En el 2022, Torres se unió a Comcast como vicepresidente de Ventas y Marketing, donde dirige las actividades y esfuerzos para sus clientes en la región. Como hispanohablante, puede comunicarse con clientes latinos y organizaciones comunitarias, para ayudar a impulsar sus esfuerzos.
Una de estas organizaciones comunitarias es Concilio, la organización latina más antigua de Filadel a, que se centra en los servicios familiares. En el 2022, Comcast se asoció con el grupo para organizar la Fiesta Hispana Anual de Concilio.
Aprovecharon el evento para ofrecerles a los miembros de la comunidad información sobre sus productos, como Internet Essentials. Este producto resultó muy útil durante la pandemia, cuando todo se conectó a Internet. “La brecha digital se hizo aún más evidente, porque la gente que antes no podía conectarse tampoco pudo hacerlo durante la pandemia”, dijo Torres.

HOW DID 2023 MAYORAL CANDIDATES FARE AT THE DISCUSSION HOSTED BY IMPACTO, UNIVISION AND ESPERANZA?
¿CÓMO LES FUE A LOS CANDIDATOS A LA ALCALDÍA DE FILADELFIA EN EL 2023 EN EL RECIENTE DEBATE ORGANIZADO POR IMPACTO, UNIVISIÓN Y ESPERANZA?
By | Por: NIGEL THOMPSON | AL DÍA News Sta WriterOn Monday, April 10, one day a er María Quiñones Sánchez, the only Latino Philly mayoral candidate in 2023, dropped out of the race, eight of the remaining nine Democrats and the lone Republican vying for the city’s top leadership post packed into the Esperanza Arts Center in North Philly to speak to the city’s Latino community.
e forum was organized by Esperanza, Impacto Media, Univision 65 and Ceiba’s Latino Equitable Development Collective and moderated by Impacto’s Perla Lara and Univision’s Ilia Garcia.
AND MORE e rst round of questions asked every candidate a speci c follow up question to one of the nine they answered for Impacto prior to the forum. e topics included everything from the opioid crisis and public safety to Latinos in charter schools, urban heat in places like North Philly and property taxes, to name a few.
In a question about access to capital for diverse small businesses, Allan Domb said he’d replicate a $250 million public-private fund for racial equity in Charlotte in Philly
El 10 de abril, un día después de que María Quiñones Sánchez, la única candidata latina a la Alcaldía de Filadel a en el 2023, abandonara la carrera, ocho de los nueve demócratas restantes y el único republicano que compiten por el puesto de liderazgo más alto de la ciudad se reunieron en el Centro de Artes Esperanza, en el norte de Filadel a, para hablar con la comunidad latina.
El foro fue organizado por Esperanza, Impacto Media, Univision 65 y Ceiba’s Latino Equitable Development Collective y moderado por Perla Lara, de Impacto, e Ilia Garcia, de Univision.
La primera ronda le planteó a cada candidato una pregunta especí ca de seguimiento a una de las nueve que respondieron para Impacto antes del foro. Los temas incluyeron desde la crisis de los opioides y la seguridad pública hasta los latinos en las escuelas concertadas, el calor urbano en lugares como el norte de Filadel a y los impuestos sobre la propiedad, por nombrar algunos.
En una pregunta sobre el acceso al capital para pequeñas empresas diversas, Allan Domb dijo que replicaría en Filadel a un

“ e success of an entrepreneur is the success of a city,” Domb said.
Helen Gym was pressed on whether she would support opening more charter schools for Latinos, who are attending them at higher numbers in recent years. While not answering the direct question, she did say she would support students across the spectrum of schools — parochial, public, private and charter — and reemphasized her past support for public schools.
“I’m very clear that charter schools have a role to play in a broader public school landscape,” Gym said.
Cherelle Parker, who also has the backing of the Latino Democratic establishment
in the race, was asked to name two pillars of her public safety plan that would make Latino communities safer. She spoke of her plan to bring 300 o cers to engage in community policing and said her administration would work closer with communities to nd solutions that work for them.
Instead of doing that, Parker said the city and some of her fellow candidates engaged in “I-know-what’s-best-for-yousepolicy-making.” Her example was safe injection sites as a solution for the opioid crisis.
On illegal dumping, Domb, Je Brown, David Oh, Rebecca Rhynhart, James Deleon and Warren Bloom all called for harsher penalties for those engaging in illegal dumping. Brown also added installing more security cameras.
fondo público-privado de 250 millones de dólares para la equidad racial en Charlotte y que trabajaría con los bancos de la ciudad para hacerlo realidad. “El éxito de un empresario es el éxito de una ciudad”, dijo.
A Helen Gym se le preguntó si apoyaría la apertura de más escuelas concertadas para los latinos, que están asistiendo a ellas en mayor número en los últimos años. Aunque no respondió directamente, señaló que apoyaría a los estudiantes en todo el espectro de las escuelas —parroquiales, públicas, privadas y charter— y volvió a hacer hincapié en su apoyo a las escuelas públicas. “Tengo muy claro que las escuelas concertadas tienen un papel que desempeñar en el amplio panorama de la escuela pública”, manifestó Gym.
A Cherelle Parker, que también cuenta con el respaldo de la clase dirigente demócrata latina en
la carrera electoral, se le pidió nombrar dos pilares de su plan de seguridad pública que harían más seguras a las comunidades latinas. Habló de traer 300 o ciales para la policía comunitaria y dijo que su administración trabajaría más cerca con las comunidades para encontrar soluciones e caces.
Según Parker, la ciudad y algunos de sus compañeros candidatos se dedicaron a “hacer políticas de yo-sé-lo-que-es-mejor-para-la-casa”. Su ejemplo fueron los puntos seguros de inyección como solución a la crisis de los opioides.
En cuanto a los vertidos ilegales, Domb, Je Brown, David Oh, Rebecca Rhynhart, James Deleon y Warren Bloom pidieron penas más severas para quienes los practiquen. Brown también añadió la instalación de más cámaras de seguridad.
Parker citó su programa PHL Taking Care of Business, que lanzó en el 2019, que

Falio Leyba-Martinez wants change in Camden and he’s hoping to do that in 2023 by becoming the next City Councilmember to represent the city’s Ward 3. is is Leyba-Marinez’s second run at a City Council seat a er an unsuccessful 2017 bid for an at-large Camden City Council seat, and a win would make him the rst Afro-Dominican to ever hold the post.
A Camden resident for over 25 years, and originally from North Jersey, his parents bought a small store in Centerville, Leyba Grocery, that is still operating to this day. Leyba-Martinez himself is a small business owner who understands the nuances specific to the large Black and Latino population he’d be serving.
“I’m running because we also need to bring more small business-minded folks to the table. e owners that are in my particular ward, they need representation,” he said. “ ey need to be able to know what grants and opportunities they have, what things are there to help them.”
“I believe in two things, unifying our community, and also strengthening our small businesses that the Mayor is already doing,” he added.
Despite a losing e ort for an at-large seat in 2017 — amassing 585 votes to come in sixth of nine candidates running that year — the longtime resident enters this new battle for a ward seat ve years later as a stronger candidate and a team player.
Ward 3 has around 15,000 registered voters, and Leyba-Martinez expressed excitement at the prospect of working with the current crop of Camden government leaders.
“ ere’s a great team assembled in the city of Camden right now. Our mayor Vic Carstarphen, he is a mentor for me. Since he’s taken the position, he’s kind of guided me on di erent things. I also have support
Falio Leyba-Martínez quiere un cambio en Camden y espera lograrlo este año, como el próximo concejal que represente al Distrito 3 de la ciudad.
Esta es la segunda vez que se postula para un escaño en el Concejo Municipal, después de una fallida candidatura en el 2017. Una victoria lo convertiría en el primer afrodominicano en ocupar el cargo.
Residente de Camden desde hace más de 25 años y originario del norte de Jersey, sus padres compraron una pequeña tienda en Centerville, Leyba Grocery, que sigue funcionando. El propio Leyba-Martínez es propietario de un pequeño negocio que entiende los matices especí cos de la gran población negra y latina a la que serviría.
“Me presento porque tenemos que traer a la mesa más gente con mentalidad de pequeña empresa. Los propietarios de mi distrito necesitan representación. Necesitan poder saber qué subvenciones y oportunidades tienen, qué cosas hay para ayudarles”, a rma.
“Creo en dos cosas: en la uni cación de nuestra comunidad y en el fortalecimiento de nuestras pequeñas empresas, algo que ya está haciendo el Alcalde”, añade.
A pesar del esfuerzo perdido para un escaño general en el 2017, sumando 585 votos para quedar de sexto entre nueve candidatos que se presentaron ese año, cinco años después entra en esta nueva batalla por un escaño de distrito como un candidato más fuerte y un jugador de equipo.
El Distrito 3 tiene unos 15.000 votantes registrados y Leyba-Martínez expresa su entusiasmo ante la perspectiva de trabajar con la actual cosecha de líderes del gobierno de Camden.
“Hay un gran equipo reunido en la ciudad de Camden en este momento. Nuestro alcalde, Vic Carstarphen, es un mentor para mí. Desde que asumió el cargo, me ha guiado en diferentes aspectos. También tengo el apoyo de nuestro presidente del consejo escolar, Wasim Muhammad”, dice.

He also emphasized the necessity for action, with current representatives no longer engaging the community, according to him.
“ e folks that have represented this particular ward, have lost touch with our community,” Leyba-Martinez said. “We need to reestablish that. e number one word of this campaign is communication. If we’re not communicating with the people we represent, what are we there for?”
“We need to start understanding who we are, so that we can unify our community. I believe I’m the only candidate who’s going to be able to do that in my ward,” he added.
His running mates on his ticket include Arthur Barclay in Ward One, a member of the New Jersey General Assembly from the 5th district; Chris Christopher Collins in Ward Two, the incumbent, and also the CEO and Editor-in-Chief of the Anointed News Journal (ANJ); and Jeanette Ramos in Ward Four, founder and CEO of It Takes a Village Housing, a nonpro t dedicated to providing drug and alcohol treatment services.
“Every single one of my colleagues running has that connection directly with our community, and all want to serve and communicate better with our residents,” he said.
As Board Member of the Camden City School Advisory, he’s supported several
También hace hincapié en la necesidad de actuar, ya que, según él, los representantes actuales ya no se comprometen con la comunidad.
“La gente que ha representado a este distrito ha perdido el contacto con nuestra comunidad. Tenemos que restablecerlo. La palabra número uno de esta campaña es ‘comunicación’. Si no nos comunicamos con la gente a la que representamos, ¿para qué estamos ahí?”, advierte.
Por eso, mani esta que “tenemos que empezar a entender quiénes somos, para poder unicar a nuestra comunidad. Creo que soy el único candidato capaz de hacerlo en mi distrito”.
Sus compañeros de papeleta son Arthur Barclay, en el Distrito 1, miembro de la Asamblea General de Nueva Jersey por el Distrito 5; Chris Christopher Collins, en el Distrito 2, el actual candidato, director general y redactor jefe del Anointed News Journal, y Jeanette Ramos, en el Distrito 4, fundadora y directora general de It Takes a Village Housing, una organización sin ánimo de lucro dedicada a prestar servicios de tratamiento del alcoholismo y la drogadicción.

