About this episode

Jeremy Klemin joins the pod to discuss his recent article in the Atlantic about how to categorize Portuguese people, and set out to resolve questions like: are Italians Latino, are Brazilians Hispanic, should Portuguese people benefit from Affirmative Action, does assimilation ruin everything, and most importantly, should Rosalia win a Latin Grammy? (don't expect any answers, though). We also discuss the wondrous world of Brazilian music.
