Today, more than half of adults get some of their news from social media. In that shifting media landscape, 27-year-old activist and political influencer Carlos Eduardo Espina has built an audience of more than 20 million across platforms by translating current news and immigration issues into accessible information for Spanish-speaking communities.
In this episode, Jorge and Paola sit down with Carlos to talk about how he became one of the most-followed – and trusted – Latino voices in the country and the responsibility and the pressure that comes with speaking to millions of people online. They also discuss why Democratic politicians, including presidential hopefuls, have sought his advice and what he believes is driving the rise of the manosphere among Latino men.
