It was great being quoted in the Minneapolis Star Tribune today! I talked about the importance of emotional intelligence and integrating emotions into business decisions for better outcomes--both for the business and broader society.

"How can you be a feminist and listen to reggaeton?"
This single question led @PatVelzqz down a reggaeton rabbit hole and eventually led to the creation of @hastabajoprojct, the very first Puerto Rican reggaeton archive. 🇵🇷

It's been over 60 years since the FDA first approved the birth control pill. But did you know that women in Puerto Rico were instrumental in its creation?
The first large-scale human trials of the pill were conducted on over 1,500 Puerto Rican women, and it came at a cost. 🧵
Very proud to have moderated this webinar with two fantastic speakers! ....y, como siempre, orgulloso ser 🇵🇷

In 2021 #UnitedShades did an extended show on policing. In the wake of the Memphis police’s killing of Tyre Nichols, I struggle w/ what I can say differently than what I’ve said before at the far too many times like this. I feel the same way I felt then. It’s on @discoveryplus.

🎉VICTORY: A second judge has blocked enforcement of Indiana's abortion ban — this time on the grounds of religious freedom.
Abortion will remain legal in Indiana while our litigation continues.
Great podcast about using reggaetón vehicle to discuss social issues.
Hi, Twitter!
Listen to the full conversation I had with @mel_villodas & @andresghincapie for their @Mix_ed_tape podcast this past spring all about reggaetón, Puerto Rico, pan-Caribbean flows, race, gender, etc. Had a wonderful time & I hope y'all enjoy!

A great summary for anyone interested in understanding Puerto Rico's 🇵🇷 history with the US and how this impacts recovery after natural disasters.
Climate resilient infrastructure is important, but it won’t happen in Puerto Rico unless we look at the myriad ways colonialist policies have held it back. For @voxdotcom:
