The beloved character Cisco Renaldo on Netflix’s original animated series based on the Fast & Furious franchise, Fast & Furious: Spy Racers, is of Latinx descent. The next time our kids are on the hunt for a new show to watch, we’re going to point them in the direction of these cartoons, which all feature either Latinx or indigenous characters. So for now, we are going to continue going out of our way to find entertainment options for them that closely reflect who they are and the communities we live in. We can certainly go on hoping that things will change as our kids get older, and that Latinx and indigenous representation will become widespread in their lifetimes, but the reality is, it’s probably going to take a lot longer than that to become the norm. How insane is that?! It’s really had us thinking once again about the fact that despite there being a few prominent Latinx figures in Hollywood, we still can’t seem to grab a foothold.

Case in point: 89-year-old Puerto Rican actress Rita Moreno, was the only Latina actress to make an appearance at the 2021 Oscars.

Representation means so much to our kids as they process their identities, and there’s absolutely no denying that Latinx and indigenous representation is still severely lacking in the entertainment world.
