👋🏽 Hey there, !

This week’s edition is coming to you from a remote work setup powered by tacos, cafecito, and a little community curiosity. From Dolores Huerta wisdom to fast-food economics to a sneak peek at a new Pocho Socialite series, there’s a little bit of culture, conversation, and research (the taco kind) ahead. Let’s get into this week's...

P.O.C.H.O. Stuff Email

Algo bien for a fun Friday.

Edition: March 6th, 2026

Picture 📸 • Optimism💖 • Cool Find 🕵🏽‍♂️ • Homework 📝 • Other Stuff 📢

PICTURE: 📸

Working remote has its perks. 💻🌮☕ I took a picture of this sign because few things motivate productivity like the promise of a good coffee and a taco deal waiting around the corner. Shoot me your favorite WFH spots!

OPTIMISM: 💖

In honor of International Women’s Day, a reminder from a trailblazer who continues to help change history:

“Every moment is an organizing opportunity, every person a potential activist, every minute a chance to change the world.”

— Dolores Huerta

COOL FIND: 🕵🏽‍♂️

A thoughtful IG reel from Latino creator Fernando Hurtado breaks down what he calls Jack in the Box’s Latino problem. The chain—famous for its tacos—actually attracts 1.7× more Hispanic customers than the industry average, but recent sales have dipped as some Latino consumers pull back on spending amid broader uncertainty. It’s a quick watch that connects fast food, economics, and what’s happening in our communities. 👉 Click to watch the reel on IG

HOMEWORK: 📝

Another easy one this week: go eat a taco. Seriously. Then tell me about it! What kind did you get, and where from? Share your favorite taco or current taco spot with me (or on social). Research for the culture… obviously.

OTHER STUFF: 📢

Quick teaser: I’m working on a new blog series for the Pocho Socialite blog all about Dual Citizenship, specifically what it means to be binational between the U.S. and Mexico.

There’s a lot more to it than paperwork. From my lived experience and what I’ve been researching, the benefits tend to fall into three big buckets:

Mobility & legal rights (living, working, and owning property more easily in both countries)
Financial & practical advantages (banking, healthcare options, business opportunities)
Cultural & family connections (heritage, identity, and keeping ties strong across borders)

I’m still shaping the series, so I’d love your input. What questions about dual citizenship should I answer first? Reply and let me know, there’s a good chance your question will become the first post.

That’s it for this week. If you’ve got a taco recommendation or a burning question about dual citizenship, send it my way. As always, gracias for being part of this little corner of the internet where cultura, curiosity, and community meet. 🌮✨
