BROOKLYN, N.Y., Nov. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Hispanic Information and Telecommunications Network (HITN), the first non-commercial, Spanish-language media company that delivers educational programming to more than 42 million homes nationwide on satellite and cable and Highlights for Children, the leading family media brand and publisher of the most-read children’s magazines in North America, announced their partnership last February to support Highlights High Five Bilingüe magazine. Over the last nine months, this iconic children’s brand and the nonprofit commercial-free broadcast network supporting Hispanic families across the United States have collaborated on four videos, two online games, and several community events.

HITN Logo

High Five Bilingüe was launched in the fall of 2014 to assist Hispanic families as they encourage their younger children (ages 2 to 6) in Spanish bilingual language development. The magazine, which is published monthly, features a range of read-along stories and poems, crafts, games, and puzzles in Spanish and in English to help children become confident speakers, readers, and writers in both languages. The magazine provides a free online audio edition read by native Spanish and English speakers, and the partnership with HITN supports and encourages the creation of additional multi-media content, including games and videos. Parents and kids can access High Five Bilingüe content from the HITN website or follow the direct link www.hitn.org/highlights.

Ed Greene, Vice President of Partnerships and Community Development for HITN, says, “High Five Bilingüe is a perfect complement to our HITN Learning Interstitials on-air, which offers bilingual content geared toward children ages 2 to 6. Our partnership with High Five Bilingüe allows us to reach those children at an even younger age so they get an early start, to better prepare them for learning in both languages.”

HITN‘s Erica Branch-Ridley, Vice President and Executive Producer for creative development and production added, “We are so enthusiastic about ensuring that the stories from High Five Bilingüe are brought to life, in order to capture the hearts and creative minds of a whole new generation of dual-language learners. We are thrilled to be able to bring the pages of the magazine onto multimedia platforms that will engage both parents and kids.”

“We knew our recently launched magazine was reaching many families and classrooms through our own efforts, but we also wanted to partner with organizations to help bring High Five Bilingüe and its content to more families,” said Beth Allen, Vice President of Partnerships and Business Development, Highlights for Children. “When we met with HITN, we were excited to partner with a like-minded, mission-driven broadcast network dedicated to Spanish speakers. We look forward to making an enhanced contribution to education and community growth through our alliance with HITN.”

So far, the partnership between HITN and High Five Bilingüe has resulted in the creation of hands-on, bilingual, museum-based “Family Day Events”; four videos; and two interactive web games developed by HITN and based on High Five Bilingüe content.

Campaign Launches to Mobilize Florida Voters Against Amendment 1

0

ORLANDO, Florida, Nov. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Today, Latino political, community, and business leaders announced their efforts to mobilize voters in opposition to Amendment 1, a ballot initiative open to voters at Tuesday’s polls. The deceptively-marketed Amendment is backed by large utility companies in Florida in an effort to make solar energy more expensive and less competitive to consumers. Amendment 1 would keep Floridians captive power consumers, without the health and financial benefits of solar power.

Savings from solar energy would alleviate the financial strain the 24,000 low-income families in Miami, and the 500,000+ families in Florida overall that spend 15 to 20% of their income on energy bills. And for Latinos that often live in close proximity to power plants and thus are more likely to be negatively impacted by pollution, solar technology can result in cleaner air and healthier communities. Some medical experts have stated that Latino families face an “environmental health crisis,” as 1 in 10 Latino children suffer from and are 40% more likely to die from asthma due to health care disparities. Solar technology would also create opportunity for these communities through accessible, new jobs in the clean energy sector—jobs that pay $18 to $32 per hour in Florida, which would mean significant gains for the Latinos who currently constitute one-fifth of Florida’s solar workforce. Amendment 1 an immediate and real impact on these families: when they can save money on buying energy, they are better able to provide for housing, food and other basic necessities.

But none of this information was made clear to voters by power companies during their campaign for the ballot initiative. Utility companies gained support for Amendment 1 by falsely claiming the ballot initiative would make it easier for people to switch to solar power in Florida. Amendment 1 misleads Florida voters by promising rights and protections Florida citizens already have, including the right to purchase or lease solar equipment.

Opposition to Amendment 1 consists of a diverse and bipartisan group of 70 businesses, industry associations, conservative groups, faith communities, clean energy advocates and environmental organizations. Floridian icons, bipartisan elected officials, candidates for office, and 24 newspaper editorial boards have also urged Florida voters to vote “no” on Amendment 1.

“The fight against amendment one and the fight to protect rooftop solar in Florida is an environmental issue and a justice issue,” said Jennifer Allen, Vice President and National Director, Chispa, at the League of Conservation Voters. “Latino neighborhoods and families are the most impacted by pollution and the first impacted by climate change, but yet we’re often excluded from the processes where decisions are made about the health of our communities.  On November 8th, we have a chance to speak up and protect the clean energy future that our communities need.”

“Communities of color on the ground in Florida are waking up to the deceptive tactics of the utility lobby to kill solar in Florida,” said Yulissa Arce, Central Florida Director for Organize NOW. “We are seeing them speak up and mobilize against the harmful impact of fossil fuels on the environment and on Latino and African American neighborhoods.”  

Aliki Moncrief, Executive Director of Florida Conservation Voters, said, “Amendment 1 is a wolf in sheep’s clothing designed to trick voters into keeping the utilities’ monopoly on our energy. Latinos, African-Americans, everyone – we must unite as one Florida for a clean energy future and vote no on 1.”

