Description

Maria and Julio dive into some of the biggest stories of the week! They give an update on the latest with the coronavirus pandemic in the U.S. and talk about how President-elect Joe Biden's latest nominations will impact the current health crisis. They also discuss the latest with the case of Army specialist Vanessa Guillén and give their thoughts on the new Netflix biopic "Selena: The Series."   ITT Staff Picks: - Don't miss Julio's latest opinion piece for The Washington Post on how Joe Biden can deliver solutions for Latino voters.  - "The fact that it’s unheard of for top military leaders to pay with their careers and to be charged with criminal negligence—that’s the problem," says Pam Campos-Palma in Tina Vasquez's latest piece for Prism on the firing of 14 Fort Hood officers following the murder of Vanessa Guillén. - "Netflix's new biopic 'Selena: The Series' rehashes the same story for the umpteenth time—and sends a clear message about which stories Hollywood is willing to tell," writes Alex Zaragoza for Vice.
