We are here and have been here for quite some time. The forces of gentrification, capital and power are doing their best to erase every vestige of the Latinx experience in New York City. Uptown’s own Djali Brown-Cepeda has created a must-see visual archive dedicated to the old school Latinx NYC experience to set the record straight. Scrolling through the nuevayorkinos feed will transport you to the old Nueva York that is rapidly vanishing before our eyes. The IG account has only been around for a little more than a month but is growing in popularity, followers and influence exponentially. Do yourself a favor and get familiar.
