a LATTO thought evaluates contemporary misperceptions about mixed raceness through the lenses of history, science studies, and personal perspectives in a way that is pro-Black, antiracist, and self-critical. The intent is to arm individuals with the clarity of how systems of law and power shape our feelings about who — not ‘what’ — we as individuals are so that we can begin to reshape the societies in which we collectively live. After all, we’re all already mixed. We’re simply taught to not see it that way.

This Loving Day, CA reflects on the history of anti-miscegenation laws that were enforced on Filipino migrant workers as they moved further into the valleys of Southern California, as written in Alex S. Fabros Jr's (former Professor of Asian American Studies at San Francisco State University) article "When Hilario Met Sally." [http://www.positivelyfilipino.com/magazine/when-hilario-met-sally-the-fight-against-anti-miscegenation-laws] // Music by Makaya McCraven [https://www.makayamccraven.com/] from his albums Universal Beings and Universal Beings E&F Sides.
