Black, Latino and American: An Afro-Latina Voter

5m 04s

Keyanna Ortiz-Cedeño is an Afro-Latina voter and a UC Berkeley graduate based in the San Francisco Bay Area. As someone raised in rural Texas and has lived on both coasts, Ortiz-Cedeño reflects on the role of Afro-Latinos in a national conversation around the “Latino Vote.” With the first mixed-race Black woman running for president, she feels Afro-Latinos are a poorly understood voting bloc.