CO-FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT SARITA BROWN TELLS AL DÍA ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION’S TRAJECTORY.
SU COFUNDADORA Y PRESIDENTA, SARITA BROWN, LE CUENTA A AL DÍA LA TRAYECTORIA DE LA ORGANIZACIÓN.
By | Por: RENATA BUSCHER KAMINSKI | AL DÍA News Sta Writter
Sarita Brown and Deborah Santiago founded Excelencia in Education in 2004. Born to accelerate Latino student success in higher education and shi old conversations, Excelencia’s work is about the Latino human capital of this country.
Instead of focusing on immigration, the organization worries about Latinos who are in the United States right now. It devotes attention to the participation of students who are transitioning from the K-12 system into colleges and universities that are ready to receive them — and, most importantly, ready to propel them into society.
e now president Brown never thought she would be leading such a prestigious organization, but this is a story that has roots more than two decades ago.
Brown began her professional career at the University of Texas at Austin (UT), where she was also both an undergrad and a graduate student. In her experience working as a young professional in the institution, Brown built the minority a airs operation at the graduate level, a strategy that included 85 departments and 9 colleges. When she le UT, the institution was ranked number one in granting doctor’s degrees to Latinos and top 20 to African Americans.
“It was a life lesson for me,” she said. “What I experienced is that if you are clear
about what you seek to accomplish, if you recognize what is the change and action that you want to accomplish, and then you are pretty straightforward with working with others, you can do it.”
Because part of the growing experience is moving away, a er 15 years, Brown le UT to live an adventure at the White House. Initially, she expected for it to be just that, an adventure from which she would go back to Texas. Fortunately, things don’t always happen as we expect. In Washington D.C, Brown met Santiago, a partnership that since the beginning was promised to do great things.
Excelencia grew from Brown and Santiago’s shared professional experiences serving the Clinton administration, in the 90s. During her rst federal service, Brown was the Executive Director of e White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for Hispanic Americans, in 1997.
She remembers moving to the capital in the midst of the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act — described by her as a particularly signi cant moment because an e ort to secure federal funding for Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs) was nally e ectively being supported in legislation.
A data enthusiast and specialist, Santiago was a Policy Analyst in the department at the time. According to Brown, there is no one else that can read data the way Santiago does — who also studied issues related to HSIs on her own.
e synergy between the two has happened since they rst met in August of 1997. More than work colleagues, they became friends.
ey spent three years working on all aspects of education in the country — from early childhood to lifelong education. When the work was done, they followed separated paths. While Santiago went to California, Brown joined the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF).
Since the beginning, Excelencia has focused on financial aid and how students finance their education — it seeks to demystify the discussion of cost and spread knowledge about it. Excelencia also highlights the good practices that are being done by some institutions. Bringing attention to it inspires others and elevates the ones achieving good results.
Always connected by discussions surrounding the Latino community, they were concerned about the way the media was talking about Latinos as if they were a problem —especially a er the release of the 2000s U.S. Census.
“ is is so wrong headed,” Brown remembers thinking. “It presents the growth of the Latino community and its vibrancy and vitality as a liability. We are an asset, we are the liveforce of this country, we are clearly the potential student body and workforce.”
Brown and Santiago asked each other if there was something they could do to help move the chronic discussion of problems into a discussion of the use of e ective solutions. Focused on making it factual and clear, and relevant for all positions of authority but mainly higher education, they started with a concept: the Excelencia Initiative.
Excelencia now has a network of over 160 institutions that are led by presidents and chancellors who are committed to increasing Latino success rates. ey want and are ready to do the work needed. ey name a team and work directly with Excelencia — something that didn’t exist before.
From 2004 to 2023, the work that Excelencia has created — which is a good deal of research and analysis — has been coupled with a structure, as a part of their tactical plan. Brown said that college and university leaders can access evidence-based practices, network and get engaged by connecting with them.
In the past, people may have had intentions to change the discourse about Latinos, but they didn’t know how to do it. Excelencia came to put a spotlight on it, by driving positive attention to programs, places and people that produce positive results.
“People describe us as an advocacy organization,” Brown said. “We are not your classic advocacy organization. No, we don’t lobby congress or legislators, but we in uence people’s attention.”
People engage in these conversations about Latinos knowing that changes are possible — it’s no longer just in theory. It’s just a matter of how fast, wide and big they want to go, Brown stated.

A fact driven organization, Santiago says that everything Excelencia produces is cited and sourced. If anyone is skeptical, they can look at it for themselves on the organization’s website.
“ ere are some people who don’t want to hear what we say, but they can’t refute what we say,” Brown said.
She reinforces that institutions have to look at the data they collect about admissions, degrees, class performance and more. e purpose is to not only analyze the people who are being recruited and admitted, but also what happens to these students while they are on campus and part of the institution.
“How wonderful it is when we have students that leave institutions strong and
ready to take on all opportunities,” Brown added. “It’s the highest aspiration for a higher education institution.”
For Brown, the idea of a HSI is very powerful.
e federal designation to become a HSI is enrollment driven and institutions that reach 25% of Hispanic students can submit an application and go through the process. However, actually understanding what it means to serve this community is another discussion.
Faculty, curriculum and students’ experience say more about inclusion than just enrollment — and Brown knew that since the beginning. As a young professional still at UT, she supported the idea but wanted to see it grow.
Today, there are over 500 HSIs, and Excelencia keeps working to see it get bigger and better.
Because the majority of the institutions still lack in intentionally serving Latino students, Excelencia established in 2018 the Seal of Excelencia, a national certi cation that aims to support and reinforce institutions that strive to go beyond enrollment.
ere are the three core components that framework the Seal of Excelencia: data, practice, and leadership. Aligning them allows an internal review of how the institution in Excelencia’s terms intentionally serves.
“Institutions like to talk about their great programs, but don’t see if there are any Latinos on it,” Brown confessed.
e quality of how well an institution serves rst generation college students also talks about its concerns about Latinos, as most of them are the rst in their families to go to college. It’s necessary to teach and familiarize those students with college knowledge — from how to choose classes to how to manage work and study.
During Brown’s time at UT, the institution had Latinos for sports, but not leadership positions. She highlights how important it is for institutions to really want to include this community.
“Not because there are more Mexicans in Texas, for example, that Texan institu-
tions are making an e ort to include them more,” Brown said.
Regarding Philadelphia, she mentions how present the Latino community is in the city. ere are many higher education institutions in Philadelphia that are wonderful, but don’t have a signi cant embedded experience of developing relations with the Latino community.
For the future, Brown says it is important for us all to take responsibility and consciously collaborate with others in the community.
e solutions the country needs are clear, but it takes courage and stamina to do it.
“If you [college or university leader] want to be innovative and future oriented in 2023, gure out how to use college and uni-
versity structures to match with the people who want to get degrees, succeed and help them get degrees,” Brown said. “Now we are talking about true innovation.”
is is the time to nd the resources to push a little further. More of the same is going to get us more of the same. Mastering what currently exists is important, but just doing that does not innovate, she added.
Working on a plan that brings changes not just for ourselves, but for the country itself is what Brown, Santiago and the whole Excelencia team are committed to doing.
“Don’t think that you have to do it alone,” Brown said. “Entre nos, we need to be together.” z

