YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

You're tuning into Yellow Seeds Magazine's new series, "The Grounded Letters" (details are below).

Xavier and Ximena will debate why "Latino is Already Inclusive" or why "Latinx is Unifying and Necessary." There will be no moderator. The conversation will consist of these two individuals doing what human beings do every day, talk. Tune in, Share, and subscribe to the Yellow Seeds Magazine YT channel!

Yellow Seeds Magazine is excited to debut our three-phase experimental project, "The Grounded Letters," where two people engage in civil debate by exchanging essays for the public. These essays will express their differing perspectives on a cultural topic. We're premiering with Xavier Bonilla and Ximena Del Cerro on the terms "Latinx and Latino."

These words "Latinx and Latino" continue to be a point of contention in the Latino/Latinx community. Xavier and Ximena are offering their candid opinions and experiences as Latino/Latinx to insightfully share "Why Latino is Already Inclusive?" and "Why Is "Latinx" Inclusive, Necessary and Unifying?"

Xavier and Ximena are thoughtful individuals who have a clear care about their community and the value of historical preservation, progression, and inclusivity but see two different routes to attaining them.

Phase 1: - Xavier and Ximena's first essays, "Why Latino is Already Inclusive?" and "Why Is "Latinx" Inclusive, Necessary and Unifying?" will be published on yellowseedsmagazine.com. ( Jan 2 )
