BIG NEWS šŸ“£

This year at the @latimes I'll be working on a project I've long dreamed of.

I'll be writing the #SalvadoranSeries, a collection of stories documenting what became of the hundreds of thousands of Salvadorans that fled El Salvador during the U.S.-backed war.
Today, Salvadorans make up the third largest Latino population in the U.S.. They have a vast presence in Los Angeles, the D.C. region & many major cities.

You can also find thousands of SalvadoreƱos in Canada, Australia, Italy and Spain.
Four decades after their great migration began, there's so much that's misunderstood about the Salvadoran diaspora. So much that's been erased about their history, their identity & most of all, about the key role the U.S. has played in shaping their homeland & in displacing them.