Sarita Brown y Deborah Santiago fundaron Excelencia in Education, en el 2004, para acelerar el éxito de los estudiantes latinos en la educación superior y cambiar viejas conversaciones. Su labor se centra en el capital humano latino de este país.
En lugar de centrarse en la inmigración, la organización se preocupa por los latinos que están en Estados Unidos. Dedica su atención a la participación de los estudiantes que están pasando del sistema K-12 a los colegios y universidades que están preparados para recibirlos y, lo más importante, para impulsarlos en la sociedad.
La presidenta Sarita Brown nunca pensó que estaría al frente de una organización tan prestigiosa, pero es una historia que puso sus raíces hace más de dos décadas.
Brown comenzó su carrera profesional en la Universidad de Texas en Austin (UT), donde también cursó estudios universitarios y de posgrado. En su experiencia como joven profesional en la institución, creó la operación de asuntos de minorías a nivel de posgrado, una estrategia que incluía 85 departamentos y 9 facultades. Cuando dejó la UT, la institución ocupaba el primer puesto en la concesión de títulos de doctorado a latinos y el 20 a afroamericanos.
“Fue una lección de vida para mí. Lo que experimenté es que puedes hacerlo si tienes claro lo que quieres conseguir, si reconoces
cuál es el cambio y la acción que quieres lograr y, luego, eres bastante directo con el trabajo con los demás”, dijo.
Como alejarse es parte de la experiencia de crecimiento, Brown dejó la UT después de 15 años, para vivir una aventura en la Casa Blanca. Al principio, esperaba que fuera solo eso, una aventura de la que volvería a Texas.
Afortunadamente, las cosas no siempre suceden como esperamos. En Washington D.C., Brown conoció a Debora Santiago, una asociación que desde el principio prometía hacer grandes cosas.
Excelencia in Education surgió de las experiencias profesionales compartidas por Brown y Santiago al servicio de la administración Clinton, en la década de los noventa. Durante su primer servicio federal, en 1997, Brown fue directora ejecutiva de la Iniciativa de la Casa Blanca para la Excelencia Educativa de los Hispanoamericanos.
Recuerda que se trasladó a la capital en medio de la reautorización de la Ley de Educación Superior, descrita por ella como un momento signi cativo porque, por n, se apoyaba en la legislación un esfuerzo para asegurar la nanciación federal de las Instituciones al Servicio de los Hispanos (HSI).
Santiago, entusiasta y especialista en datos, era en ese momento analista de políticas en el departamento en aquel momento. Según
Brown, no hay nadie que sepa leer los datos como Santiago, quien también estudió por su cuenta cuestiones relacionadas con las HSI.
La sinergia entre ambas se produjo desde que se conocieron, en agosto de 1997. Más que compañeras de trabajo, se hicieron amigas.
Pasaron tres años trabajando en todos los aspectos de la educación en el país, desde la primera infancia hasta la educación permanente. Cuando terminaron el trabajo, siguieron caminos separados. Mientras Santiago se fue a California, Brown se unió al Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF).
Siempre conectadas por los debates en torno a la comunidad latina, les preocupaba la forma en que los medios de comunicación hablaban de los latinos como si fueran un proble-
Desde el principio, Excelencia in Education se ha centrado en la ayuda financiera y en cómo los estudiantes financian su educación. Pretende desmitificar el debate sobre los costos y difundir conocimientos al respecto.
Excelencia también destaca las buenas prácticas que llevan a cabo algunas instituciones. Llamar la atención sobre ello inspira a otros y eleva a los que logran buenos resultados.
ma, especialmente tras la publicación del censo estadounidense de la década del 2000.
Según recuerda, Brown pensó: “El enfoque es incorrecto; presenta el crecimiento de la comunidad latina y su vitalidad como un lastre. Somos un activo, somos la fuerza viva de este país, somos claramente el potencial estudiantil y de mano de obra”.
Ante la pregunta por cómo pasar de la discusión de los problemas a la discusión de las acciones, Brown y Santiago empezaron con un concepto: la iniciativa Excelencia. Se centraron en brindar una respuesta objetiva, clara y relevante para todos los puestos de autoridad, pero sobre todo para la enseñanza superior.
Excelencia cuenta ahora con una red de más de 160 instituciones dirigidas por presidentes y rectores comprometidos con el aumento de los índices de éxito de los latinos. Quieren y están dispuestos a hacer el trabajo necesario. Nombran un equipo y trabajan directamente con Excelencia, algo que no existía.
Entre el 2004 y el 2023, basado en una cantidad relevante de investigación y análisis, el trabajo que ha creado Excelencia se une a una estructura, como parte de su plan táctico. Según Brown, los líderes de colegios y universidades pueden acceder a prácticas basadas en pruebas, crear redes y comprometerse conectándose con ellas.
Viene pág 12 | ESPAÑOL When Brown transitioned to the White House, she already had experience working at a big school with many students. She knew how big structures worked. Courtesy Cuando Brown pasó a la Casa Blanca, ya tenía experiencia de trabajo en una gran escuela con muchos estudiantes. Sabía cómo funcionaban las grandes estructuras. Cortesía LUCHAR CONTRA LA BARRERAEn el pasado, la gente podía tener intenciones de cambiar el discurso sobre los latinos, pero no sabía cómo. Excelencia se enfocó en ello, dirigiendo la atención hacia programas, lugares y personas que producen resultados positivos.
“La gente nos describe como una organización de defensa, pero no somos la clásica organización de defensa. No, no presionamos al Congreso ni a los legisladores, pero in uimos en la atención de la gente”, dijo Brown.
Añadió que “la gente participa en estas conversaciones sobre los latinos sabiendo que los cambios son posibles. Ya no es pura teoría. Solo es cuestión de lo rápido que quieran ir y de sus aspiraciones”.
Según Santiago, todo lo que Excelencia produce se basa en fuentes. Si alguien se muestra escéptico, puede comprobarlo por sí mismo en el sitio web de la organización.
“Hay gente que no quiere oír lo que decimos, pero no pueden refutar lo que decimos”, a rmó Brown, quien agregó que las instituciones tienen que examinar los datos que recopilan sobre admisiones, titulaciones, rendimiento de las clases y demás. No se trata sólo de analizar a las personas reclutadas y admitidas, sino también lo que les ocurre a esos estudiantes mientras están en el campus y forman parte de la institución.
“Qué maravilloso es cuando tenemos estudiantes que salen de las instituciones fuertes y listos para aprovechar todas las oportunidades. Es la máxima aspiración de una institución de enseñanza superior”, añadió Brown.
Para ella, la idea de una HSI es muy poderosa. La designación federal para convertirse en una HSI se basa en las inscripciones. Así, las instituciones que alcanzan el 25 % de estudiantes hispanos pueden presentar una solicitud y hacer el proceso. Sin embargo, entender lo que signi ca servir a esta comunidad es otro debate.

El profesorado, el plan de estudios y la experiencia de los estudiantes dicen mucho más sobre la inclusión que las matrículas, y Brown lo sabía desde el principio. Como joven profesional en la UT, apoyaba la idea, pero quería verla crecer. Hoy hay más de 500 HSI y Excelencia sigue trabajando para verla crecer y mejorar.
Debido a que la mayoría de las instituciones aún carecen de un servicio intencional a los estudiantes latinos, Excelencia estableció en el 2018 el Sello de Excelencia, una certi -
cación nacional que busca apoyar y reforzar a las instituciones que se esfuerzan por ir más allá de la inscripción.
El Sello de Excelencia está enmarcado en tres componentes: datos, práctica y liderazgo. Alinearlos permite una revisión interna de cómo la institución, en términos de excelencia, sirve intencionadamente. Por eso, Brown confesó que “a las instituciones les gusta hablar de sus grandes programas, pero no ven si hay algún latino en ellos”.
La calidad del servicio que brinda una institución a los estudiantes universitarios de primera generación también habla de su preocupación por los latinos, ya que en la mayoría de los casos son los primeros de sus familias en ir a la universidad. Es necesario enseñar y familiarizar a esos estudiantes con los conocimientos universitarios, desde cómo elegir las clases hasta cómo gestionar el trabajo y el estudio.
Durante la época de Brown en la UT, la institución contaba con latinos para los deportes, pero no para puestos de liderazgo. Ella destaca la importancia de que las instituciones quieran incluir a esta comunidad. “No porque haya más mexicanos en Texas, por ejemplo, las instituciones texanas están haciendo un esfuerzo por incluirlos más”, dijo.
En cuanto a Filadel a, menciona lo presente que está la comunidad latina en la ciudad. Hay muchas instituciones de educación superior maravillosas, pero no tienen una experiencia signi cativa de desarrollo de las relaciones con la comunidad latina.
Para el futuro, Brown a rma que es importante que todos asumamos nuestra responsabilidad y colaboremos conscientemente con otros miembros de la comunidad. Las soluciones que necesita el país son claras, pero hace falta valor y resistencia para llevarlas a cabo.
Dirigiéndose a los líderes de colegio y universidad, dijo que “si usted quiere ser innovador y estar orientado al futuro en el 2023, descubra cómo utilizar las estructuras del colegio y la universidad para encajar con las personas que quieren obtener títulos, tener éxito y ayudarles a obtenerlos”. Añadió que “ahora estamos hablando de verdadera innovación”.
Para Brown, es el momento de encontrar los recursos para ir un poco más allá, pues más de lo mismo nos va a traer más de lo mismo. Dominar lo que existe actualmente es importante, pero limitarse a eso no es innovador.
Trabajar en un plan que traiga cambios no solo para nosotros, sino también para el país es lo que Brown, Santiago y todo el equipo de Excelencia in Education se han comprometido a hacer. “No piensen que tienen que hacerlo solos; entre nosotros tenemos que estar juntos”, manifestó Brown. z
Sé, como profesional y activista, que la educación superior puede hacerlo mejor, la mayoría de las organizaciones pueden hacerlo mejor.
THIS YEAR MARKS THE 20TH EDITION OF THE ANNUAL EFFORT TO HELP PHILADELPHIA’S WORKFORCE CLOSER REFLECT ITS POPULATION. ESTE AÑO SE CELEBRA LA VIGÉSIMA EDICIÓN DE ESTA INICIATIVA ANUAL, DESTINADA A QUE LA POBLACIÓN ACTIVA DE FILADELFIA REFLEJE MEJOR LA REALIDAD DE SU CIUDAD.
By | Por: JENSEN TOUSSAINT | AL DÍA News sta WriterWhen AL DÍA hosted its rst diversity career fair in 2001 — then named the AL DÍA Hispanic Career Fair — Philadelphia’s workforce landscape looked much di erent than it does today.
While Philadelphia saw a signi cant population decrease in the two decades leading up to the new millennium, in the two decades since, it has seen growth in both population and diversity.
Despite this trend, the diversity within our city’s workforce still has a long way to go in order to mirror it more closely.
Since the rst AL DÍA Career Fair more than 20 years ago, the goal has always been to confront the challenge of nding and recruiting quality candidates to diversify the city’s workforce.
Across its more than 200-year history, Philadelphia has had its share of ebbs and ows as it pertains to its population growth and decline.
In the decade between 2010 and 2020, the city saw a roughly 77,800 population increase, which brought the city’s population to more than 1.6 million, according to the 2020 U.S. Census.
at 5.1% increase was the largest 10year population increase the city saw since 1950, which saw a 7.3% increase from the previous decade.
e most recent Census data reported Philadelphia’s racial demographic breakdown as 44% Black, 43% White, 16% Latino, and 8% Asian.
Since 2016, the City has released an annual Philadelphia Workforce Pro le Report to provide the breakdown of the level of diversity in Philadelphia’s municipal workforce and exempt workforce.
e 2022 municipal workforce was 48.2% Black, 38.6% White, 7.2% Hispanic, and 3.9% Asian.
Furthermore, the exempt workforce was 43.1% White. 37.9% Black, 8.1% Hispanic, and 7.2% Asian.
Compared to the racial demographics of the city’s population, there is much work to be done for the workforce to more accurately re ect the population.
at is why AL DÍA hosts its annual AL DÍA Diverse City Career Fair.
is year will mark the 20th edition of this event.
During these two decades, the mission has always remained the same — to help various prominent local companies and organizations meet with diverse job seekers for new job and career opportunities.
More than two dozen exhibitors will be present at the 2023 AL DÍA Diverse City Career Fair, eager to diversify its sta .
e featured employers include advocacy organizations like the Children’s Crisis Treatment Center, Women Against Abuse, and Project HOME; to community organizations like Congreso and APM; and large corporations like PECO, Independence Blue Cross; among several others.
e 2023 AL DÍA Diverse City Career Fair will take place Friday, April 21 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.z
Cuando AL DÍA organizó su primera Feria de Diversidad Laboral en el 2001, entonces denominada Feria Hispana de Empleo AL DÍA, el panorama laboral de Filadel a era muy diferente al actual.
La ciudad experimentó un importante descenso de población en las dos décadas previas al nuevo milenio. Sin embargo, en las dos décadas posteriores, la ha caracterizado el crecimiento en población y en diversidad.
A pesar de esta tendencia, la diversidad dentro de la población activa de nuestra ciudad todavía tiene un largo camino por recorrer para re ejarla más elmente.
Desde la primera Feria de Empleo AL DÍA, el objetivo siempre ha sido afrontar el reto de encontrar y contratar candidatos de calidad para diversi car la mano de obra de la ciudad.
A lo largo de sus más de 200 años de historia, Filadelfia ha sufrido altibajos respecto al crecimiento y al declive de su población.
En el periodo 2010-2020, la ciudad experimentó un aumento de aproximadamente 77.800 habitantes, lo que elevó la población a más de 1,6 millones, según el censo de Estados Unidos del 2020.
Ese aumento de población del 5,1 % fue el mayor en 10 años desde 1950, cuando vio
un crecimiento del 7,3 % desde la década anterior.
Los datos más recientes del censo informaron el desglose demográ co racial de Filadel a: 44 % negros, 43 % blancos, 16 % latinos y 8 % asiáticos.
Desde el 2016, la ciudad publica el Informe Anual del Per l de la Fuerza Laboral de Filadel a, para suministrar el nivel de diversidad en la fuerza laboral municipal y la fuerza laboral exenta.
La fuerza laboral municipal del 2022 era 48,2 % negra, 38,6 % blanca, 7,2 % hispana y 3,9 % asiática.
Por su parte, la fuerza laboral exenta era 43,1 % blanca, 37,9 % negra, 8,1 % hispana y 7,2 % asiática.
En comparación con la demografía racial de los habitantes de la ciudad, hay mucho trabajo por hacer para la fuerza de trabajo para re ejar con mayor precisión la población. Por ello, AL DÍA organiza anualmente su Feria de Empleo de la Ciudad Diversa.
Este año se celebra la vigésima edición de este evento. Durante estas dos décadas, la misión siempre ha sido la misma: crear un espacio de encuentro entre empresas y organizaciones locales destacadas y buscadores de empleo, en pro de nuevas oportunidades laborales y profesionales.
Más de dos docenas de expositores estarán presentes en la Feria de Empleo de la Ciudad Diversa AL DÍA 2023, deseosos de diversi car su plantilla.
Entre los empleadores destacados se encuentran organizaciones de defensa como Children’s Crisis Treatment Center, Women Against Abuse y Project HOME; organizaciones comunitarias como Congreso y APM; y grandes corporaciones como PECO y Independence Blue Cross.
La Feria tendrá lugar este 21 de abril en el Centro de Convenciones de Pensilvania, de 8:30 a.m. a 3:00 p.m.z

