EL PAÍS News in English

The invisible history of Afro-America


Dear readers,

This week we feature a special about the Afro-descendant communities of Latin America and the Caribbean, where there are 150 million people who identify as Afro-descendant and have shaped the countries of the region, but whose histories have been erased or reduced to stereotypes.

Back in the U.S., President Trump continued his crusade to deport as many immigrants as possible, whether legally in the country or not. "Being a legal resident in the US is being a second-class citizen," says a permanent resident who had her naturalization interview suddenly cancelled.

Other articles include a look back at when Ukraine's Zelenskiy played the president in the TV series 'Servant of the People,' and the real story of Belle da Costa, an early 20th-century figure who concealed her origins and went on to lead New York's famous Morgan Library for over two decades.

We hope you enjoy this selection from EL PAÍS USA Edition.
