Love for Los Angeles, Plus Jess Morales Rocketto on Politics, Media, and Culture
Today on the pod, we’re speaking with Jess Morales Rocketto, Executive Director of Maremoto, which builds a world where Latinos take charge of our lives through unified power in politics, media, and culture. Jess is a powerhouse and co-founder of groups like Poderistas, Supermajority, and Families Belong Together. She is also the co-owner and founder of Latino Media Network, an audio focused media company for Latinos with one of the largest capital raises for a Latina-owned startup in history.
Before we speak to Jess, Delsy and I talk about how we would each spend a perfect Sunday in L.A.
