Meet Bamby Salcedo, President and CEO of TransLatin@ Colation. She founded one of the largest organizations supporting Trans people in America. Salcedo serves on the Board of the ERA Coaltion and strives to ensure that all people are recognized as equal.
Elisa Parker speaks with Salcedo about her work on the Hill, the responsibility she holds to co-create better lives for all, how to turn a challenge into opportunities, to show up as who you are and to know that there is a community here to support you. She underscores the privilege of surviving in order to support others. She is a mirracle or as Salcedo says in her words, "Yo Soy Milagro".
Hosted by nationally acclaimed radio host and Equal Voices/ERA Coalition, Elisa Parker, Equality Talks bridges the intersections of equality, justice, and social activism to unify as a collective and change the status quo.
Equality Talks focuses on the key facets of equality across all communities, including everything from gender, racial, economic and reproductive justice, to labor, immigrant, and LGBTQ+ rights.

Moving from silos to solidarity.
The ERA Coalition was founded in 2014 to bring concerted, organized action to the effort to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment. The ERA Coalition has a sister organization, the Fund for Women’s Equality, which promotes public education and outreach on the need for constitutional equality. Composed of more than 290 organizations across the country representing millions of people, the Coalition is a movement of movements focused on overall equality in the United States.
While the effort to amend the constitution to include sex equality began nearly a century ago, our renewed efforts are centered on women of color (African American, Asian American/Pacific Islander, Latina, and Native American), gender-nonconforming and transgender women and girls, and nonbinary people – those who are most impacted by systemic inequities.

It's for the love that the world I face And for love If I fall I always get up And on the side of the road I see fallen angels It's for love that I'm never going to leave you And for love I hope what you're going to give me And on the side of the road See angels fall There's a party and it's tonight Dance with me So I ask you to look at me It's for love That you do what you feel And for love22 episodes
