The green scarf, or ‘pañuelo verde’ isn't just a piece of fabric—it’s a powerful symbol of the feminist movement and the fight for abortion and reproductive rights. As we near Election Day, reproductive rights are a major issue. This year, candidates' positions on reproductive rights, including access to abortion, have become central to their platforms.
Learn about the ‘green scarf’ movement. This emblem has united women in the struggle for choice from its origins in Argentina to the world. While our hermanas in Latin America were experiencing progress with reproductive and abortion rights, the United States has been the polar opposite.

Hollywood is slowly waking up to the power of Latinx representation, but it doesn’t come without advocacy and push from our community and Latina superhero creator/writers like Kayden Phoenix of A La Brava @LatinaSuperheroes who recently spoke on a panel titled ‘Enter The Latina Superhero...’ at Comic-Con in San Diego, California.
A La Brava, reshapes narratives and highlights real-world issues with Latina superhero characters.
With Latinxs making up a significant part of the movie-going audience, there's a triple win on the horizon: increased revenue, diverse storytelling, and a welcoming industry for Latino professionals both behind-the-scenes and in front.

Latinos in the U.S. face stigma for speaking Spanish, rooted in historical and renewed discrimination.
Despite increased discrimination of Latinos during the Trump presidential era, speaking Spanish should not be shunned or quieted, we should speak loud and proud!

In honor of Marielle Franco's birthday, #BoldLatina honors her significant contribution to Brazilian politics and activism.
Marielle was a 38-year old, Black, gay, feminist councilwoman who grew up in the favelas, the poorest neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro.
Her life was dedicated to fighting against corruption, police violence, and inequality. Elected to Rio's City Council in 2016, she quickly became a powerful advocate for marginalized communities.
Her fearless stance against the city's entrenched corruption and brutal violence made her a target.
Tragically, she was assassinated in 2018, but her spirit and mission continue to inspire millions worldwide. According to NBC News, the alleged masterminds behind Franco’s killing were arrested, but justice still remains.
The legacy Marielle left behind exemplifies the power of courage and resilience against Brazil’s corruption issues.
