S2 Orgullo en AfroLatinidad: Being Black and Latinx -- ¡Neece is Looking Bilingüe! |
|
Growing up feeling a tug of war between being Black & Puerto Rican, Neece decided long ago she does not need to fit your preconceived boxes. Listen to her take on her PR Spanish, why she sings opera for fun, & how she's guiding her multicultural children through the journey of being themselves.
Meet Neece Harris! Wife. Mother. Career Woman & Co-Founder of Intentioned, LLC. A diverse greeting card and small gifts company. IG: @intentioned.co www.intentioned.co --- ¡Looking Bilingüe! is a celebration of biculturalism and bilingualism in the Latinx community through storytelling. It is conceived, directed and produced by Jade Cintrón Báez , a Latina, or more specifically, an Ameri-Cuba-Rican, from New Jersey. This project is a growing collection of vibrant conversations about both the hilarious but also difficult realities of “Looking Bilingual” such as skin color, Spanish language ability, Spanglish tendencies and how this has impacted lives personally and professionally. With these interviews come the realness of native speakerism, colorism, plain ol' racism and the struggles to assimilate sometimes to more than one culture all at the same time. ¡Looking Bilingüe! is a vulnerable but fun collection that addresses the multiple identities that exist in the Latinx Community.
