Remembering loved ones
Joanne Pineda of Monterey Park has made a tradition of celebrating Día de los Muertos with her family. She said she’ll always remember the time when her dad asked her mom to dance to Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon” in the living room.
“Thinking about it now really brings me tears because it just brought them so much joy. It brought them close together,” Pineda said. “For me to be there, to see that, how special it was to them I just think about it all the time.”

For Dia de los Muertos, Araceli Guillén-Tuerpe is remembering her father — Antonino Raúl Guillén Álvarez — who died earlier this year. Her father came from Mexico to the U.S. about 50 years ago and settled in the San Fernando Valley. He instilled in his children the need to get an education, but Guillén-Tuerpe said her father always filled her childhood with music. He played the guitar and violin and sang all the time, especially classic mariachi songs like “Cielito Lindo” by Pedro Infante.
“He was in a retirement music group, so he was playing music until the very end with his group,” said Guillén-Tuerpe.
One of her fondest memories of her father happened during the pandemic. She was celebrating her daughter’s 10th birthday over Zoom, but the distance didn't keep her father from making the day special when he hopped on the call and sang “Las Mañanitas".
Sharing memories of family and friends
"My Father loved the flower, Marigolds. Back in our country, when I was a little girl, my Father always brought home bunches of Marigolds. He then divided them into smaller groups, trimmed them and arranged those flowers into vases, and put them on the altar, prayed under Buddha and ancestors. When we settled in [the] USA, he was very happy to see those flowers again. Marigolds brought him back to Vietnam, I guess. When he was old. He could not drive anymore, he always told me to find and get him these flowers until he passed away, 5 years ago. Now whenever I see the flowers I miss my father very much. I got some, put them in a vase, and put them on the altar, for my dear father hoping and wishing that his soul is still with me, from above [he] would be pleased to see his favorite flowers, Marigolds…" — Anh Suong Nguyen
“My mother had a very unique laugh, I miss it daily.” — Pilar Reynaldo
“My husband was a sweet gentle man who played a mean violin. He left much too soon.” — Liz
“My dear friend Terri Villa-McDowell passed away last week. She was a passionate advocate for justice and was the force behind LA vs. Hate, a multi-agency effort by LA County Human Relations Commission, 211LA and a host of nonprofits, including the Western Justice Center, to raise consciousness about hate crimes, support survivors and build bridges to foster pluralism and democracy. She was also a thought partner, source of inspiration and cheerleader for all of us in the conflict resolution field.” — Elissa Barrett
“Best memory of my mom was taking her to the Mariachi Festival at the Hollywood Bowl the year that Antonio Villaraigosa was elected mayor. He made a surprise appearance at the concert and as he made his way in, he walked in front of our box. My mom instinctively reached out for him and told him in Spanish "Usted es mi gallo". which translates loosely to “you are my rooster” but means more like he was her champion. He was very touched by her comment and kissed her on the cheek. My mom was glowing. Still brings tears to my eyes.” — Claudia Cardenas
“My mother-in-law recently passed away. She loved her garden and would happily wander around caring for the beautiful plants. It was one of her favorite things to do. I will always remember her in the garden.” — Clarissa Meecham
Sheena Kadi said this November will be two years since her chosen mom — Lucille Ruibal Rivera — died. On Kadi’s ofrenda, there are photos of Lucille, souvenirs from their travels together, candles, her favorite bottle of tequila, a pair of sunglasses and a feather from a hat she wore often.
“All these feathers kept falling out of it. So everywhere she went where she wore it, she would leave a trail of feathers behind,” Kadi said.
Honoring your ancestors isn't just about blood family, but also chosen family.
Sheena Kadi says this was her chosen mom’s favorite photo.

Kadi met Lucille on Christmas Eve of 2018 after Kadi’s family had disowned her because she's queer. Kadi’s friend invited her to spend the holiday at their house. Lucille, her friend’s mother, asked Kadi why she was spending the holiday there, and not with her family. When Kadi explained what happened, Lucille immediately hugged her and said, “You are my daughter and if anyone has questions, they can come and talk to me.”
Kadi remembers Lucille as someone who was bold, a healthcare leader, a Chicana artist and a fierce advocate for her community, including the LGBTQ+ community.
“She used to say if you have a seat at the table, be sure to pull up a few more chairs and bring more folks with you,” Kadi said.
She wants Lucille to know that she’s still carrying the lessons she taught her.
“Honoring your ancestors isn’t just about blood family, but also chosen family, I'm going to do everything that I can to continue to honor and remember her," Kadi added.