A PROGRAM THAT RECREATED THE MOMENTS LEADING UP TO THE SOCCER STAR’S DEATH WAS RECOGNIZED AT THE GLOBAL PODCAST ONDAS AWARDS.
Un programa que recreó los momentos previos a la muerte del astro del fútbol fue reconocido en los Premios Ondas Globales de Podcast.
By | Por: SANDRA RAMÍREZ ORTEGA | AL DÍA News Writer
“The news we never wanted to give”, “He’s leaving but he’s not leaving us. Diego is eternal”, “In the hands of God”, “What planet did you go to”.... We could dedicate a whole page to all the headlines of November 20th, 2020, that reported the death of Argentine Diego Armando Maradona, one of the most important soccer players of all time. e main sport and its country, which lives soccer with a fervent passion, paused to mourn the heart attack that ended the life of the 10, who was 60 years old at the time. Without abandoning the controversy that accompanied him since his career as a professional sportsman, Diego’s death paralyzed Argentina and took over television screens, radio programs, newspaper and magazine covers. Nothing else was being talked about.
e press, in its eagerness for scoops while a whole family and a nation were dressed in mourning, ventured into sketching answers to questions such as: was the operation for a subdural hematoma that the former player underwent shortly before his death necessary?; who was in charge of taking care of him that day?; what medications was he taking and who was supplying him?
In a scenario of doubts clouding the certainties, the responsible and impartial journalistic investigation gained strength and motivated, thanks to the initiative of Spotify, the production of a program in an innovative format with an unstoppable boom worldwide: the podcast. us, was born e Last Days of Maradona, with six episodes of 40 minutes each.
In addition to the news in traditional media, in social networks and messaging platforms began to leak audios recorded by the same environment of Barrilete Cósmico: people of his entire con dence among which were nurses, doctors, surgeons and lawyers.
ere were not two or three or four, but 4,300 voice messages, intimate and revealing about the day-to-day life with Pelusa, which reached the hands of the justice system, which was forced to open an investigation against eight people for “simple homicide with eventual malice”.
is highly informative material was accessed by the small screen and a group of 70 people, who launched e last days of Maradona in Spanish, Portuguese, English and French in November 2021, a er an exhaustive work of almost a year.
e hosts for each version were journalist Matias Martin, in Argentina; former French soccer player ierry Henry, in France and the United Kingdom; former Argentine soccer player Jorge Valdano, in Spain and Latin America; journalist Juca Kfuori, in Brazil, and actor Salvatore Esposito, in Italy.
“We had the audios of the internal communication of everyone around them, what they were thinking, what they were talking about. We had the audios that were sent specifically at the time each of the things were happening, how it a ected them, how it a ected Maradona. It was something so direct and just thinking about available material, it was something unique”, said Mariano Pagella, producer of the Spanish version podcast, in conversation with AL DÍA from Buenos Aires.
In a country where being a ‘Maradonian’ is a religion, Pagella admitted not to be a soccer player, much less a connoisseur of the history of the 10. It was precisely this fresh and outsider vision that enriched the program’s story, according to Martina Castro, executive producer and CEO of Adonde Media.
“La noticia que nunca quisimos dar”, “Se va pero no nos deja. Diego es eterno”, “En las manos de Dios”, “A qué planeta te fuiste”... Podríamos dedicar una página entera a todos los titulares del 20 de noviembre del 2020 que informaban sobre la muerte del argentino Diego Armando Maradona, uno de los futbolistas más importantes de todos los tiempos.
El deporte rey y su país, que vive el fútbol con una ferviente pasión, se detuvieron a llorar el paro cardiaco que puso n a la vida del ‘10’ que por entonces tenía 60 años.
Sin abandonar la polémica que lo acompañó desde su carrera como deportista profesional, el fallecimiento de Diego paralizó Argentina y tomó las pantallas de la televisión, los programas de radio, las tapas de periódicos y revistas. No se hablaba de otra cosa.
La prensa, en su afán de primicias mientras que toda una familia y una nación se vestían de luto, se aventuraba en esbozar respuestas a preguntas como ¿era necesaria la operación por un hematoma subdural a la que fue sometido el ex jugador poco antes de
su fallecimiento?, ¿quién se encargaba de cuidarlo ese día?, ¿qué medicamentos tomaba y quiénes se lo suministraban?
En un escenario de dudas nublando las certezas, la investigación periodística responsable y ecuánime cobró fuerza y motivó, gracias a la iniciativa de Spotify, la producción de un programa en un formato innovador con un auge imparable en todo el mundo: el podcast. Así nació Los últimos días de Maradona, con seis episodios de 40 minutos cada uno.
Además de las noticias en medios tradicionales, en redes sociales y plataformas de mensajería empezaron a ltrarse audios grabados por el mismo entorno de ‘Barrilete Cósmico’: personas de su entera con anza entre las que se encontraban enfermeros, médicos, cirujanos y abogados.
No fueron dos ni tres ni cuatro, sino 4.300 mensajes de voz, íntimos y reveladores sobre el día a día con el ‘Pelusa’, los que llegaron a manos de la justicia, que se vio obligada a abrir una investigación contra ocho personas por “homicidio simple con dolo eventual”.
A este material de alto valor informativo accedió la pequeña pantalla y un grupo de 70 personas, que lanzó Los últimos días de Maradona en español, portugués, inglés y francés en noviembre del 2021, tras un trabajo exhaustivo de casi un año.
Los hosts para cada versión fueron el periodista Matias Martin, en Argentina; el exfutbolista francés ierry Henry, en Francia y Reino Unido; el ex futbolista argentino Jorge Valdano, en España y América Latina; el periodista Juca Kfuori, en Brasil, y el actor Salvatore Esposito, en Italia.
“Teníamos los audios de la comunicación interna de todos los que estaban a su alrededor, de qué es lo que pensaban, qué es lo que hablaban. Teníamos los audios que se mandaban especí camente en el momento en que sucedían cada una de las cosas, cómo los afectaba a ellos, cómo afectaban a Maradona. Era algo tan directo y solo pensando en material disponible, era algo muy único”, dijo Mariano Pagella, productor del podcast de la versión en español, en conversación con AL DÍA desde Buenos Aires.
En un país donde ser ‘maradoniano’ es una religión, Pagella admitió no ser futbolero ni mucho menos conocedor de la historia del 10. Justamente esa visión fresca y de outsider logró enriquecer el relato del programa, según comentó Martina Castro, productora ejecutiva y CEO de Adonde Media.
“Era importante que esta serie no fuera tan insider para que la gente de fuera pudiera
ENGLISH ESPAÑOL“It was important that this series was not so insider so that people from the outside could enjoy and understand it. at Mariano was a bit of an outsider was important, to give it that outside look. Although we also had the challenge of hooking people who knew a lot and who were fans”, said Martina Castro from the United States, where she also coordinated all the production teams.
Castro stressed that, for her, it was essential that the story was not macabre or sad. “We are talking about an extremely important person for the Argentine people, for many people around the world. We were going to talk about death, about di cult moments, but the series could not be all that. It had to be entertaining”, he said.
Pagella, for his part, confessed that the podcast allowed him to get to know from the inside the magic that the idol gave o and continues to give o in a population as vehement as the Argentinean one. “ is was not just the story of Diego’s death. It had to do also, in a way, with how we treat our heroes, how we raise a person. We put them so high, so high, that their fall is so abysmal and so strong. And by being so high, they end up isolated from the world. ey are le in another universe, which is the angle from which we take this story”, he added.
In February of this year, the podcast e Last Days of Maradona won the Premios Ondas for Podcast in Best Production category. e jury valued “the rst simultaneous launch of a podcast adapted to six regions” and having “aligned a list of professionals from half the world in a project with a sum of adaptations to address the story of the most inuential soccer player in the history of the most popular sport”.
e awards, organized by PRISA Audio and Cadena SER, in collaboration with Spotify, will be presented on May 24th in the Spanish city of Malaga. z
disfrutarla y entenderla. Que Mariano fuera un poco outsider fue importante, para que le diera esa mirada de afuera. Aunque también teníamos el desafío de enganchar a la gente que sí sabía mucho y que sí era fan”, relató Martina Castro desde Estados Unidos, donde también coordinó a todos los equipos de producción.
Castro destacó que, para ella, era fundamental que la historia no fuera macabra ni triste. “Estamos hablando de una persona sumamente importante para el pueblo argentino, para mucha gente por el mundo. Íbamos a hablar de la muerte, de momentos difíciles, pero no podía ser todo eso la serie. Tenía que ser entretenida”, señaló.
Pagella, por su parte, confesó que el podcast le permitió conocer desde dentro la magia que el ídolo desprendió y sigue desprendiendo en una población tan vehemente como la argentina. “Esta no era solo la historia de la muerte de Diego. Tenía que ver también, en cierta forma, con cómo tratamos a nuestros héroes, cómo subimos a una persona, la ponemos tan alto, tan alto, que su caída es tan abismal y tan fuerte. Y al estar tan arriba terminan aislados del mundo. Quedan en otro universo, que es el ángulo desde el que tomamos esta historia”, acotó.
En febrero de este año, el podcast Los últimos días de Maradona se consagró ganador de los Premios Ondas de Podcast en la categoría Mejor Producción. El jurado valoró “el primer lanzamiento simultáneo de un podcast adaptado a seis regiones” y el haber “alineado a una lista de profesionales de medio mundo en un proyecto con una suma de adaptaciones para abordar la historia del jugador de fútbol más in uyente de la historia del deporte más popular”.
Los galardones, organizados por PRISA Audio y Cadena SER en colaboración con Spotify, se entregarán el próximo 24 de mayo en la ciudad española de Málaga.z

