- Two-thirds of the residents of the port city of Chelsea, Massachusetts are Latino and four out of five are essential workers. Meet Judith García, a young city councilwoman, and Brian Santiago, a sanitation worker, who are keeping their city running.
Across the United States, Latinos have been on the pandemic’s frontlines, providing essential services to all Americans. Many do jobs that can’t be done from home. From the fields of medicine, education, food service, and beyond, Latino workers have kept our country going. Latinos Are Essential, produced by Latinos Public Broadcasting, is a collection of unique and insightful short portraits and stories about Latinos who are serving as essential workers in a wide variety of jobs and/or services across the United States, even as the COVID 19 pandemic continues to disproportionately impact Latino and other communities of color.

My mom’s a doctor at MGH Chelsea. Luckily she can work from home, but seeing the toll the pandemic’s taken on her and her coworkers and friends is heartbreaking
love from Somerville, just across the Mystic River
This is such a good look at a culture affected by modern times
Where else in America is this not true?
Oyé como va!
