This is a must read from ⁦@GustavoArellano⁩ on the changing Latino electorate! California Latinos have become more skeptical of undocumented immigrants. What changed? - Los Angeles Times latimes.com/california/story…

Column: California Latinos have become more skeptical of undocumented immigrants. What changed?

This hardening by Latinos doesn’t surprise me one bit. In a state where an estimated 83% of Latinos are of Mexican heritage, the changing faces of illegal immigration are drawing less and less...

When the judge said, “It’s difficult to understand why he decided to throw it all away,” any empathy I had for Huizar vanished, despite our shared background.

You don’t have to take my word for it, but maybe you’ll listen to Obama. “If you want to solve the problem, you have to take in the whole truth, and you have to admit that nobody’s hands are clean.”

There ARE climate solutions within arm's reach. Like 15 minutes cities. But one of the biggest barriers is disinformation, including from very powerful people. NPR's. @juliaradio takes us on a tour of the idea and the pushback:npr.org/2023/10/08/120395082…

It's a global climate solution — if it can get past conspiracy theories and NIMBYs

The "15-minute city" is an urban planning concept that aims to increase quality of life and reduce planet-heating pollution. But it faces obstacles, including conspiracy theories.
