Maná just destroyed Nicky Jam on their IG.
Mana says they support the protection of human rights for Latinos around the world and there is no amount of money or publicity that could change that.
MANA will also remove a collaboration they did with Nicky from all digital formats.

A great piece by @JulioCapoJr in @madebyhistory outlining the long standing history of LGBTQ+ tourism in the state of Florida and the recent efforts to squash that and limit the rights of LGBTQ+ residents.

....and, because I finished The Overseer Class two weeks early, I had time to do another draft (and attend the Venice Film Festival) before handing it off to my editors and STILL turned it in on by deadline to @AmistadBooks @HarperCollins 💅🏾
