This issue in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month is filled with many essays reflecting great individual commitment to sharing our history with each other. I surely thank all those who continue to send information.
Along with current social issues, Somos Primos has worked hard to provide examples of outstanding Latino Americans actively involved in promoting correct history. As we educate ourselves about our personal history, we are in a better position to protect it.
May we be blessed in our efforts to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month.
