    This episode of Diaspórica el Podcast, recorded as part of a BUDPR virtual event, dives into the ways a future Donald J. Trump's presidency could be in detriment of the Puerto Rican community in the diaspora and in Puerto Rico.

Our guests are Mayra Rivera Vázquez, Second Vice-Chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party, and Daniela Velázquez, a Puerto Rican Alderwoman from the 6th Ward of the city of St. Louis.
