Nuestras Historias, Nuestro Poder event in Los Angeles 5.2

On May 2, 2024, the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice hosted “Nuestras Historias, Nuestro Poder” at The Fig House in Highland Park, Los Angeles. This event, co-hosted with #WeAllGrow Latina, marked the 30th anniversary of the Latina Institute.

The night was graced by the presence of Alejandra Campoverdi, a bestselling author and reproductive health advocate. Alejandra shared profound insights from her memoir, FIRST GEN, which chronicles her journey as a first-generation Mexican-American navigating the complexities of identity, ambition, and societal expectations. Her story resonated deeply with the audience, highlighting the power of personal narratives in driving social change. We were also joined by DJ Linda Nuves, floral arrangements by Como la Flor, and our bookseller Tia Chucha’s.
