Yolanda is here to add tension to what is going on, but what is happening is so beautiful because she is an artist who finds herself, an emerging artist, and who finds her place within her family and society. . They were all very careful with how everything was run. Sadly, Yolanda is part of Selena’s tragic story. But the beauty of it all is how his legacy lives on to this day through his music, his art, and even his entire life. Thanks to her, today we can have this conversation and have a show about a Latina, with and written by Latinos. It’s a beautiful thing ”.
