What's in a Name?
A Community by Many Other Name(s)
Thursday, October 6, 12 pm to 1 pm| Zoom Registration
In this webinar, members of the Latino Leadership Network will discuss how the community has been historically known and referred to in the United States. While there is no consensus within the community of what our name should be, historical and current debates about nomenclature reveal the complexities of immigration, acculturation, and identity for this diverse group. We will engage in conversation about names such as Latino/a/e/x, Hispanic, Boricua, Chicano/a/e/x, and others, to learn about the community's heritage, roots, and markers of identity.
