#RIP to “Big” #GeorgeForeman - one of the last to leave us from the Golden Age of 70s Heavyweight boxing 🥊 To think that he came back and reclaimed the Championship 20 YEARS after he lost it to Ali (at 45!). You may know him for only his grill but fight fans know him for creating sporting miracles 🕊️

Gracias Luis for taking time out for an interview last season. The legacy that you continue to build on in baseball is inspiring and even more so with your family. Pa’lante!🫡 📸 Danny Torres Left: Giraldo Luis Alvaré Right: Luis Rojas, NYY coach #Legacy #Family #MLB #RepublicaDominicana #Yankees

To me she is the Maestra of all Ceremonies.✨ #TBT #RoleModel #PuertoRico #Latina #WHM

It has been really fun to see the organic growth of @latnewsletter.bsky.social in its 10th month since launch. This feels like the first year of Latino Rebels back in 2011. Take every win. Stay consistent. Don't overthink it. Rinse and repeat.

3 the hard way… This is 3 more recent pieces. I never used a sketch in my life, never made a DJ “routine.” Hip Hop is something we do… #graffiti #hiphop

Every day is spray day… Yes i paint a lot. Graff has been an outlet for me since I was a kid. I stopped while touring and scratching records around the globe, but it always draws me back in. I love it. #graffiti
