Sandieguinos are very fortunate to benefit from the rich cultural heritage of our Mexican neighbors – on either sides of the border – as well as the numerous Latino, Latinx, and Hispanic cultures of people and their US-born descendants here from many parts of the world. In 2020 the country’s Hispanic/Latino/Latinx/Chicano/Tejano/Isleños/Boricua/Afro-Latino plus population was estimated at 62 million people. Public Broadcasting will offer opportunities to learn so much – culturally, politically, and more – about our neighbors, both next door and around the world, including films from Latino Public Broadcasting:
Look for opportunities to visit our many wonderful Latinx-owned businesses and venues.
In addition to PBS’s offerings from September 15 – October 15, St John’s Episcopal Church in Chula Vista will hold a celebration on Tuesday, September 24 at 6pm. There will be music, dancing and a potluck dinner. For more information https://edsd.org/event/la-misa-in-english-celebrating-hispanic-heritage-month/
