There’s no more urgent time to be in community than now. Amid the fear, shock, and uncertainty surrounding Trump’s reelection — and the significant role Latinx people played in the outcome — many of us are left asking: what can we do moving forward? Our recommendation? Get more involved with our local Latinx communities and grassroots organizations. In a city full of immigrants, workers, artists, and students, it’s essential to strengthen our networks and seek new ones.

After the premiere of Eva Longoria’s Flamin’ Hot at South by Southwest last year, it’s difficult to imagine the festival surpassing that level of Latinidad this year.

Alright, picture this – comedy and sensitivity doing a constant cha-cha, where what cracked us up yesterday is stepping on toes today. USC Dornsife’s Lanita Jacobs, associate professor of American studies and ethnicity and anthropology, wisely notes, “the jokes that once had us in stitches a decade ago might not elicit the same laughter today.” In the audience of comedy clubs, we’re on a journey where the punchlines of yesteryear fall flat in the evolving landscape of societal change.
