How Latine People are Excluded in the Media

Clip: Special | 48s

"You can't be 20% of the population and be less than 1% of the stories. That's exclusion." Actor and director John Leguizamo and Felix Sanchez, co-founder of the National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts, discuss the "digital segregation" of Latine people in the media.
