Goddess Musings – Soy Latina, no?

“I joke that I’m a media hound, but in reality, I try to take as many public speaking gigs as I can get to practice and to get them under my belt in hopes that one day to start charging for my services. So a week ago I got an email from an alumni group that I belong to (not my college thou) if I could fill in for someone who cancelled. After a few emails with the organizers (students) and thinking that I had the mission of the meeting & audience well in hand, I accepted.

I was wrong.

As soon as I walked in and heard the first speaker, I knew I was toast. It was a meeting with all Latino students and some parents (many of whom only spoke Spanish). Not only that, but the attitude of the students was one of disgust once this white Latina opened her mouth. “
