Awards season is yet another reminder that diversity in U.S. media is seriously lagging. In 2019, only 5% of the speaking roles in the top 100 movies went to Latinx actors even though we represent 18% of the US population. This episode explores how we can do better and identifies artists who are working to broaden the landscape of Latinx identity across various platforms.

#Radar2021 is a weekly news show that dives into current issues and breaks them down through various perspectives across the Latinx community.
