Hola Friends! We continue our season kick-off with the second part of our two-part series: The fight for marriage equality in Baja. In this second part, we join Alejandro, a policy analyst and queer rights activist from Mexicali. Through the power of social media, Alejandro was able to mobilize the masses in favor of an initiative that successfully repealed the same-sex marriage ban in the state of Baja. You don't want to miss the conclusion of this historic achievement! Join us as he shares his story. Tune in to listen! @portofentrypod ************** Port of Entry has whole new set of stories for you, this time centered around LGBTQ+ issues.
