Panelist Guillermo Aviles-Rodriguez, a lecturer in the Chicana/o Studies Department at California State University, Northridge and Ph.D. student in UCLA's School of Theatre, Film and Television, stated that there has been a "demographic explosion" of the Latino people and that there needs to be an embracing of power by the community.
