Last week, I had the pleasure of taking my family to see the new DC film, Blue Beetle.

For too long, Hollywood has relied on Latino stereotypes, creating narratives about us in America that lead to misunderstandings & even violence towards our communities. Positive Latino representation in movies like Blue Beetle is an important counteract to this.

My wife and I were excited to take our kids to see this movie because it gave them a chance to see themselves as superheroes on the big screen.

Hollywood has always pushed Latino stereotypes, and it’s time we change that narrative. Will you chip in $10 today to support my work in the fight for more positive diverse representation? [[link removed]]

I’ve always been outspoken in the fight for diverse representation in film. This year, I submitted 27 Latino-driven nominations for the Library of Congress’ 2023 National Film Registry.

But there’s still so much more to be done.

If you’re with me, will you pitch in $10 now to support my fight for diverse representation in Congress, the entertainment industry, and in our country as a whole? [[link removed]]
