Ep. 7 \ Understanding Communities Through Tacos with Mando Rayo
In this episode, we speak to Mando Rayo, a Texas-based digital storyteller, entrepreneur, and self-proclaimed taco journalist who produces content that strives to paint an inclusive, accurate portrait of America. His latest work is the Laredo Taco Company’s “Made Right Here” Road Trip as he explores his favorite tacos in some of the most iconic cities in the Lone Star State. We discuss how Mando’s Latinx heritage informs his work, how tacos can help us understand different communities, and how one of the organizations he co-founded helps to create racially diverse nonprofit boards.