JULIAN RANDALL WRITES FOR LATINX KIDS TO LEARN ABOUT THEIR PAST FROM AN OPTIMISTIC PERSPECTIVE.
JULIÁN RANDALL ESCRIBE PARA QUE LOS NIÑOS LATINOS CONOZCAN SU PASADO DESDE UNA PERSPECTIVA OPTIMISTA. ES EL AUTOR DE VARIAS NOVELAS.
By | Por: ANDREA RODÉS | AL DÍA News WriterJulian Randall grew up in Chicago but he considers Philadelphia his artistic hometown. “I began taking writing very seriously when I was going to events at the Philly Pigeon back in the 2010s!,” he recalled in a recent interview with AL DÍA, a newspaper he is very familiar with. “AL DÍA was always a vibe for me. If I saw it on a stand it felt like I was somewhere safe, so being interviewed for it is wild,” he joked.
With an MFA in Poetry from Ole Miss, Julian Randall de nes himself as a Living Queer Afrolatino poet and children’s book writer from Chicago.
Born to a Dominican mother from Washington Heights, he is the author of Refuse (Pitt, 2018), a poetry book documenting a young biracial man’s journey through the mythos of blackness, latinidad, family, sexuality and a hostile American landscape, as well as the middle grade fantasy novels Pilar Ramirez And e Escape from Zafa (Holt, Winter 2022), and Pilar Ramirez And e Course of San Zenon (Holt, February 2023), starring a teenager with a deep curiosity for her identity and her family’s country of origin: the Dominican Republic.
“When I was 8 years old I stumbled downstairs looking for my mom and I found her crying, and I’d never seen her cry before. And she was crying over a book, so I was double confused. And when I asked what she was crying about, she said ‘this is the story of the woman who fought back against the man who kicked your abuelo o the island,’” Randall recalled. e story her mother told her then —her grandfather had to be exiled from the Dominican Republic for having told a joke about Trujillo to his friends— stuck in her head and all the questions that were raised then are the ones she wanted to answer in her series on Pilar Ramirez.
“ e rst time I heard this all eight years of my mind exploded with questions. Questions on why I’d never learned this in school, on whether Trujillo was still out there, on what happens if they had caught him. And
all of those questions, all that worry for which there were no books for a kid my age, all of it became Pilar. I wanted to make a book where an Afrolatina nds magic in memory and challenge in history. I wanted the daughter my mother never had to be a hero I’d have loved as a kid. I’m blessed that all of that became Pilar,” he explained.
According to Randall, we have everything to gain from reckoning with the past with an eye towards healing. “We are all, each of us, in the face of a renewed tide of fascistic autocrats. People are banning books because they are looking to ban people. ey are also banning people outright and it will continue for as long as we refuse to learn from and build upon the past,” he said. “I write for all kids who are looking to take a stand against that, globally or on their block. I wrote this book to Latinx kids, but I wrote it for everyone, because everyone is a ected by this new generation of Trujillos we see moving now.”
No doubt lineage is omnipresent in Randall’s writing —“I felt pushed to write by the fact I couldn’t hold many of these stories inside anymore”, he said—, but magic has also a strong presence, especially when he writes ction for kids. “ ere’s magic in every-
Julian Randall creció en Chicago, pero considera Filadel a su ciudad natal como artista. “Empecé a tomarme la escritura muy en serio cuando iba a eventos en el Philly Pigeon, allá por los años 2010”, recordó en una entrevista con AL DÍA, un medio que conoce bien.
“AL DÍA siempre me dio buena vibra, si lo veía en un estand me sentía como si estuviera en algún lugar seguro, por lo que ser entrevistado por ustedes es de locos”, bromeó.
Con un MFA en Poesía por Ole Miss, Julian Randall se de ne a sí mismo como un poeta y escritor de libros infantiles afrolatino y queer de Chicago.
De madre dominicana nacida en Washington Heights, Randall es autor de Refuse (Pitt, 2018), un poemario que documenta el viaje de un joven birracial a través de los mitos de la negritud, la latinidad, la familia, la sexualidad y un paisaje estadounidense hostil.
También ha escrito las novelas fantásticas para estudiantes de grado medio Pilar Ramirez And e Escape from Zafa (Holt, 2022), y Pilar Ramirez And e Course of San Zenon (Holt, febrero de 2023), protagonizadas por una adolescente afrolatina con una profunda curiosidad por el país de origen de su familia: la República Dominicana.
“Cuando tenía 8 años bajé las escaleras a trompicones buscando a mi madre y me la encontré llorando, y nunca la había visto llorar. Y lloraba por un libro, así que me quedé
doblemente confundido. Cuando le pregunté por qué lloraba, me dijo: ‘Esta es la historia de las mujeres que lucharon contra el hombre que echó a tu abuelo de la isla’”, recuerda Randall. Su abuelo tuvo que exiliarse por haberles contado un chiste a sus amigos sobre el dictador dominicano Rafael Leonidas Trujillo. Esa historia que le contó entonces su madre se le quedó grabada en la cabeza y todas las cuestiones que se le despertaron entonces son las que ha querido responder en su serie sobre Pilar Ramírez. “Mi mente de ocho años explotó a preguntas. Preguntas sobre por qué nunca había aprendido esto en la escuela, sobre si Trujillo seguía por ahí, sobre qué pasaba si lo habían atrapado. Y todas esas preguntas, todas esas preocupaciones para las que no había libros para un niño de mi edad, todo eso se convirtió en Pilar. Quería hacer un libro en el que una afrolatina encontrara la magia en la memoria y el desafío en la historia. Quería que la hija que mi madre nunca tuvo fuera una heroína que yo hubiera amado de niña. Tengo la suerte de que todo eso se convirtiera en Pilar”, explicó.
Según Randall, tenemos todas las de ganar si nos enfrentamos al pasado con la mirada puesta en la curación. “Estamos todos, cada uno de nosotros, ante una renovada marea de autócratas fascistas. Se prohíben libros porque se quiere prohibir personas. También prohíben a la gente sin más, y esto continuará mientras nos neguemos a aprender del pasado y a construir sobre él”, a rmó.
Además, indica que escribe “para todos los niños que quieren oponerse a esto, en todo el mundo o en su barrio. Escribí este libro para los niños latinx, pero lo escribí para todos, porque todos se ven afectados por esta nueva generación de Trujillos que vemos des lar ahora”.
Sin duda, el linaje y el peso de la historia están omnipresentes en la escritura de Randall: “Me sentí empujado a escribir por el hecho de que ya no podía guardar muchas de estas historias en mi interior”.
Pero, la magia también tiene una fuerte presencia, especialmente en sus libros de cción para niños. “En la República Dominicana

thing in D.R, there’s supernatural stories all around and under every tongue.”, he said. “I wanted Pilar’s magic to come from memory and be tied to her afrolatinidad. I write books for young people that bind magic and history because on the rare chance that we were learning something about Black folks or Latino folks in school it was always some massive pain or tragedy we had survived and I came to wonder if it was because our teachers couldn’t see our magic, our joys, our full whole lives. Magic to me is about making tangible what is intangible,” he concluded.
Whether it’s Poetry or Children’s books, Randall remembers clearly that the idea of becoming a writer began at college, when his best friend invited him to an open mic. “My plans to catch up on Breaking Bad and eat cocoa pu s had derailed moments earlier when I discovered my roommate had drunk up all the milk I’d been saving. So I say ‘Fine, I’ll slide to the poetry thing.’ And for the rst time I heard poems from people my own age, folks I knew were children of hip hop and called their ancestors ‘Abuela’ too,” he remembered. “I fell in love, I felt like I could be good at it and the more meetings I came to the more writing became my bridge to feeling like myself,” he concluded.z
hay magia en todo, hay historias sobrenaturales alrededor y debajo de cada lengua”, dijo.
“Quería que la magia de Pilar surgiera de la memoria y estuviera ligada a su afrolatinidad. Escribo libros para jóvenes que vinculan la magia y la historia porque en las raras ocasiones en que aprendíamos algo sobre los negros o los latinos en la escuela siempre se trataba de algún gran dolor o tragedia a la que habíamos sobrevivido y llegué a preguntarme si era porque nuestros profesores no podían ver nuestra magia, nuestras alegrías, nuestras vidas completas. Para mí, la magia consiste en hacer tangible lo intangible”, comentó.
Ya sea poesía o libros infantiles, Randall recuerda con claridad que la idea de convertirse en escritor comenzó en la universidad, cuando su mejor amigo le invitó a una sesión de micro abierto. “Mis planes de ponerme al día con Breaking Bad y comer cereales de chocolate se habían descarrilado momentos antes, cuando descubrí que mi compañero de habitación se había bebido toda la leche que yo había estado guardando. Así que dije: ‘bueno, me pasaré por lo de la poesía’. Y por primera vez escuché poemas de gente de mi edad, gente que sabía que eran hijos del hip hop y que también llamaban ‘Abuela’ a sus antepasados”, recordó.
“Me enamoré, sentí que podía ser bueno en eso, y a medida que asistía a más encuentros, me daba cuenta de que la escritura se convertía en un puente para sentirme yo mismo”, concluyó. z

