Monserrat Padilla, Rocio Carranza and Jake Prendez embody different shapes of activism within the Seattle Latinx community and outlining towns. From opening cultural centers that support and bring together community to political efforts in defense of Dreamers and being a resource for those terrorized by ICE, these three individuals support and defend their Latinx community in ways typically not highlighted in the news. Together, they describe their experiences of growing up as minorities, defining what it means to be Latinx and discovering their place within Seattle.
