Latinos

The real danger, of course, is that this is not an isolated incident. Brokaw is not alone.

Is somebody like PA Secretary of Education Pedro Rivera, “unassimilated”, I asked in our recent #ALDIAHigherEdLEADERS Summit2019, where he was the Keynote Speaker? No. However, Pedro is yet another U.S. Latino now under suspicion of perhaps being yet another “brown grand-baby”—  one who needs to work harder at assimilation, or learn better English, if we were to believe former national TV anchor Tom Brokaw. If we were to trust the half-truth the NBC star’s gaffe has unexpectedly championed.

Why not? Latino youth are among the most neglected, and in need of urgent attention from the centers of higher learning at the college and university level.

In the midst of a government shutdown that has been counterproductive for the president’s popularity, recent poll numbers show an increase in Donald Trump's approval among Hispanic citizens. What does this mean?

A district judge in Texas has ruled that the Affordable Care and Attention Act (ACA) is unconstitutional, raising a complaint that could take several months. Meanwhile, around four million Latinos risk being left unprotected.

For Hispanics in five key states, climate change was a decisive factor when casting their votes during the midterm elections.

In the midst of the crisis that the Latin American country is experiencing, its culture continues to be celebrated internationally, putting women at the forefront of that recognition.

The midterm elections resulted in a deeply diverse Democratic base, among women, Muslims, members of the LGBTQ community and people of color. These are the Latino champions that took part of that wave of change.

A study carried out by the Pew Research Center determined that the stability of Hispanics under President Donald Trump has gone downhill.

A field research has shown that Hispanics are not aware of the true power of their community when it comes to creating a change in the United States.

The largest coalition of Hispanics in the government has raised its voice against Judge Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court, arguing an imminent danger to the Latino community and to the entire country.

Representatives of the Hispanic community nationwide remember the late Senator as "a hero" whose service to the country will never be forgotten.

The government of Donald Trump has tried to maintain appearances with respect to its will to communicate and collaborate with the Hispanic community in the country, but the recent resignation of one of the administration's few Latino officials seems to make clear that there’s no viable communication.
