TGIF!

Another week goes by, and we still can’t believe how fast this year is going by.

These last few days have been fantastic if we’re being honest. Between the celebration of International Women’s Day (which is every day here at BELatina) and Bad Bunny’s birthday, this has been a remarkable week.

From thought-provoking essays to the best feminism books of the moment, these are the best stories of the week.

Every Latine deserves to work in a passionate space in their chosen industry. They deserve to thrive and excel in their dream job and make a living out of what makes them happy. On the surface, each of us — from musicians to writers, engineers to astronauts, and beyond the ever-evolving career spectrum — seem to be completely different. However, we all experience similar situations at our core that ultimately connect us back to our communities. At the end of the day, we are all striving to do our best and putting every inch of our passion into our chosen labor of love.

This is precisely why, for many Millennials Latinas, the 90s were so impactful. People who looked like us were the main characters. TV shows of the 90s gave foot to some of the most iconic women of our time. These eight ladies had the looks, the charm, the talent to have the entire country wooing over them.

Stan culture — a portmanteau of “stalker” and “fan” — is strong. While it’s a blessing for celebrities to have these devoted fans to support their artistry in certain situations, there is also a bitter side to the phenomenon. Some fans take it too far — especially in American pop culture.
