* In response to the reaction to Mientras Dormías:
* Headed to the Imagen Awards!Excited to celebrate Latinx awesomeness in the entertainment industry. We need all the positivity we can get these days. Also, I’m really feeling my hair tonight.
* We didn’t win any Imagen awards, but we had a great time! Shout out to @StevenCanals and his show Pose and @everythingloria and her show One Day At A Time. Congrats on your well deserved wins! Besos!
* [This] happens to many POC. I repeated staff writer 2X & the 2nd time I was asked to go back to SW after I had already been a story editor for a season. I repeated SE three times! Promotions = more POC showrunners! Took me 16 years to become a showrunner.
