Amelia Bethel & Karen Loewy Movilla's interactive exploration of Latinx identity.
Karen and Amelia are two Latinas attempting to prove their Latinidad (attributes shared by Latin American people) by embodying every stereotype that the media, their peers, and even their families have fed to them their entire lives. Using a talk show format, they invite the audience to participate in their exploration of identity through interactive segments, offering advice, and asking unanswerable questions.
Drawing from their own lived experiences, as well as the experiences of Latiné icons, Karen and Amelia will explore the issues of identity, fetishization, and assimilation, as well as the joy & uniqueness that comes with being a Latina, and attempt to make sense of their place in the world.
