Palencia is expanding the content options for bilingual and bicultural Latinos in the U.S. In 4Q24, LatiNation will premiere “Royal T,” the first-ever talk show for the community led by trans advocate Queen Victoria. Approximately 70% of its cast and crew were hired from the LGBTQ+ community. LatiNation continues to expand its reach, striking new distribution deals with PLEX and TCL. Palencia wishes more companies were openly fostering inclusion outside of Pride Month, but says it has been discouraging to see some notable brands be bullied by loud groups of bigoted individuals that don’t support the same causes. “At LatiNation we’re focused on ensuring brands and companies can see the social and monetary benefits of inclusion so they can more boldly support our communities,” Palencia says.
