Meet Havi Carillo-Klein, a senior at McLean H.S. in Fairfax, North Virginia and bilingual daughter of a Mexican immigrant mother from Guadalajara and Jewish American father with roots in Poland, Hungary and Russia. Our conversation moves between breaking stereotypes, Latina representations of women in media (everyone needs to watch Jane the Virgin!), body positivity, and Selena Gomez’s Insta following what it’s like for this Jewish Mexican high schooler to straddle three parts of the world and celebrate them all as intrinsic to her cultural identity, to DACA, to corporate advertising responsibility. Like all our interviews, this one lands in the power of inclusion, empathy and love.
