The Network: Déjà vu
This week, we’re presenting the third of “The Network,” a new series that Latino USA co-produced with NPR’s Embedded podcast. The network and its method took off in countries where women didn’t have a legal option for abortion. Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, many Americans have found themselves in that very situation.We travel to the US to see how the network is responding to exploding demand and mounting abortion restrictions.Embedded+ supporters get first access and sponsor-free listening for every Embedded series.

The Network: Breaking Bread
Today, we're presenting episode 2 of “The Network,” a new series that Latino USA co-produced with NPR’s Embedded podcast. The network had developed a method that had the potential to get women widespread access to safe abortions. But to make that happen, a whisper network wasn’t enough. Hosts Marta and Victoria travel across Latin America to trace how the network entered a new era. Women spoke up and teamed up. They challenged each other and sometimes even broke the law.Embedded+ supporters get first access and sponsor-free listening for every Embedded series. Sign up at...

The Network: Saint-o-tec
This week we’re presenting the first episode of “The Network,” a new series that Latino USA co-produced with NPR’s Embedded podcast. In the mid-1980s, an OBGYN in Brazil noticed that far fewer pregnant women at his hospital were dying from abortion complications. It wasn’t a coincidence. Brazilian women had made a discovery that allowed them to safely have abortions at home, despite the country’s abortion restrictions. That discovery eventually spread across the globe.

Patience

And he reveals one surprising and life-changing decision. Season 2 of Suave was made possible by The Mellon Foundation.

Doctora Polo: 'This Is Who I Am'
If some Latinos hear la doctora, it doesn’t evoke the image of a medical doctor. Instead, it’s that of a Cuban American attorney-turned-show host who sings her own theme song.In 2001, Doctora Polo had been practicing family law for over 20 years in Miami when she was hired to host a new court show on Telemundo that would later become Caso Cerrado. It often aired for multiple hours a day on Telemundo and was nominated for a Daytime Emmy.In this episode of Latino USA, Doctora Polo reflects on her role as a Latina ente...

There he reconnects with family who come from a long lineage of survivors… and of Santería practitioners.

He’s in a stable, happy relationship…but after three decades behind bars, sometimes a girlfriend can feel like a prison guard, and Suave struggles with the idea of commitment. In fact, relationships in general—romantic and otherwise—have been the hardest part of life on the outside for him.

Parole & The Pursuit of Happiness
Suave can’t drink. He can’t smoke weed. He can’t travel. He can’t visit old prison friends, or basically have any interaction with the police. And that’s because even though he’s free, he’s on parole for a lifetime. In other words he’s just serving his prison sentence on the outside. Sometimes all these rules make Suave ask himself, “Will I ever really be free?”Season 2 of Suave was made possible by The Mellon Foundation.
