Why Hoop Earrings Mean So Much to Me as a Latina

I was probably less than a year old the first time I wore hoop earrings. In fact, mami had my ears pierced by my pediatrician only months after I was born. She decorated them with pretty diamond studs, then eventually I graduated to small hoop earrings.

Mami had a few pairs herself, and I remember being in my pre-teens trying them on in the mirror and loving how they framed my face, brought out my sculpted jawline, and instantly added edge to my look. I felt pretty, I felt womanly, and I felt like I looked "really Latina" - whatever that meant.

But it actually makes sense if you really think about it. Latinas have been adorning their ears with hoops for centuries. It's part of our culture as a result of our African ancestry. My mom wore them, my older cousin Liza wore them, and many of my favorite artists like Selena Quintanilla, the ladies from TLC, and Jennifer Lopez wore them.

Putting on a pair of hoops filled me with confidence and pride.

Putting on a pair of hoops filled me with confidence and pride. Those heavy earrings, though, eventually started to take a toll on my delicate little ears.

In fifth grade, my left earlobe ripped from constantly wearing hoops and hanging earrings, and from forgetting to take them off before bed. A plastic surgeon had to stitch it back up. The surgery itself is referred to as earlobe repair surgery, and it's actually more common than you'd think, especially among women of color.

I went at least one full year without wearing anything but stud earrings, but eventually hoops were back in my life again. Once I started college, though, I put all my hoop earrings away again after hearing comments not just from white people but even by POCs themselves that referred to hoops as "hood" or "ghetto."

I didn't want to go into college being stereotyped as this "spicy" and "ghetto" Latina, and the pride I felt whenever I wore hoop earrings now turned into shame. Looking back, I'm sad I allowed myself to conform to what white society told me was stylish and acceptable.

I put all my hoop earrings away after hearing comments not just from white people - but even by POCs themselves - that referred to them as "hood" or "ghetto."

My left ear eventually ripped again my senior year of college, and after getting surgery the second time around, I told myself I was never going to re-pierce my ears again. However, I'd find myself occasionally craving earrings and would go on long internet hunts to find decent clip-ons.

I'll never forget the first time I found myself a pair of hoop clip-on earrings. I loved the way they made my face look but I retired them for a while after my boyfriend at the time expressed he didn't like them because they made me look like "Johanna from the Block." That was it. No more hoop earrings for me. I was going to pursue a career in journalism now. I needed to be taken seriously - not stereotyped.

My clip-on hoops days.

A lot has changed since my college days. For starters, WOC - Latinas included - have resisted the white beauty standards that have been pushed on us for centuries. We have reclaimed our pride and our beauty. And so many of us, regardless of age or occupation, proudly let our hoops dangle as we confidently stride down the street.

All the complejos I had when I was younger about being Latina and the fears I had about how white America viewed me have gone away. In fact, I proudly wear my Latiniad on my sleeve regardless of how uncomfortable it might make someone feel. So of course, it only makes sense that the time would be right for me to finally wear the hoop earrings I grew up wearing with so much pride.

I got my ears re-pierced in February, right before the pandemic really hit the US. I'm so glad I did because putting on a pair of hoops on my low days has really done a lot in terms of lifting my spirits. I feel beautiful, I feel proud, I feel like a badass Latina who can get through any obstacle that's placed in front of her. I love you hoops, and I'm just sorry I ever doubted your magic in the first place.

Filthy Rich: More About Jeffrey Epstein's Ex-Girlfriend's Father Robert Maxwell and His Mysterious Death

Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sexual predator and millionaire financier is at the center of Netflix's documentary Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich. The documentary is filled with sickening details of Epstein's sex-trafficking and abuse, and one mysterious death: that of Robert Maxwell, the father of Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's ex-girlfriend and close confidante. The megarich media mogul suspiciously died in 1991 after falling off his boat.

After being born in Czechoslovakia in 1923 as Ján Ludvík Hoch, the man who would later call himself Ian Robert Maxwell fled to France and then Britain where he fought in the Army before joining the business world. He made his first big media deal in 1951 when he bought a publishing company that he renamed Pergamon Press. In just over a decade, he became a millionaire.

Over the coming years, he battled with another well-known media mogul, Rupert Murdoch, to buy out media companies. He bought the British Printing Corp. and the Mirror Group newspapers. His desire for dominance in the media industry and maximum profitability led him to cut staff from the publications and battle it out with the unions, according to Forbes. He kept making purchases in other countries to grow his media dominance and eventually came to the US to purchase the New York Daily News.

However, Maxwell's companies weren't as profitable as he led people to believe and days before his death, he was to meet with his son and the Bank of England about defaulting on a £50 million loan with Goldman Sachs. Instead, he was off on his yacht. Maxwell's son Kevin told The Times: "We needed to prepare for that meeting and I was a bit hacked off that he was going to leave it to the last minute."

On Nov. 5, 1991, Maxwell was dead. He had fallen overboard his boat, and whether it was by accident or by force remains a mystery. The Guardian wrote at the time that Maxwell's death was caused by heart attack and drowning, though The Independent wrote that his death was inconclusive. The Independent also pointed out that "a self-proclaimed former Mossad officer named Ari Ben-Menashe had approached a number of news organisations in Britain and the United States with the allegation that Maxwell was a long-time agent for the Israeli intelligence service." This allegation, though, has mostly been dismissed since then.

Others have believed that Maxwell committed suicide because of his incredible debt, though his son Ian doesn't agree. According to Forbes, Ian said, "I don't think any murder conspiracy stands up. So for me, it is an unexplained accident, and I'm content to live with that."

Not only were Maxwell's companies failing, but after he died, investigators found that Maxwell had swiped over £460 million in pension funds, selling them off and using the proceeds as if they were his own, according to Forbes. A few years after his death, Maxwell's children were left to deal with fraud charges and Maxwell's companies were mostly sold off or went belly up.

This Museum's New Virtual Exhibit Was Shot Entirely With an iPhone, and the Photos Are Stunning

Given today's shelter-in-place environment, we have all shifted the way we work, especially in the world of entertainment and the creative arts. Technology has become our greatest ally in keeping us together while apart, as well as provided innovative ways for us to continue creating. A great example of this is the Museum of Modern Art of Bogotá (MAMBO's) new virtual photographic exhibition called "Ciudades Durmientes" (Sleeping Cities), which brought together six of the best Latin American photographers from all over the world, and challenged them to capture their new reality through the lens of an iPhone.

This exhibition, which was also edited entirely via iPhone, is available for the next few weeks through MAMBO's website and social media channels. It features photographers Andrés Oyuela (Colombian, photos of NYC), Gerardo Sandoval (Mexican, photos of Mexico City), Marcelo Auge (Brazilian, photos of São Paulo), Alberto Ferreras (Venezuelan, photos of NYC), Chino Lemus (Mexican, photos of Mexico City), and David Micolta (Colombian, photos of Bogotá).

According to the museum, this exhibit is "a reflection of the ongoing pandemic through the lens of six great national and international photographers." Their work represents the beauty and intimacy of monuments, buildings, streets, parks, and everyday atmospheres. Keep scrolling to get a sneak peek of the exhibit, which is now live and available for all to enjoy.
