¡The Original Latino Instigators!

About Me

Two years ago we started a facebook page – with news, campaigns, actions, music and more – now we are growing into a full network!

Cuéntame means: Count me or tell me your story – and we ask everyone to do so! Cuéntame is a place for Latinos and the public in general! Whether YOU are a sports fan, movie fan, activist, artist, student, parent, organizer, Latino or not, award winning novelist, astronaut, actor, painter, or anything else, all are welcome here! You us your story!

The official page of the ¡Latino Instigators! Through short video, docu-series, interviews from our studio, the streets, or sent to us by you, we unite voices and create a powerful community. From tackling unjust immigration laws to exclusive features on Latino arts, music and film you will connect directly with fellow activists, artists, writers, figures and much more!
