This week I spoke with longtime immigrant rights expert Cecilia Muñoz about Welcome.US, a website that connects people to the process of resettling newcomers. Our Body Politic contributors Diane Wong and Jenn Jackson, researchers at the GenForward survey, shared their findings about the favorability of both major parties with young people of color. Author and global citizen Chloe Dulce Louvouezo embarked on an exploration of identity in her book, “Life, I Swear: Intimate Stories From Black Women on Identity, Healing and Self-Trust.” And on Sippin’ the Political Tea, Errin Haines of the 19th, Tiffany Jeffers of Georgetown Law and I dissected the week’s news, going through the major elections this month and what they say about the issues getting voters to the polls.
