Welcome, beautiful listeners, to Encuentros Latinx in 2022. Do you like science fiction and fantasy? Do you want to support new and emerging Black and Latinx authors? Well, you’ll be pleased to know that I have a fantasy short story slated to be published in a young adult Latinx anthology called Where Monsters Lurk and Magic Hides. This is one of three anthologies being published by Bee Infinite Publishing, a Black-owned indie publisher. There’s a Kickstarter running right through January 22 to make these books possible with a wide range of donation levels. This is not only your way of pre-ordering these books, but it’s also an opportunity to support marginalized writers that face an uphill battle with a publishing industry dominated by whiteness. Find Bee Infinite Publishing on Instagram and Twitter to learn more about this campaign and thank you for any donation or spreading of the word you do.

You will be blessed to know that the holidays are not over here at Encuentros Latinx. My guest Lisbeth Melendez Rivera tells us all about the months long winter holidays she remembers celebrating in Puerto Rico. Then, we get into one of the most nuanced and in-depth discussions of the term Latinx that I’ve had the pleasure of having on this show.
