This Valentine’s Season, instead of taking your hot date to la taqueria invite them to join you in celebrating your local taquerxs, panaderx, cocincerxs y mas! Let’s love on all the workers that make our Latinidades present.

We invite you to pick your favorite Valentine’s Day card, put it in a nice frame (or not), and surprise your favorite local Latinx workers. Maybe they’ve always been there for you for those 2am tacos de asada, or never run out of conchas on a saturday morning or their tamales are the best on the block. Let’s use this Valentine’s Day to love on our people.

We want to shower our local latinx workers with love and appreciation and counter the narrative of fear coming from this administration. As ICE increases worksite raids, we know that our trabajadorxs in Latinx specific worksites are extra visible and vulnerable to racist attacks. All the more reason for us to celebrate them, their labor and our culture.

So call your hot Valentine’s Date  ❤ and tell them this year we are loving on our gente.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Gather your squad

2. Print out your favorite Valentine’s card designed by Mijenterxs in Arkansas, Kentucky, Arizona and Texas

3. Surprise one or many of your local latinx workers!

4. Snap a photo or video and share it with us on social media using #AmorSinFronteras #LoveLocal #AmoMiBarrio #iheartmyhood
