Veronica has defied all odds and social expectations as she finishes up her PhD program and continues her research at a top ranking University.
Listen in as we discuss her work, specifically on Latinas and the carceral system.
THANK YOU so much @v.l.g.209 for sharing time, space and your intelligence with us. We thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and are super excited to partner with you in the very near future!!!
Together we will break down the current systems and inequities that fail too many and work on building up community care instead.
Anyone that may be struggling or feel like they just don’t belong, know that you are not alone and YOU ARE HERE ON PURPOSE! All of our stories look different. We just need to meet each other with love and kindness and do our part in dissolving the stigmas and prejudices that surround us.
Sending you all the LOVE you need and then some to spread around!
So much GRATITUDE to the following folks that made this all possible:
