<v Speaker 1>This is Latino USA, the Radio Journal of News and

2
00:00:03.920 --> 00:00:09.080
<v Speaker 1>Kurturre Latino USA. Latin Latino USA. I'm Maria Inojosa. We

3
00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:12.800
<v Speaker 1>bring you stories that are underreported but that mattered to you,

4
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:14.360
<v Speaker 1>overlooked by the wrestling media.

5
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:16.720
<v Speaker 2>And while the country is struggling to deal with these.

6
00:00:16.520 --> 00:00:19.239
<v Speaker 1>Week listen to the stories of Black and Latino Studios

7
00:00:19.400 --> 00:00:24.400
<v Speaker 1>United Latino Front, a cultural renaissance organizing at the forefront

8
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:25.279
<v Speaker 1>of the movement.

9
00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:30.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm Maria Inojosa.

10
00:00:31.040 --> 00:00:34.240
<v Speaker 3>I think that the most important thing to combat this

11
00:00:34.400 --> 00:00:38.760
<v Speaker 3>information and misinformation is learned to use or improve your

12
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:44.000
<v Speaker 3>skills and critical thinking. Your skill is about how I

13
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:49.120
<v Speaker 3>consume the information, because a lot of information is available

14
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:54.520
<v Speaker 3>to everybody, but nobody teach you how to consume that.

15
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>From and PRX, It's Latino USA.

16
00:01:02.760 --> 00:01:04.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm Mariao Josa.

17
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Today this informacion how to combat disinformation in our Spanish

18
00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:12.480
<v Speaker 1>speaking communities. It's a new episode in our election year

19
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:14.560
<v Speaker 1>series The Latino Factor.

20
00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:15.680
<v Speaker 2>How We Vote.

21
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.160
<v Speaker 1>For decades now, every new election cycle in the United

22
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:30.399
<v Speaker 1>States brings with it disinformation campaigns. There are plenty of

23
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.320
<v Speaker 1>dubious videos out there that would have you believe US

24
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:37.160
<v Speaker 1>election officials really are up to something.

25
00:01:37.440 --> 00:01:40.840
<v Speaker 4>Tech companies are struggling to curb the spread of misinformation

26
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.880
<v Speaker 4>and disinformation this election year.

27
00:01:43.080 --> 00:01:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Election interference and targeted disinformation campaigns on voter fraud are

28
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:50.840
<v Speaker 2>a real threat in the upcoming US election.

29
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:55.800
<v Speaker 1>And studies have shown that Latinos are more likely to

30
00:01:55.880 --> 00:01:58.400
<v Speaker 1>consume and share misinformation.

31
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:04.000
<v Speaker 3>We understand and the Spanish speaking communities are more vulnerable

32
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:09.000
<v Speaker 3>to this information because of the lack of reliable sources,

33
00:02:09.320 --> 00:02:13.360
<v Speaker 3>because the platforms are not doing the same effort that

34
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:17.240
<v Speaker 3>they are doing in English to moderate or monitor this

35
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:20.200
<v Speaker 3>information in Facebook, Google, due to of etc.

36
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:25.120
<v Speaker 1>That's the voice of journalist Tamoa Calsadilla. Damoa is the

37
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:28.040
<v Speaker 1>editor in chief of fact check Yado, which would be

38
00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:32.440
<v Speaker 1>this Spanglish way of saying something is fact checked. You know,

39
00:02:32.880 --> 00:02:35.760
<v Speaker 1>fact check yado And for those who are not too

40
00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:39.960
<v Speaker 1>familiar with what fact checking means, it's the process of

41
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:44.960
<v Speaker 1>verifying the accuracy of any information that a politician, journalist, commentator,

42
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:49.560
<v Speaker 1>or really anyone presents as fact to the public. The

43
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:55.000
<v Speaker 1>rise of disk and misinformation has pushed many news outlets

44
00:02:55.040 --> 00:02:58.760
<v Speaker 1>to make fact checking part of their editorial processes and

45
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:02.800
<v Speaker 1>led to the creation of independent organizations like fact ce Ciallo,

46
00:03:03.200 --> 00:03:09.160
<v Speaker 1>which combats disinformation, specifically in Spanish speaking communities in the US.

47
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:14.800
<v Speaker 1>For Dama, a former investigative journalist with more than thirty

48
00:03:14.880 --> 00:03:20.360
<v Speaker 1>years of experience, truthful and reliable journalism is vital, and

49
00:03:20.440 --> 00:03:23.680
<v Speaker 1>this goes back to her own experience working under a

50
00:03:23.720 --> 00:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>repressive regime in Venezuela, the country where she was born.

51
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:33.359
<v Speaker 3>We endure difficult times over there because we published investigations

52
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:38.760
<v Speaker 3>against the government the regime, about corruption, about political prisoners,

53
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:45.320
<v Speaker 3>about violations of human rights. And I was censored when

54
00:03:45.760 --> 00:03:50.720
<v Speaker 3>I intended to publish that kind of investigations with my team.

55
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:56.240
<v Speaker 1>In twenty fourteen, her husband, himself a photojournalist, was detained

56
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:59.880
<v Speaker 1>by military groups while he was on an assignment with.

57
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.480
<v Speaker 3>My husband in jail. A lot of people, a lot

58
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:06.839
<v Speaker 3>of friends and colleagues, say the same thing. You have

59
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:10.080
<v Speaker 3>to leave Venezuela right now. You have to come to

60
00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:12.000
<v Speaker 3>the United States. You are in danger.

61
00:04:12.720 --> 00:04:16.080
<v Speaker 2>But Tamoa couldn't accept the idea of leaving her work

62
00:04:16.640 --> 00:04:17.560
<v Speaker 2>or Venezuela.

63
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:22.359
<v Speaker 3>I had one response every time I said, I want

64
00:04:22.440 --> 00:04:25.560
<v Speaker 3>to be a journalist, and I don't know if I

65
00:04:25.760 --> 00:04:38.280
<v Speaker 3>could be a journalist in another country. I don't speak English.

66
00:04:34.320 --> 00:04:36.240
<v Speaker 2>She had no choice.

67
00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:41.640
<v Speaker 3>One year later, I was landing in Miami, Florida with

68
00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:45.960
<v Speaker 3>my suitcase, my two children, and my husband to become

69
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.760
<v Speaker 3>an immigrant in the United States.

70
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>And as Tamoa found a new home in the US,

71
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.839
<v Speaker 1>she also found a new calling as a journalist, leaving

72
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.760
<v Speaker 1>the first Spanish language fact checking organization in the United

73
00:04:59.760 --> 00:05:04.600
<v Speaker 1>States eight based at Univision and its name is El Detector.

74
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:10.320
<v Speaker 3>I became a fact checker during difficult times for the

75
00:05:10.440 --> 00:05:14.800
<v Speaker 3>United States and for immigrants because it was during an

76
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 3>electoral campaign, first twenty sixteen.

77
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>From the Wall to mass deportations, to a temporary Muslim

78
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:24.279
<v Speaker 1>band with extreme Vedic.

79
00:05:25.520 --> 00:05:32.120
<v Speaker 3>Rather right, and then twenty twenty when we had elections,

80
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:37.080
<v Speaker 3>but at the same time COVID nineteen pandemic around the world,

81
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:41.520
<v Speaker 3>journalists find themselves debunking wild claims.

82
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:42.839
<v Speaker 2>You need to microwave your.

83
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Mail to kill the COVID nineteen virus. In twenty twenty two,

84
00:05:47.200 --> 00:05:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Tamoa joined fact check Jado, a project of two organizations

85
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.880
<v Speaker 1>that had ten years of experience of fact checking in Spanish,

86
00:05:55.320 --> 00:05:59.080
<v Speaker 1>one from Argentina, the other from Spain. Fact check Yado

87
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:02.679
<v Speaker 1>has a website and social media channels where they publish

88
00:06:02.760 --> 00:06:06.760
<v Speaker 1>their investigations, but they also have a WhatsApp number where

89
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:10.640
<v Speaker 1>anyone can send a message or image that they find suspicious.

90
00:06:11.520 --> 00:06:16.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm so happy to serve my community Latino communities to

91
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:20.880
<v Speaker 3>Spanish speaking communities, people like me struggling with the language

92
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:21.880
<v Speaker 3>and other issues.

93
00:06:22.880 --> 00:06:25.560
<v Speaker 1>In this episode, Tamoa is going to share how this

94
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.160
<v Speaker 1>information works and she's going to offer some step by

95
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:33.920
<v Speaker 1>step advice on how to combat this disinformation in our communities.

96
00:06:34.520 --> 00:06:37.920
<v Speaker 1>So now here's Tamoa Calsavilla in her own words.

97
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:44.159
<v Speaker 3>Misinformation is when it's not clear about the intention to

98
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:48.760
<v Speaker 3>deceived people. But this information is when you detect that

99
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:52.000
<v Speaker 3>this content is just spreading with the intention.

100
00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:53.039
<v Speaker 2>Of the sive people.

101
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:59.240
<v Speaker 3>In South Florida, we have a situation with radio stations.

102
00:07:00.080 --> 00:07:05.120
<v Speaker 3>People here listen to radio shows with host conservative hosts

103
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:15.520
<v Speaker 3>that spread a lot of this information and opinions through

104
00:07:15.760 --> 00:07:21.080
<v Speaker 3>the people are hearing many kinds of this information. In

105
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:23.040
<v Speaker 3>this radio show, one tho.

106
00:07:25.080 --> 00:07:28.320
<v Speaker 2>As a scenarian bardy of policias.

107
00:07:28.960 --> 00:07:31.720
<v Speaker 3>At the same time, they are going live in Facebook

108
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:36.480
<v Speaker 3>or due to the people spread that in social media,

109
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:41.200
<v Speaker 3>in acts in other platforms and social media group this

110
00:07:41.320 --> 00:07:48.560
<v Speaker 3>egos to hear the comparison between socialist dictator shifts in

111
00:07:48.640 --> 00:07:58.080
<v Speaker 3>Latin America with the Democratic Party representat presidency of.

112
00:08:00.080 --> 00:08:00.600
<v Speaker 2>Going to say that.

113
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:06.040
<v Speaker 3>They speak about situations that never happened, and the people

114
00:08:06.200 --> 00:08:12.720
<v Speaker 3>are confusing because it's complicated. The politics is complicated. One

115
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:16.360
<v Speaker 3>of the things that I figure out when I began

116
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:20.360
<v Speaker 3>to do this kind of work is that we had

117
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:25.600
<v Speaker 3>to prepare journalists and train people to do fact checking,

118
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:32.080
<v Speaker 3>but not traditional for checking fact checking. To serve Latino communities,

119
00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:36.560
<v Speaker 3>you have to be bilingual. You have to understand and

120
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:40.119
<v Speaker 3>interview in English, but you have to write and explain

121
00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:45.240
<v Speaker 3>that in Spanish. But Spanish is not a monolithic language.

122
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:50.720
<v Speaker 3>We have Spanish from Venezuela and bring you from Puerto Rico,

123
00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:55.600
<v Speaker 3>and different ways to name the same thing. At the

124
00:08:55.640 --> 00:08:58.600
<v Speaker 3>same time, you have a lot of people with different

125
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:03.200
<v Speaker 3>approach to the political issues, to different cultures, struggling with

126
00:09:03.640 --> 00:09:08.040
<v Speaker 3>a lot of things and raising children and trying to

127
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:14.480
<v Speaker 3>do the best in this country. We understand that this

128
00:09:14.640 --> 00:09:22.560
<v Speaker 3>information can provoke wrong behavior because confusion. The consequences are vast.

129
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:26.320
<v Speaker 3>We could see that in the middle of the COVID

130
00:09:26.400 --> 00:09:32.280
<v Speaker 3>nineteen pandemic, the people spread misinformation about the medicines.

131
00:09:32.679 --> 00:09:35.839
<v Speaker 1>The Food and Drug Administration was forced to warn against

132
00:09:35.920 --> 00:09:39.600
<v Speaker 1>using a medication to treat livestock as a treatment.

133
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:44.120
<v Speaker 3>One of the big problems with this information is the

134
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:52.359
<v Speaker 3>distrust in institutions and organizations in the science, in reliable sources,

135
00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:59.000
<v Speaker 3>because this information creates a very different reality, and the

136
00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:03.400
<v Speaker 3>people listens to something that they want to believe, and

137
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:07.880
<v Speaker 3>it's very difficult to move people from that position because

138
00:10:07.880 --> 00:10:13.680
<v Speaker 3>this information look for the feelings, for the emotions, and

139
00:10:13.880 --> 00:10:18.440
<v Speaker 3>the journalists who combine this information. We are trying to

140
00:10:18.520 --> 00:10:23.400
<v Speaker 3>explain what happened with scientists and reliable sources and data

141
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:28.719
<v Speaker 3>in the ways that the people have to do an

142
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:37.560
<v Speaker 3>effort to think not clean. I have to say that

143
00:10:37.640 --> 00:10:41.400
<v Speaker 3>this will be the first presidential election amid the boom

144
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:44.960
<v Speaker 3>of the generative artificial intelligence.

145
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:47.200
<v Speaker 1>More than weeks and say robo call the voters use

146
00:10:47.280 --> 00:10:49.920
<v Speaker 1>an AI voice of President Biden to tell them not

147
00:10:50.040 --> 00:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to vote in the New Hampshire primary, and we still

148
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:53.559
<v Speaker 1>do not know who is behind it.

149
00:10:54.400 --> 00:10:59.640
<v Speaker 3>These kind of tools are free and are widely an Internet.

150
00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:04.080
<v Speaker 3>For example, we could see in twenty twenty three some

151
00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:09.080
<v Speaker 3>political ads using artificial intelligence. One of them was a

152
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.040
<v Speaker 3>video what if Biden wins.

153
00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:16.680
<v Speaker 4>The Republican National Committee is using computer generated video to

154
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:20.880
<v Speaker 4>show apocalyptic what if scenarios for President Biden to be reelected,

155
00:11:20.920 --> 00:11:21.240
<v Speaker 4>and it.

156
00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:23.320
<v Speaker 2>Feels like the train is coming off the track.

157
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:27.880
<v Speaker 3>It was a creation by artificial intelligence, and show a

158
00:11:28.040 --> 00:11:34.720
<v Speaker 3>chootic situation with lines to look for food and medicine, war,

159
00:11:35.400 --> 00:11:39.960
<v Speaker 3>military jets, etc. That video said this was created by

160
00:11:40.040 --> 00:11:44.840
<v Speaker 3>artificial intelligence. Very small, very little words. But I think

161
00:11:44.840 --> 00:11:48.280
<v Speaker 3>that it's not sufficient to the people understand that it

162
00:11:48.400 --> 00:11:51.920
<v Speaker 3>is not real, that it is a creation. We are

163
00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:56.760
<v Speaker 3>concerned because we have no regulations. There are no clearly

164
00:11:57.080 --> 00:12:01.079
<v Speaker 3>rules about the use of artificial intelligence in campaigns or

165
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:07.040
<v Speaker 3>another field, and it's very easy to deceive people with

166
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:14.760
<v Speaker 3>that images audience. I think that the most important thing

167
00:12:14.880 --> 00:12:18.920
<v Speaker 3>to combat this information and misinformation is learn to use

168
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:23.760
<v Speaker 3>or improve your skills and critical thinking, your skills about

169
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:28.839
<v Speaker 3>how I consume the information, because a lot of information

170
00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:35.120
<v Speaker 3>is available to everybody, but nobody teaches you how to

171
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.880
<v Speaker 3>consume that, how to know where is a reliable source.

172
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:44.480
<v Speaker 3>Just with some steps or some little things, you can

173
00:12:44.640 --> 00:12:50.000
<v Speaker 3>combat this information. First, check your films, because if some

174
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:54.640
<v Speaker 3>content makes you very angry or very happy or very sad,

175
00:12:55.320 --> 00:13:01.400
<v Speaker 3>Probably something is wrong. Second, check a source who is

176
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:05.760
<v Speaker 3>sending this information is a reliable source, is a journalist,

177
00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:11.920
<v Speaker 3>is science? You know that source. Don't be shy to

178
00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:17.360
<v Speaker 3>ask to Aula on cost on cousin, how did you

179
00:13:17.480 --> 00:13:22.000
<v Speaker 3>know that? Did you record this? This better if you

180
00:13:22.160 --> 00:13:26.960
<v Speaker 3>asked the specific questions. Other thing that we say to

181
00:13:27.040 --> 00:13:32.080
<v Speaker 3>our audience is check if this account in social media

182
00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:37.240
<v Speaker 3>is a parody, because sometimes is satire content and the

183
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.960
<v Speaker 3>people are confused about that and believe that this is true.

184
00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:44.640
<v Speaker 3>Other thing is very easy.

185
00:13:44.800 --> 00:13:46.240
<v Speaker 2>You can use Google.

186
00:13:46.040 --> 00:13:50.840
<v Speaker 3>And Google lens to check and verify yourself. Is that

187
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:57.040
<v Speaker 3>photo that you received was published another time in other situations?

