Note from GLAAD
Brian Pacheco, Spanish-Language Media Strategist at GLAADAs we highlight the many complexities of our heritage it's also a time to dig into the stereotypes that surround us. We've been called many things, some that we embrace less than others — such as the stereotype that Latinos are homophobic by culture.
A very nuanced piece by Lilia Luciano that emphasizes Latino support for LGBT issues, as well the need for more education, as is the case for all communities. Includes interviews with GLAAD's Monica Trasandes and Aaron McQuade.
