Show Notes

The Center for Racial Healing celebrates Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month beyond and especially during the special season of recognition September 15th through October 15th. This month we recognize and celebrate those tracing their roots to Spain, Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Spanish-speaking nations of the Caribbean for all their contributions that are integral to American identity. 

 

As of July 1st 2021, the Hispanic/Latinx population numbered 62.6 million, which equates to 18.9% of the total population. Those with Hispanic origins make up the nation’s largest racial or ethnic minority group. 

 

Still, things are not always Black, White, and Brown but, that’s why today we’ve invited special guest Leah Hernandez, CEO and Founder, to this brave space, tune in!
