The good latina, gender roles and marianismo

Is That Us? Podcast by Itzel Diaz

Episode notes

Welcome to "Is That Us? Podcast,” a podcast where we talk about Latina representation in film and television and why it matters.

In today's episode, we discuss the "good Latina" stereotype and its relationship to gender roles and marianismo. Our guest for today are two amazing mujeres that I am lucky to call friends, Mayra Chavez, and Karely Ordaz.

Join us as we explore the ways in which this stereotype reinforces limiting gender roles and expectations and how it can be harmful to Latinas.