Daughter to immigrant parents, an Ecuadorian father, and a Honduran mother, Nayeli Picón, a rst-generation student, is navigating academia while launching her educational nonpro t, Proyecto Dalia, which provides Ecuadorian low-income communities and children with educational opportunities that will lead to economic mobility.
Picón is a senior at La Salle University, double majoring in international business andnance. She is the president of the Organization of Latin American Students (OLAS), which promotes Latin American cultural awareness and understanding, and is a member of the Business Fellows Leadership Program. e New York native got inducted into Beta Gamma Sigma, La Salle’s international business honor society.
e Ecuadorian Honduran student secured her rst experience in corporate with an internship at Johnson & Johnson as a Global Functions Finance Co-Op.
Nayeli shares more of her story in an interview with AL DÍA.
While in high school, Nayeli knew she wanted to pursue a business degree, and during her college selection process focused on universities with international business programs. La Salle was the rst college she visited, noticing she would thrive in a smaller setting, ultimately deciding to apply to the university because of its 13:1 student-to-faculty ratio.
“I feel like there was more diversity compared to the other schools I was looking to attend,” she admits, noting that you don’t need to know what career you want to pursue while in college, something she realized a er taking a few nance courses and deciding to take an additional major, nance.
As the president of OLAS, she focuses on promoting diversity and awareness on campus. is role has allowed her to develop leadership skills and learn her leadership style. OLAS is an inclusive organization that welcomes students willing to learn and celebrate Latino culture. She adds that those
interested in learning Spanish and want to practice their Spanish are welcome to join.
Nayeli is also a member of the Business Fellows Leadership Program, which allowed her to obtain her rst corporate experience as an intern at Johnson & Johnson. She applied for the internship during the pandemic and got to “experience a company culture where diversity is respected and celebrated,” assures Picón, who received an o er to extend her internship, which she accepted, working for J&J for a year. is internship reassured her that nance was the right career path for her, just not in healthcare.
“I enjoyed the learning opportunities and the connections I was able to make,” emphasized Nayeli, admitting she was inspired to start her nonpro t Proyecto Dalia because of her experience at J&J.
Nayeli was inspired by her late grandmother, Elia, and her late cousin, Davis, both deceased due to cancer. She combined their names, creating Proyecto Dalia—inuenced by education advocate Elia’s legacy as an educator that provided education for low-income communities, she felt com-
Hija de padres inmigrantes, un padre ecuatoriano y una madre hondureña, Nayeli Picón se desenvuelve en el mundo académico al tiempo que lanza su organización educativa sin ánimo de lucro. Se trata del Proyecto Dalia, que ofrece a las comunidades y niños ecuatorianos de bajos ingresos oportunidades educativas para insertarse en el mercado.
Picón es estudiante de primera generación y cursa último año en la Universidad La Salle, con una doble especialización en Comercio Internacional y Finanzas. Es la presidenta de la Organización de Estudiantes Latinoamericanos (OLAS), que promueve el conocimiento y la comprensión de la cultura latinoamericana, y es miembro del Programa de Liderazgo Business Fellows.
La neoyorquina ingresó en Beta Gamma Sigma, la sociedad de honor de negocios internacionales de La Salle. Consiguió en Johnson & Johnson su primera experiencia en el mundo empresarial con unas prácticas como Global Functions Finance Co-Op.
Nayeli comparte más de su historia en una entrevista con AL DÍA.
Cuando estaba en la escuela, sabía que quería estudiar negocios, así que durante su proceso de selección se centró en universida-
des con programas de negocios internacionales. La Salle fue la primera que visitó y se dio cuenta de que prosperaría en un entorno más pequeño. Finalmente, decidió solicitar plaza en la universidad, por su proporción de 13 estudiantes por profesor.
“Me pareció que había más diversidad en comparación con las otras universidades a las que quería ir”, admite.
Señala que no es necesario saber qué carrera se quiere seguir mientras se está en la universidad, algo de lo que se dio cuenta después de hacer algunos cursos de nanzas y decidir cursar nanzas como una especialidad adicional. Como presidenta de OLAS, se centra en promover la diversidad y la concientización en el campus. Este papel le ha permitido desarrollar habilidades de liderazgo y aprender su estilo de liderazgo. OLAS es una organización inclusiva que acoge a estudiantes dispuestos a aprender y celebrar la cultura latina. Añade que aquellos interesados en aprender español y que quieran practicar su español son bienvenidos a unirse.
Nayeli también es miembro del Programa de Liderazgo Business Fellows, que le permitió obtener su primera experiencia corporativa como becaria en Johnson & Johnson. Solicitó las prácticas durante la pandemia y pudo “experimentar una cultura de empresa en la que se respeta y celebra la diversidad”, como asegura. Recibió una oferta para ampliar sus prácticas, aceptó y trabajó con J&J durante un año. Esto rea rmó que nanzas era la carrera adecuada para ella, pero no en el sector sanitario.
“Disfruté de las oportunidades de aprendizaje y de los contactos que pude establecer”, subraya y admite que su experiencia en J&J le inspiró para fundar Proyecto Dalia, organización sin ánimo de lucro.
Nayeli se inspiró en su difunta abuela, Elia, y en su primo, Davis, ambos fallecidos por cáncer. Combinó sus nombres y creó Proyecto Dalia. Inuenciada por el legado de Elia, defensora de la educación y educadora que formaba a comunidades de bajos ingresos, se sintió obligada a impartir el cambio en Ecuador, un estudiante a la vez.

“I’ve traveled to Ecuador multiple times. I’ve seen the di erent realities that people or individuals have over there,” she explained. “I’ve always had this urge to do something bigger than just go, but try to help them in any way.”
In November 2022, Proyecto Dalia was set in motion partnering with di erent nonpro ts and organizations in Ecuador to render services from toy drives and health checks to providing meal kits. is allowed her to establish herself in di erent communities while trying to build a team to support her vision. Even though these services were not in the education realm, it allowed Picón to connect with low-income families and realize how imperative it was for her to support this community.
“I want to rst navigate and see what I need to learn about it and make connections,” she commented.
Nayeli envisions being able to nance low-income students’ school supplies, provide assistance to a ord school uniforms, and eventually facilitate high-quality education in Ecuador.
Picón is still in the early stages of her nonpro t but is working on establishing and acquiring U.S. sponsorships that will allow someone in the U.S. to sponsor a child in Ecuador. Although Ecuador has a public and private education system, with the public system being government funded and in poor conditions, she hopes to be able to transfer students to private schools where they can obtain a high-quality education and attain economic mobility.z
allí. Siempre he tenido ese impulso de hacer algo más grande que solo ir, de tratar de ayudarlos de cualquier manera”.
En noviembre del 2022, Proyecto Dalia se asoció con diferentes organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro y organizaciones de Ecuador para prestar servicios, desde colectas de juguetes y chequeos médicos hasta reparticiones de kits de comida. Esto le permitió establecerse en diferentes comunidades mientras intentaba formar un equipo que apoyara su visión. Aunque estos servicios no estaban relacionados con la educación, permitieron a Picón conectarse con familias de bajos ingresos y darse cuenta de lo importante que era para ella apoyar a la comunidad.
“Primero, quiero navegar y ver qué necesito para aprender sobre ello y establecer conexiones”, comentó.
Nayeli prevé poder nanciar el material escolar de los estudiantes de bajos ingresos, proporcionar ayuda para costear los uniformes escolares y, con el tiempo, facilitar una educación de alta calidad en Ecuador.
Picón aún se encuentra en las primeras fases de su organización sin ánimo de lucro, pero está trabajando para establecer y adquirir patrocinios estadounidenses que le permitan a alguien en Estados Unidos apadrinar a un niño en Ecuador.
Aunque Ecuador tiene un sistema educativo público y privado, el sistema público está nanciado por el Gobierno y se encuentra en malas condiciones. Por eso, Picón espera poder trasladar a los estudiantes a escuelas privadas donde tengan acceso a una educación de alta calidad.z

Los sitios de votación que cumplen en su totalidad con los criterios federales y estatales son designados con una "F" que indica que es un edificio totalmente accesible, y con una "H" que indica que hay estacionamiento para discapacitados. Si un logar de votación no cumple en su totalidad con estos criterios federales y estatales, pero provee accesibilidad relativa con una pequeña ayuda en la entrada, entonces ese logar será designado con una "B" que indica que tiene una accesibilidad substancial. Si no hay disponible un lugar totalmente accesible, que cumpla con todos los criterios federales y estatales (designados como “FH”), como sitio de votación en su División de elección, la accesibilidad para votar será proporcionada mediante el uso de una Boleta Alternativa de acuerdo con las directrices expedidas por el Secretario del Estado.

