DAYDA: Recent Episodes
teamDAYDA
Join Latinx host, Karen Sanchez, a Salvadoreña recording from Los Angeles to discuss the feeling of DAYDA or De Aquí y de Allá (rooted from a common Spanish-language refrain meaning, “I’m neither from here nor there”) and how teaming up to reclaim the narrative— stating that we are from here and from there—and holding all aspects of our identities with equal significance, we can find a true sense of belonging.
That’s a wrap friends, fans, and fam. We worked hard to bring you Season 2 and we can’t wait to work on the next! As a thank you we’re sending you off with an April Tarot reading by @lagitana_moon 🌙