“I stand in solidarity with Floridians during this tough and dirty fight,” said former Nevada Assemblywoman, Senior Political Strategist at MiTú, Lucy Flores. “I’ve seen firsthand the devastating effects of letting the utility lobby write your state’s solar policy. Nevada has seen a near 100% drop off in solar installations and lost thousands of much needed jobs. I hope this serves as an example and a warning to Florida’s voters to vote no on 1.”

CAZA DE BRUJAS EN SAN ANTONIO: An Unsolved Crime

Anna Vasquez, one of the San Antonio Four.

MIAMI, Nov. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — In 1994, four Latinas lesbians were wrongfully convicted of aggravated sexual assault and indecency against two young girls in San Antonio, Texas. Almost ten years later all four women were set free, but still struggle to be exonerated of the charges. The documentary CAZA DE BRUJAS EN SAN ANTONIO directed by Deborah S. Esquenazi, investigates the case and the devastating impact it had on the lives of these four women and their families. The documentary will air on US Hispanic television on Sunday, November 13th at 9PM E/P on Discovery en Español during the Discovery a Fondo block.

Anna Vasquez, one of the San Antonio Four.

Critically acclaimed at film festivals, CAZA DE BRUJAS EN SAN ANTONIO (Southwest of Salem: The Story of the San Antonio Four), begins its journey inside a Texas prison, over a decade after Elizabeth Ramírez, Cassandra Rivera, Kristie Mayhugh, and Anna Vasquez (labeled the San Antonio Four), were sentenced to 37 and 15 years in prison. None of the women ever took a plea bargain or ever considered it, and always maintained their innocence. In 2012 and 2013, they were finally liberated after one of the accusers recanted her statement and forensic evidence used in the case was debunked.

Through interviews with the four women, their families, and lawyers, as well as footage and unreleased videos, the documentary director reveals the odd claims and injustices that were portrayed on these individuals due to their sexual orientation during the “Satanic Panic” of the 1980-90. The production also follows the work of attorneys from the Innocence Project of Texas, who played a pivotal role on the women’s ultimate release from prison.  

CAZA DE BRUJAS EN SAN ANTONIO is produced by Motto Pictures and Naked Edge Films with Deborah S. Esquenazi as director and Sam Tabet as producer.

March of Dimes Foundation Logo

WHITE PLAINS, New York, Nov. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — March of Dimes, the country’s leading nonprofit in mom and baby health and in the prevention of premature birth — the #1 killer of babies — and Little Lotus, the innovative baby product line from health tech social enterprise Embrace Innovations, today announced a month-long partnership to run throughout November, Prematurity Awareness Month. The partnership kick-off coincides with the recent launch of the March of Dimes’ Give them tomorrow campaign.

Each year in the United States, about 380,000 babies are born prematurely – setting them up for possible lifelong health problems, including breathing problems, jaundice, vision loss, cerebral palsy and intellectual delays. That’s why March of Dimes is funding research to identify the unknown causes of preterm birth so more moms can have full-term, healthy babies.

From today through November 30, Little Lotus will donate $5.00 from every purchase of the Lotus Signature Swaddle and Sleeping Bag – featuring the company’s original, handprint-inspired design – to March of Dimes to help support this critical work.

Little Lotus is a line of baby products (including swaddle and sleeping bags for newborns – 2 years) using a proprietary fabric inspired by NASA spacesuits to keep babies at the optimal temperature, helping them to sleep better. The company has a forthcoming preemie size swaddle as well, with pre-orders available soon. For every Little Lotus baby product purchased, a baby is saved by the Embrace Warmer, a low-cost infant incubator designed by Embrace Innovations, which has already helped to save over 200,000 babies around the world.

“Premature birth is a serious problem in the United States, and March of Dimes is our country’s biggest champion in the fight against it,” says Embrace Innovations CEO, Jane Chen. “The March of Dimes mission couldn’t be more aligned with the mission and values of Embrace Innovations and our consumer product line, Little Lotus. Since our founding, we have strived to help save preterm infants around the world, so we are thrilled to support March of Dimes, and babies right here at home, in this way.”

All purchases of the Lotus Signature Swaddle and Sleeping Bag will be available exclusively through littlelotusbaby.com.

“We are truly excited to have this new partnership with Little Lotus,” said Dr. Jennifer L. Howse, president of the March of Dimes. “This is a company that combines a unique blend of passion and commerce – helping to give every baby a fighting chance and healthy start. We are truly lucky to have partners like Little Lotus that share our commitment to supporting moms and saving babies.”

About Embrace Innovations and Little Lotus
Embrace Innovations is committed to helping save the lives of preterm infants in the developing world through the Embrace Warmer, a low-cost baby incubator that stabilizes a baby’s body temperature. The company’s innovation and mission recently drew attention from Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, who made a donation to get Embrace Warmers throughout sub-Saharan Africa, in partnership with the Millennium Promise. In 2014, Embrace Co-Founder Jane Chen was invited to the White House for the first ever White House Maker Faire, where Embrace was selected as one of 10 organizations to present its work to President Obama. To date, the Embrace Warmer has helped over 200,000 low birth weight and premature infants in 20 countries. Learn more at embraceinnovations.com, and via Chen’s TED talk.

A consumer product line from Embrace Innovations, Little Lotus (featured in Bloomberg Businessweek, Wall St. Journal, New York Times, Inc. Magazine, and more) was launched in 2015. Each item in the Little Lotus family works to keep babies at the ideal temperature, using a proprietary NASA inspired fabric. Moreover, each product purchased helps to save a life in a developing country with the Embrace Warmer. Learn more at littlelotusbaby.com or follow us on FacebookInstagram or Twitter.