For Día de los Muertos, Mario Aguilera is remembering his mom, Amanda, who recently died. She came to Los Angeles in the 1980s from El Salvador and was a proud Angelino for more than 40 years.
Aguilera, who grew up in Boyle Heights, remembers his mom being a hard worker, having cleaned houses for more than 20 years. She’d frequently ride the bus to and from work all around the city, and he remembers going on bus rides with her — sometimes for work, sometimes to find things to do around town.
One of my favorite memories is going up Griffith Park area, it was early in the morning, very foresty, a bunch of trees. We turned the corner, and I see deer eating grass and the leaves, and I’m like this is magical.
Aguilera said his mom taught him the importance of exploring, getting out of your comfort zone and discovering new places and communities.
“It’s one of my favorite memories I have of her,” he said.
Remembering loved pets
Mischa Armada is celebrating the life of her 9-year-old Frenchie, Butters, who died Oct. 16. Butters was her best friend, constant companion and dog son who traveled with her after she got him in the Philippines. A memory she has of Butters was when they visited Mexico City in 2022 during Día de los Muertos and dressed him up as a little taco to visit the Zócalo. He was the only dog in costume that day.
Mischa Armada and her nine and a half year old Frenchie spent months in Mexico City in 2022, and celebrated Día de los Muertos at the Zócalo.

“As we were walking along the Zócalo, all we heard was ‘Mira! Hola perrito!’ and people were just taking photos,” Armada said. “He was loving every minute of that.”
Families approached asking if they could take pictures with Butters, or Mantequilla as he was called there. She said he smiled the whole time.
Remembering pets who have passed
“Tiki was the best foster fail that helped us get through the pandemic. We miss him everyday!” — Kathrine
“My dog Hobbes had incredibly selective hearing. Any time I opened up the fridge, grabbed a stick of string cheese and began to slowly open the plastic packaging, I would close the fridge door to see that he had somehow silently appeared out of nowhere, sitting prettily, awaiting his morsel of cheese.” — Marisa Schwartz
“My miniature poodle Audrey looked like a little lamb, did a quirky handstand when she peed, and walked backwards to me after fetching the ball. She snoozed secretly in a nondescript bag in the finest restaurants, and in movies, plays, concerts, museums and trains. She lay on top of me when the dentist gave me a filling or when the doctor gave me a shot. She was my sweetest, funniest, curly best friend. Who will always be a good girl? Audrey.” — Nancy Sullivan
Amy Breyer is celebrating her cat, Dwayne "the cat" Johnson, this Día de los Muertos. She said Dwane was “very much a little person in a fur suit.” She said Dwayne, who died Oct. 17, would greet them with a "meow-moh" that she swears he was trying to imitate the sound of "hello" when he walked into a room.

She said Dwayne would sit on a kitchen chair to keep them company while they ate lunch and stand on her laptop when he decided it was time for Breyer to stop working for the day.
“We feel privileged that we could give him the foundation to become his fully-realized little furry self,” said Bryer in an obit about Dwayne, “even though right now there’s a Dwayne-shaped hole in our hearts.”

I had the privilege of attending the House Museum’s Fire Memorial event in the Palisades last week, and I was so moved by the ingenuity of the team preserving the remaining chimneys from houses burned in the fire, the beauty of the space and the resilience of the community. While last week was filled with somber events, this one was bittersweet but overall so positive, and that’s the energy I hope we can all bring into 2026.

Angie Portillo and Dulce Flores co-founded Ponte Your Moños, an initiative aimed at supporting and uplifting immigrant communities through traditional hair braids.

Topline:
Two SoCal Latinas are using the delicate, intimate art of traditional braids as a form of activism and resistance to the ongoing ICE raids, and support immigrant communities.
What we know: Ponte Your Moños came about last summer after Dulce Flores and Angie Portillo wanted to find a way to help immigrant communities affected by ICE raids and to also create a space of healing and solidarity.
What does hair have to do with politics? Indigenous communities wore braids as part of daily life and self-expression. But they also wore them during times of conquest and in resistance to modernization. Today, the hairstyle symbolizes a new form of resistance for many.
Read on … for how the hairstyle has become a new act of resistance.
You can’t miss them. The striking braids are woven with delicate lace and vibrant ribbon. It’s the statement and an Indigenous art that two SoCal Latinas are using as a form of open activism against the ongoing ICE raids and to support undocumented communities.
Dulce Flores and Angie Portillo, co-founders of Ponte Your Moños, have braided thousands of trenzas, intricate braids that have roots dating back thousands of years before the Spanish colonization of Mexico.
Today, amid the ongoing ICE raids, the two say it’s their message:
“The braids signified a way for us to just show that we're here,” Flores said. “We’re here, and we're not going anywhere.”

