Jennifer Lopez.
I’ve grown up with JLO’s media since I was a kid. Her ability to capture Selena Quintanilla in a hollywood movie led me to believe that people of color could break boundaries while simultaneously bringing positive representation to Mexican Americans and OUR culture. I’m proud, as a person of color, to say SHE DID bring change and representation.
Selena Quintanilla not erasing Black struggle for representation.
Jennifer Lopez took the spotlight in the 2020 Super Bowl and brought controversy upon Latino/Latina/Latinx people, my name and what I stand for in this country. As much as I support women and their accomplishments in a patriarchy society that gives little to no credit for women, I do NOT stand by women who choose to push their own agenda over solidarity.
Not in my Latinx name. We do not sacrifice Black people and Black struggle in the name.of our representation. https://t.co/xzpgxMfknf

Jennifer Lopez being a pendeja AND taking advantage of Black struggle/erasure at the NFL.
I do not stand by Jennifer Lopez and her choice to erase the struggle of Black people for representation. I believe Black people deserve better representation than this pendeja, Jennifer Lopez, is claiming.
My name will not support the erasure of Black people and their struggle for representation. Period.
JLO really out here signing autographs and not organizing women to get their roe vs. wade rights back