188
00:13:57.200 --> 00:14:00.280
<v Speaker 3>Or you can look at for the original video of

189
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:04.680
<v Speaker 3>a specific event. For example, you are watching a video

190
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:09.440
<v Speaker 3>with the candidate sign something. In general, they are public

191
00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:14.760
<v Speaker 3>events and you can find the original video. Please use

192
00:14:14.800 --> 00:14:19.200
<v Speaker 3>the Child Book of Fact CHECKATO on others and you

193
00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:24.040
<v Speaker 3>can send that photo, that image, that video, that audio,

194
00:14:24.280 --> 00:14:26.520
<v Speaker 3>and you can ask is this real?

195
00:14:26.800 --> 00:14:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Is this false?

196
00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:31.480
<v Speaker 3>And you are going to receive an answer and then

197
00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:35.400
<v Speaker 3>you can share with your growth family or friends. I

198
00:14:35.520 --> 00:14:40.240
<v Speaker 3>recommend always please be kind. Is your family is your

199
00:14:40.280 --> 00:14:44.640
<v Speaker 3>friend and it's misinformation? I think that it's not their

200
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:50.240
<v Speaker 3>intention to deceive people. The people are scared. The people

201
00:14:50.520 --> 00:14:53.440
<v Speaker 3>want to share with you because they care about you.

202
00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:59.120
<v Speaker 3>And the best way to explain to your friend or

203
00:14:59.160 --> 00:15:02.960
<v Speaker 3>to your own ca about this content is in private,

204
00:15:03.680 --> 00:15:08.360
<v Speaker 3>not in the group, and you can ask questions. The

205
00:15:08.400 --> 00:15:12.160
<v Speaker 3>most important if you are not sure about the content,

206
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:19.720
<v Speaker 3>please don't share it. In fact, together we are building

207
00:15:19.920 --> 00:15:23.720
<v Speaker 3>a big alliance around the world because the idea is

208
00:15:23.800 --> 00:15:29.880
<v Speaker 3>to do this together. Combating this information affecting Spanish speaking

209
00:15:29.920 --> 00:15:31.360
<v Speaker 3>communities is.

210
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:32.560
<v Speaker 2>A collaborative work.

211
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:38.640
<v Speaker 3>We have more than sixty allies, media outlets and organizations

212
00:15:38.680 --> 00:15:42.840
<v Speaker 3>in different parts of the country twenty states plus Puerto Rico.

213
00:15:42.920 --> 00:15:47.200
<v Speaker 3>Right now and every single Thursday, we have a meeting

214
00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:51.440
<v Speaker 3>with all our allies and we discause what kind of

215
00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:56.320
<v Speaker 3>misinformation on this information we are seeing in our communities,

216
00:15:56.640 --> 00:16:00.400
<v Speaker 3>in our audience, or what kind of narrative all this

217
00:16:00.560 --> 00:16:06.600
<v Speaker 3>information do damage in our Spanish speaking communities. We listen

218
00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:11.920
<v Speaker 3>to our partners in the border, in the Midwest, in

219
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:15.880
<v Speaker 3>South Florida, in New York, et cetera, and we can

220
00:16:16.280 --> 00:16:19.920
<v Speaker 3>understand what's going on over there, what's going on at

221
00:16:19.920 --> 00:16:24.400
<v Speaker 3>the border, what's going on in California, and with that

222
00:16:24.560 --> 00:16:31.520
<v Speaker 3>input we can prepare the articles, videos, et cetera. I

223
00:16:31.560 --> 00:16:36.160
<v Speaker 3>think that the same thing that provoked the vulnerability of

224
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:41.520
<v Speaker 3>Spanish speaking communities, as the use of WhatsApp, we can

225
00:16:41.680 --> 00:16:44.960
<v Speaker 3>use that and help others to understart what's going on

226
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:49.640
<v Speaker 3>in social media, what's going on with artificial intelligence. Latino

227
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:56.040
<v Speaker 3>communities culturally are groups with a lot of sense of group,

228
00:16:56.680 --> 00:17:02.560
<v Speaker 3>family and sharing that we can use the power that

229
00:17:02.640 --> 00:17:07.000
<v Speaker 3>we have and Latino the way that we speak with

230
00:17:07.320 --> 00:17:12.240
<v Speaker 3>our as well as theos amigos to help others to

231
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:17.359
<v Speaker 3>understand better what's going on over there in social media

232
00:17:17.560 --> 00:17:22.640
<v Speaker 3>another platforms. I think that we can do this together

233
00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:26.440
<v Speaker 3>more effectively with the collaborative work.

234
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:37.119