Since June, they’ve organized over two dozen pop-up events, braiding the hair of over 2,000 people.
Proceeds have gone towards people who have been detained by ICE and to support immigrant families afraid to go out for necessities like work or groceries.
“It made me feel anger. At the same time, we needed to figure out a way to really come together and do something to fundraise and give back to the community,” Flores said. “That's how Ponte Your Moños really came together – to braid because it was an act of culture and care and resistance, and also a space where Latinos and other individuals can come together.”
Ponte Your Moños, translates to “Put on your bows.” The name of the initiative was inspired by a Mexican expression, “No te pongas tus moños,” or “Don’t put on your bows,” which means don’t be demanding or intense. But Flores and Portillo flipped its meaning and now say, do that and more.
“Fashion is political,” Portillo said. “You don't like us, so I'm going to show you in your face that I don't care. I'm very proud of what I'm wearing, of what I am … y soporta porque (and deal with it because) we are not going anywhere.”
Indigenous communities wore trenzas as part of daily life, for celebrations and self-expression.
“(Braiding) carries that history, the identity, the ancestry,” Flores added. “Braids here for Latinos have become a visible way of expression of their pride and their resistance.”
Alexandro José Gradilla, associate professor of Chicana and Chicano studies at Cal State Fullerton, said the history of the trenzas interwoven with the ribbon mark survivance – a type of survival, resistance and existence mixed together.
“In many ways, the style survived despite multiple historical attempts to wipe it out,” Gradilla said. “The everyday existence of most Latina, Latino people, especially immigrants, is invisibility. These trenzas are definitely about being seen, but more importantly, being seen on one's own terms.”
Flores said today, many Latina women are wearing them as a symbol of cultural appreciation, pride and to make a statement.
What role does hair play in politics?
The two had taken a page from history during the Chicano Movement when Zoot Suits were used as a form of resistance.
Gradilla said visibility makes braiding an important political tool, a form of activism that calls attention to oneself.
“It is about understanding the mainstream gaze of how we are looked at, either we're sexualized or we're looked at as criminals. When one self-fashions or self-creates, you're saying, ‘No, this is who I am. You do not get to impose or project your stereotype or your image of me onto me,’” Gradilla said.
The ribbon braids were worn by Indigenous women during times of conquest and also by the Adelitas, the female soldiers of the Mexican revolution, he added.
“Now you're seeing a modern twist on it in many ways. I would call it a form of Rasquache politics,” Gradilla said. Rasquachismo is a resourceful form of political expression to reclaim narratives and stereotypes. “You can still be wearing your hoodie, your jeans, but you have these trenzas, and that's what makes it Rasquache, you're mixing two cultural forms into one.”
Flores said Ponte Your Moños is about solidarity and storytelling.
“Beyond this project, Ponte Your Moños really creates a space of healing and education and cultural expression, especially (with) what's going on,” Flores said. “It's a way for us to really connect back with our culture, but at the same time, show that resistance and also give back to the community that is being affected.”
The initiative’s next pop-up is part of the Galentine’s Day Pop-Up Estez Beauty Bar and Spa at 2615 W. 190th St in Redondo Beach from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The 2026 Golden Globes were live Sunday night, hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser for the second year in a row.
The context: From One Battle After Another to The Pitt, this list will be updated with the winners. Spoilers ahead!
Read on... for who won, and who lost, this year.
Updated January 12, 2026 at 00:20 AM ET
Timothée Chalamet, Teyana Taylor and Noah Wyle each took home acting awards at the Golden Globes on Sunday night.
Comedian Nikki Glaser hosted the show for the second year in a row, joking in her opening monologue that the Golden Globe for best editing should go to the Justice Department, seemingly referencing the Epstein files — and that the award for most editing ought to go to CBS News, calling it "America's newest place to see B.S. news." (New CBS News editor in chief, Bari Weiss, recently drew criticism for pulling a segment about a detention center in El Salvador from 60 Minutes.)
Teyana Taylor's prize was for best supporting actress in a motion picture, one of four awards for One Battle After Another, which also won the evening's prize for best musical or comedy motion picture. Filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson took home awards for screenwriting and directing.
Wyle's award was for The Pitt, which also won the prize for best TV drama.
Chalamet's win was the only prize for Marty Supreme, which was nominated as a comedy. Hamnet won the award for best drama film; Jessie Buckley took home the award for best actress in a drama for the same movie.
The Netflix series Adolescence took home trophies for best limited or anthology series, along with prizes for actors Stephen Graham, Owen Cooper and Erin Doherty. The Studio took home the prize for best TV musical or comedy, with Seth Rogen winning the top prize for actors in that group.