April is Financial Literacy Month – a perfect time to start building a foundation for a healthy nancial future. Good nancial health is the foundation on which strong and resilient households, communities and economies are built, but the reality is, many struggle to manage their nancial daily lives.
In recognition of Financial Literacy Month, Chandra Williams, Chase Community Manager at the West Philadelphia Community Center Bank Branch offered top nancial tips to help achieve nancial freedom and build generational wealth.
1. Small steps lead to bigger opportunities: No matter what amount of money you have, taking small steps towards building a solid nancial foundation is key. Whether it’s saving a little more each month, starting to save for the rst time or monitoring your credit score, these steps can help you prepare for the unexpected while setting you up for long-term success.
2. Establish good credit: The main elements of securing a good credit score include paying your bills on time, the length of time you’ve had a credit history, and the amount and type of accounts you have. Potential lenders will use this information to determine your credit risk. Managing your nances wisely will help you establish strong credit, a practice that will pay off when you want to make larger purchases like a car or a home.
3. Embrace digital tools: Apps, online goal sheets and budget builders are a great way to manage your nances. Look into what digital tools your nancial partner offers. Whether it’s credit and identify monitoring, or setting up repeating automatic transfers from your checking account to your savings ac-
Abril es el Mes de la Educación Financiera, un momento perfecto para empezar a sentar las bases de un futuro nanciero saludable. Una buena salud nanciera es la base sobre la que se construyen hogares, comunidades y economías fuertes y resistentes, pero la realidad es que muchos luchan por gestionar su vida nanciera diaria. En reconocimiento al Mes de la Alfabetización Financiera, Chandra Williams, gerente comunitaria de Chase en la sucursal bancaria del centro comunitario del Oeste de Filadel a, ofrece seis consejos para conseguir la anhelada libertad nanciera y construir riqueza generacional.
1. Los pequeños pasos conducen a mayores oportunidades. No importa la cantidad de dinero que tenga, dar pequeños pasos hacia la construcción de una base nanciera sólida es clave. Ya sea ahorrar un poco más cada mes, comenzar a ahorrar por primera vez o monitorear su puntaje de crédito, estas acciones pueden ayudarlo a prepararse para lo inesperado, así como para el éxito a largo plazo.
2. Establecer un buen crédito. Los principales elementos para asegurar una buena puntuación crediticia incluyen el pago puntual de las facturas, el tiempo que ha tenido un historial crediticio y la cantidad y el tipo de cuentas que tiene. Los posibles prestamistas utilizarán esta información para determinar su riesgo crediticio. Gestionar sus nanzas con prudencia le ayudará a establecer un crédito sólido, una práctica que dará sus frutos cuando quiera hacer compras más grandes, como un coche o una casa.
3. Utilice las herramientas digitales. Las aplicaciones, las hojas de objetivos en línea y los creadores de presupuestos son una forma estupenda de gestionar sus nanzas. Averigüe qué herramientas digitales le ofrece su asesor nanciero. Estas herramientas le ayudarán a mantenerse al día con sus pagos y objetivos de ahorro, ya sea mediante el control del crédito y la identidad, o la con guración de transferencias automáticas recurrentes desde su cuenta corriente hacia su cuenta de ahorros.
count, these tools will help keep you on track with your payments and savings goals.
4. Include the whole family in the process: It’s never too early to get kids started on their nancial journey. Ask your bank about opening up a joint checking account geared towards children to help them establish good nancial habits. A joint account can offer features designed to help kids learn the importance of saving and meeting their nancial goals, whether it’s tracking their spending, creating recurring payments and setting spending limits, or being rewarded when completing chores and earning an allowance to deposit. Once your child understands the importance of saving the money they earn, they can begin to build savings habits that will last a lifetime.
5. Ask for help: Whether it’s meeting with a banker or talking to friends or family, conversations and advice can be critical to improving nancial health, from building a budget to more complex matters like saving for retirement.
6. Keep the conversation going: Talk with your partner or other family members regularly about your nancial goals and how you plan to achieve them, and check in with your children to discuss their nancial activity – whether it be what or where they’re spending, how much they’re earning, or their savings goal. These discussions all provide opportunities to keep money as part of your family conversations.
Establishing solid nancial habits can be a lifetime process, but it’s easier if you learn the fundamentals as early as possible. It’s never too early, or too late, to begin your journey, and this month is a great time to get started or recommit to your nancial health. For more nancial health tips, visit Chandra Williams at the Chase West Philadelphia Community Center Branch at 15 S. 52nd Street, and/or chase.com/ nancialgoals.z
4. Incluya a toda la familia en el proceso. Nunca es demasiado pronto para que los niños empiecen su recorrido nanciero. Consulte a su banco sobre la posibilidad de abrir una cuenta corriente conjunta para ayudarles a establecer buenos hábitos nancieros. Una cuenta conjunta puede ofrecer funciones diseñadas para ayudar a los niños a aprender la importancia del ahorro y de cumplir sus objetivos nancieros, ya sea controlando sus gastos, creando pagos periódicos y estableciendo límites de gasto, o recibiendo recompensas cuando realizan tareas y ganan una paga para ingresar. Una vez que su hijo entienda la importancia de ahorrar el dinero que gana, podrá empezar a crear hábitos de ahorro que le durarán toda la vida.
5. Pida ayuda. Ya sea reuniéndose con un banquero o hablando con amigos o familiares, las conversaciones y los consejos pueden ser fundamentales para mejorar la salud nanciera, desde la elaboración de un presupuesto hasta asuntos más complejos como ahorrar para la jubilación.
6. Mantenga la conversación. Hable regularmente con su pareja u otros miembros de la familia sobre sus objetivos nancieros y cómo piensa alcanzarlos, y consulte con sus hijos para hablar de su actividad nanciera, ya sea en qué o dónde gastan, cuánto ganan o su objetivo de ahorro. Todas estas conversaciones brindan la oportunidad de que el dinero forme parte de las conversaciones familiares.
Establecer hábitos nancieros sólidos puede ser un proceso que dure toda la vida, pero es más fácil si se aprenden los fundamentos lo antes posible. Nunca es demasiado pronto ni demasiado tarde para empezar, y este mes es un buen momento para iniciar o volver a comprometerse con su salud nanciera.

LA PARADA FORMA PARTE DE LA GIRA COURTESY OF THE MOB QUE EL ARTISTA REALIZARÁ POR 25 CIUDADES Y QUE FINALIZARÁ EL 10 DE MAYO EN SU CIUDAD NATAL.
Detroit’s rising rap-star BabyFace Ray is bringing his 25-city Courtesy Of The Mob tour to South Street May 3. The “Like Daisy Lane” rapper will be performing at the Theater of Living Arts, and be joined by longtime friend, collaborator, and fellow Detroiter Veeze.
The Motor City has re-emerged as a hip-hop powerhouse in recent years. Largely due to its street artists, and their laid-back portrayal of chasing money in Detroit’s unforgiving climate over fastpaced piano melodies and heavy 808s that captured the ear of rap fans across the globe. Now, virtually every charting rapper has hopped on a “Detroit-type beat,” and many have turned towards the city’s lyricists for collaborations.
Among the dozens of artists bubbling in the scene, BabyFace Ray stands out as the current face of Detroit rap. His 2022 albums FACE and MOB received critical acclaim, each one charting on the Billboard Top 100 while raking in millions of plays on streaming services. Publications including GQ, Complex, and Rolling Stone have deemed him the next rapper in line to reach superstardom.
Although Ray is currently branded as a new artist to keep an eye on, the 32-yearold rap-veteran’s career dates back to the mid 2000s. He was utilizing MySpace-era music-sharing platforms Soundclick and Crushpot while a member of the legendary rap-group Team Eastside. The devoted rapper continued releasing music throughout hip-hop’s dozens of sonic phases, honing his style in Detroit’s insular hip-hop community, while building a dedicated fanbase.
Babyface Ray’s unruf ed descriptions of life on the east side of Detroit allowed listeners to watch his maturation over the years as an artist and person. Projects like MIA Season Vol I and MIA Season Vol II, and the Last One Left solidi ed his status
BabyFace Ray, la nueva estrella del rap de Detroit, llevará su gira Courtesy Of The Mob a South Street el 3 de mayo. El rapero de Like Daisy Lane actuará en el Theater of Living Arts y estará acompañado por su viejo amigo, colaborador y compatriota Veeze.
La ‘Ciudad del Motor’ ha resurgido como potencia del hip-hop en los últimos años, en gran parte, gracias a sus artistas callejeros y a su relajado retrato de la persecución del dinero en el implacable clima de Detroit, sobre rápidas melodías de piano y potentes 808 que captaron el oído de los a cionados al rap de todo el mundo. Ahora, prácticamente todos los raperos que guran en las listas de éxitos han adoptado un “ritmo tipo Detroit”, y muchos han recurrido a los letristas de la ciudad para colaborar.
Entre las docenas de artistas que bullen en la escena, BabyFace Ray destaca como el rostro actual del rap de Detroit. Sus álbumes FACE y MOB, publicados en 2022, fueron aclamados por la crítica y entraron en el Top 100 de Billboard, además de acumular millones de reproducciones en los servicios de streaming. Publicaciones como GQ, Complex y Rolling Stone lo han considerado el próximo rapero en alcanzar el estrellato.
Aunque Ray es considerado un nuevo artista para tener en cuenta, la carrera de este veterano del rap de 32 años se remonta a mediados de la década del 2000. Utilizaba las plataformas de intercambio de música Soundclick y Crushpot de la era MySpace, cuando era miembro del legendario grupo de rap Team Eastside. El devoto rapero continuó lanzando música a lo largo de las docenas de fases sonoras del hip-hop, perfeccionando su estilo en la insular comunidad hip-hop de Detroit, al tiempo que construía una importante base de fans. Las imperturbables descripciones de Babyface Ray sobre la vida en el lado este de Detroit permitieron a los oyentes observar su maduración a lo largo de los años como artista y como persona. Proyectos como MIA Season Vol I y MIA Season Vol II, y The Last One Left consolidaron su estatus de leyenda underground a nales de la década del 2010. Ahora,

as an underground legend by the end of the 2010s. Now, Ray has broken into the mainstream working with rap titans Future, Wiz Khalifa, Pusha T, and Lil Durk. However, he’s maintained rm roots in his city, continuing relationships with Detroit rap-pioneers Icewear Vezzo, 42 Dugg, GT, and Peezy.
The three remaining members of the original band — Julio Briceño, José Rafael Torres, and Juan Manuel — were joined by over 70 different collaborators for Cool Love, who are all displayed on the colorful album cover done by Venezuelan cartoonist Hermann Mejía.
Notable features include Betsayda Machado, El Pollo Brito, SuperThriller, C-Funk, Ferraz, and Álvaro Paiva-Bimbo. The collaborative nature of the project re ects the attitude Los Amigos Invisibles maintained throughout their career, connecting with artists in their native country and throughout the Latin American music community.
Although the band’s musical capabilities have been universally acknowledged, Los Amigos Invisibles may be best known for their live performances.
The night at the TLA will also include a special guest set from Veeze, who established a cult-like following in 2019 after releasing his rst and only project Navy Wavy. Many consider this tape one of the best to come from the contemporary Detroit rap scene. His unbothered delivery and effortless wordplay over dreamy production instantly won over listeners. Since then, Veeze has kept a distance from the spotlight, periodically releasing singles, as he builds anticipation for his follow-up project Ganger. Tracks like “Law And Order,” “Let It Fly,” and “A&W” showcase his magnetic personality and elite ear for beats.

