Carina Paulino is an Educator & Spoken word poet from Philadelphia,PA. Attended Shippensburg University and received a Bachelors of Arts in English. Soon after she became a High School Spanish teacher for Philadelphia Charter Schools. In 2017 she was part of a spoken word play directed by Speak2mysoul & the same year won 1st place at the Puerto Rican day parade talent showcase⁠This episode was recorded right after the intensive 2 week #blacklivesmatter protest where people showed up in large numbers all across the US.  This was a time of confusion, angst and overflow of emotions. We discuss how we are both still learning about what it means to use certain phrases, statement and what it means to stand along side this movement and how to continue to keep up with all the moving parts⁠Carina speaks on her experiences of being an Afro-Latina to immigrant Dominican parents who didn't see themselves as black and how she needed to unlearn a lot of cultural beliefs. Through poetry she has been able to express how she has navigated through finding her Identity but also educating others that Latinx are not exempt from black issues. The Latin community is always multifaceted and multi-dimensional which is a partial reason for some groups, like Afro-Latinos to be polarized within our community but as Carina says, "being Black doesn't take away my Latinidad"

Latinos are known to have witty one liners or sayings that are understood amongst our family and friends. In fact we are sure we can conversations with just dichos. They are fun, rhyme and can sum up one thought.But what about the sayings we hear about money growing up? For Karen and Carmin some of the dichos or beliefs that their Latin parents had about money were taken as fact as they grew up and impacted how they handled money and even interactions with co-workers. In this episode we introduce an amazing book written by a Mexican American Author - Louis Barajas, " The Latino Journey to Financial Greatness: 10 Steps to Creating Wealth and Happiness for You and Your Family"Barajas witnessed first hand the barriers that Latinos have when it comes to money. He went back to his home town of Boyle Heights which is prominently Latino in hopes of helping everyone become financial stable but cultural beliefs became barriers so that he can help. These are the same barriers that Karen and Carmin can correlate back to the dichos they grew up with.
