LAPS Music in Politics Event

Join us for a dynamic discussion exploring how Latino music shapes political identity and power in the United States — from the border-corridos of Chalino Sánchez, which tell stories of migration, struggle, and survival in the immigrant experience, to the global rise of Bad Bunny, whose music and cultural presence have stirred political debates and representation of Latino voices in mainstream U.S. culture. We’ll unpack how artists use rhythm and lyrics to challenge stereotypes, influence civic engagement, and give voice to Latino communities across generations. Expect big beats, powerful stories, and real talk about Latinos en Estados Unidos and the politics behind the music that moves us.
