#Humitas always remind me of Saturday mornings in #NYC. This was a rare treat in our Dominican neighborhood. As a second gen #Ecuadorian, I didn’t grow up eating humitas, but I grew up watching my parents eat them. So now, I buy them, freeze them, and when I miss home, I pop one in the air fryer.

I used to sit at my own graduations wondering what it would take for me, an Ecuadorian kid from pre-gentrified 1980’s NYC, to be on that stage watching graduation from that perspective. I bring that child every time i attend graduation. Congratulations to all the #MontclairStateUniversity graduates!

A great quote by Roxane Gay about identity politics and how the mere mention of it rattles people.

On Monday, November 11, 2024 i spoke with new teaching faculty at #MontclairStateUniversity
I spoke about the faculty embracing an HSI organizational identity to their faculty identity and consider the implications of what it means to serve students in their classrooms. So much work to do!