Despite making up 18.9% of the U.S. population, Latinos account for only around 5% of executives.
at disparity is something Torres believes needs to be addressed.
“We need to re ect the diversity of our customer base [and] the diversity of our employees. And so if you look at the broad demographic composition of the country…
it’s important to have that re ected in the executive ranks of companies,” Torres stated.
He added, “I also view myself as leaning into the e ort to make sure that we have good representation in the company from a Latino perspective at the manager and executive levels.”
His advice for people of color who want to go into sales or marketing is threefold; look for opportunities, apply for jobs, and be visible.z
Por eso, quiere asegurarse de que Comcast pueda llegar a todas las comunidades a las que presta servicio.
A pesar de constituir el 18,9 % de la población estadounidense, los latinos solo representan alrededor del 5 % de los ejecutivos. Esa disparidad es algo que Torres cree que hay que abordar. “Tenemos que re ejar la diversi-
dad de nuestra base de clientes y de nuestros empleados”, señaló.
Contó, además, que “si nos jamos en la amplia composición demográ ca del país, es importante que eso se re eje en las las ejecutivas de las empresas. Me veo a mí mismo apoyando ese esfuerzo”.
Su consejo para la gente de color que quiera dedicarse a las ventas o al marketing es triple: busquen oportunidades, soliciten trabajo y sean visibles. z
Parker cited her PHL Taking Care of Business Program that she launched in 2019, which hires community members to clean their own communities.
“We’re gonna put it on steroids,” she said of the program if she’s mayor.
When it came to representation, every candidate on stage said they would work to make sure their administrations had adequate representation compared to the demographics of the city, especially Latinos. However, only Deleon, Brown and Bloom named speci c
Latinos they would appoint to their cabinets. Bloom and Brown went with Quiñones Sánchez — who would later call it “insulting” — and Deleon named Captain Javier Rodriguez.
Similar unanimity, except for Oh, was shown when asked whether the candidates would designate parts of Latino North Philadelphia as historic cultural districts to preserve the history.
“If this is rst, then in the next four years, hopefully we’ll have three or four with di erent organizations with di erent focuses,” said Rev. Luis Cortes about the forum. “ is particular election is going to be close, so the 12-15,000 Latino votes are going to be a signi cant part of the outcome.” z
contrata a miembros de la comunidad para limpiar sus propias comunidades. “Vamos a ponerlo en esteroides”, indicó de su programa si es alcaldesa.
Cuando se trata de representación, todos los candidatos dijeron que trabajarían para asegurarse de que sus administraciones tengan la adecuada en comparación con la demografía de la ciudad, especialmente los latinos. Sin embargo, solo Deleon, Brown y Bloom nombraron a latinos especí cos para sus gabinetes. Bloom y Brown se decantaron
por Quiñones Sánchez, quien más tarde lo cali caría de “insultante”, y Deleon nombró al capitán Javier Rodríguez.
Una unanimidad similar, salvo en el caso de Oh, se mostró cuando se les preguntó a los candidatos si designarían partes del norte latino de Filadel a como distritos culturales históricos para preservar la historia.
Sobre el foro, el reverendo Luis Cortés explicó que “si este es el primero, entonces, en los próximos cuatro años, con suerte tendremos tres o cuatro con diferentes organizaciones con diferentes enfoques”. Señaló que “esta elección en particular va a ser reñida, así que los 12 mil o 15 mil votos latinos van a ser una parte importante del resultado”.z
district initiatives, including a safe zone resolution to assure immigrant parents it’s safe to send their kids to school, and that their personal information won’t be shared with ICE. Leyba-Martinez also supported the Spanish translation of all school board meetings. Outside of the school board, he
also restarted Little League baseball in East Camden in 2019.
“What would make me feel the best about all of this is motivating more people to do the same,” he continued. “When they feel that they want to be the person leading their city, they step up and do it.” z
zarles a los padres inmigrantes la seguridad de enviar a sus hijos a la escuela y que su información personal no se comparta con el ICE.
Leyba-Martínez también apoyó la traducción al español de todas las reuniones del consejo escolar. Fuera de la junta escolar,
también reinició las Pequeñas Ligas de Béisbol en East Camden, en el 2019.
“Lo que me haría sentir mejor de todo esto es motivar a más personas a hacer lo mismo. Cuando sienten que quieren ser la persona que lidera su ciudad, dan un paso adelante y lo hacen”, concluye. z

REFLEXIÓN SOBRE EL FIN DE UNA ERA EN LA POLÍTICA DE FILADELFIA, CON LA RENUNCIA DE MARÍA QUIÑONES SÁNCHEZ A LA CANDIDATURA A LA ALCALDÍA.
By | Por: NIGEL THOMPSON | AL DÍA THOUGHT LEADERSOn Easter Sunday, April 9, 2023, Philadelphia lost the chance to have its rst Latina mayor as María Quiñones Sánchez became the rst major Democratic candidate to drop out of the hotly-contested race.
As she told the Philadelphia Inquirer, “the obnoxious, obscene amount of money that is shaping the race just got away from us.”
A week earlier, the April campaignnance reports came out for all the candidates, and Quiñones Sánchez was one of two at the bottom of the pack with just under $800,000 raised. Only Derek Green had raised less, and he also dropped out shortly a er Quiñones Sánchez.
All other Democratic candidates brought in north of $1 million, either through grassroots e orts, PACs or self funding.
Still, her fellow competitors were sure to keep her name alive during last week’s mayoral forums — citing her recently-released Agenda Latina or celebrating her 14 years of public service, to name a few of the mentions.
ey were absolutely courting her for an endorsement, which she hasn’t revealed yet, but to reduce María’s impact to a short, 30-second answer at a forum, a two-paragraph tweet, or even a 500-word op-ed like this is not capable of telling her full legacy.
It’s not done being built — don’t get us wrong — she will be back in another leadership role shortly within Philadelphia or the region, but for now, Quiñones Sánchez deserves to re ect on what was transformative service to her district and the city as a whole.
Who better to re ect on that than the publication that’s featured her on its cover more than any other leader in its almost 30year history?
For AL DÍA, María Quiñones Sánchez epitomized — as a young community journalist and a seasoned citywide leader — the kind of story and journey that it still tries to
celebrate and will continue to as long as it still prints editions or maintains a website.
María was the AL DÍA model.
She was born in the community, raised in that community, elevated to become one of its leaders, and maintained a ghting spirit for it through every cathartic victory and crushing defeat.
ose ghts spanned from the streets of North Philadelphia to City Hall.
And we’re also not just talking about the Philadelphia Latino community that Quiñones Sánchez called home.
Sure, she was the community’s only (and rst Latina) voice on City Council for 14 years, beating the Democratic establishment’s e orts to upend her every step of the way. But as she grew in City Council and became more calculated with her ghts, she realized the similarities more than the di erences between neighborhoods like her own and those across Philadelphia.
Her perspective was rooted in the Latino experience, but wise to realize that no matter the issue, it wasn’t always just a Latino experience. And as she fought for issues pertinent to her Latino community and advocated for its betterment, the city as a whole would follow on that same path of progress and improvement.
at mission is carried on today by those following in her footsteps at City Hall, but also by anyone inspired by Quiñones Sánchez’s story — whether we told it or not (we probably did).
So thank you María for allowing us to follow your journey this far and we can’t wait to hear about what’s next!z
El domingo de Pascua, el pasado 9 de abril, Filadel a perdió la oportunidad de tener su primera alcaldesa latina, ya que María Quiñones Sánchez se convirtió en la primera candidata demócrata importante en abandonar la disputadísima carrera.
Como ella misma declaró al Philadelphia Inquirer, “la odiosa y obscena cantidad de dinero que está con gurando la carrera se nos ha escapado”.
Una semana antes, salieron los informes nancieros de la campaña de abril de todos los candidatos. Quiñones Sánchez era uno de los dos últimos del pelotón, con algo menos de 800.000 dólares recaudados. Sólo Derek Green había recaudado menos y también abandonó poco después que Quiñones Sánchez.
Todos los demás candidatos demócratas recaudaron más de un millón de dólares, ya fuera a través de esfuerzos de base, PAC o auto nanciación.
Aun así, sus competidores se aseguraron de mantener vivo su nombre durante los foros de la Alcaldía de la semana pasada, citando su Agenda Latina recientemente publicada o celebrando sus 14 años de servicio público, por nombrar algunas de las menciones.
No cabe duda de que la estaban cortejando para obtener su apoyo, que ella aún no ha revelado. Pero reducir el impacto de María a una breve respuesta de 30 segundos en un foro, a un trino de dos párrafos o incluso a un artículo de opinión de 500 palabras como este no es capaz de re ejar todo su legado.
No se ha terminado de construir —no nos malinterpreten—. Pronto, ella estará de vuelta en otro papel de liderazgo, en Filadel a o en la región. Por ahora, Quiñones Sánchez merece la re exión sobre lo que fue un servi-
cio transformador para su distrito y la ciudad en su conjunto.
¿Quién mejor para hacer esa re exión que la publicación que la ha llevado a su portada más que a ningún otro líder en sus casi 30 años de historia?
Para AL DÍA, María Quiñones Sánchez personi caba, como joven periodista comunitaria y experimentada líder de la ciudad, el tipo de historia y trayectoria que aún intenta celebrar y seguirá celebrando mientras siga imprimiendo ediciones o manteniendo un sitio web. María era la modelo de AL DÍA.
Nació en la comunidad, creció en ella, se convirtió en una de sus líderes y mantuvo un espíritu de lucha por ella, a través de cada victoria catártica y cada derrota aplastante.
Esas luchas abarcaron desde las calles del norte de Filadel a hasta el Ayuntamiento, y no estamos hablando solo de la comunidad latina de Filadel a a la que Quiñones Sánchez consideraba su hogar.
Sin duda, fue la única voz de la comunidad (y la primera latina) en el Ayuntamiento que, durante 14 años, superó los esfuerzos de la clase dirigente demócrata por derrocarla en cada paso del camino. Pero a medida que crecía en el Ayuntamiento y se volvía más calculadora con sus luchas, se dio cuenta de las similitudes, más que de las diferencias, entre barrios como el suyo y los de toda Filadel a.
Su perspectiva estaba arraigada en la experiencia latina, pero supo darse cuenta de que, fuera cual fuera el problema, no siempre se trataba sólo de una experiencia latina. Y a medida que ella luchaba por cuestiones pertinentes para su comunidad latina y abogaba por su mejora, la ciudad en su conjunto seguiría el mismo camino de progreso.
Esa misión la llevan a cabo hoy quienes siguen sus pasos en el Ayuntamiento, pero también cualquiera que se sienta inspirado por la historia de Quiñones Sánchez, la hayamos contado o no (probablemente lo hicimos).
Así que gracias, María, por permitirnos seguir tu viaje hasta aquí y ¡estamos impacientes por saber qué será lo próximo!z
