What’s New Around Here?
National Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15-October 15 to give recognition to the Hispanic and Latino history and culture, as well as the many contributions made to United States history and culture by the Hispanic American communities. Starting as a week-long celebration in 1968, it was expanded to a month in 1988. Why such strange dates, instead of a single month? Many Latin American countries celebrate their independence days during this time. September 15th alone is the independence day for Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua.
The United States is home to over 60 million Latinos, nearly 19% of our total population. Hispanic people have been a part of our country from the very beginning, and continue to fuel our economy and enrich our culture as entrepreneurs, scientists, public servants, athletes, artists, entertainers, and much, much more. Our music, food, sports, art, architecture, and very history would be much the poorer without the presence and influence of Hispanic Americans. As the country continues to diversify, it's important for all of us to learn more about the Hispanic American experience.
