UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute (LPPI) in Los Angeles Times: “Latinx Files: How a famous pianist picked a fight with reggaeton”


On Wednesday the UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute published a report that found that just 4% of op-eds published by the Los Angeles Times between January 2020 and May 2021 were written by Latinx authors. They also found that 95% of Times op-eds published during that period “made no explicit mention of Latinos or Latino communities.” Yikes.
