Officially Hispanic

Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 9780739119693
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Delving into questions of group classification and the meaning of identity, Officially Hispanic argues that the Hispanic category, as currently used by the federal government, does not capture the multiplicity of circumstances and identities among Hispanics. The standardized category then may need to be modified in order to serve its public policy purposes. This timely inquiry addresses one of the central questions of modern states: how to integrate, socially and politically, all of its citizens

Hispanic Heritage
Author: Tonya Garcia
Publisher: Tonya Garcia
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 163
Book Description
There are many reasons that attention should be devoted to Hispanic culture and its influence on American society. The most obvious is that Hispanics are the largest ethnic minority in the U.S. The importance of this population was recognized in 1988 by the establishment of National Hispanic American Heritage Month. For this reason, it is essential to learn what it means to be Hispanic in the U.S. This modern-day reference is ideal for educators and students as well as stakeholders who want to learn more about the rich and invaluable influence Hispanics have on America's society. An educational preparation will likely begin by seeking answers to the following questions. What should I know about the Hispanic population in the U.S. - e.g., demographics, schooling, and employment? What is the history of Hispanic habitation in the U.S. - e.g., how does immigration play a part? What were the challenges and accomplishments of Hispanics who earned renown for careers in commercial, scientific, and legal fields? What are good sources of information about such matters? You will find answers to these and similar questions in the following eight chapters and discussion guide. In these times troubled by divisiveness and anger, such cultural broadening is especially important. To this end, many educational programs have been initiated that are intended to create and sustain mutual understanding. This understanding fosters equity, empathy, and belonging. These chapters were prepared to develop a well-informed understanding and appropriate appreciation of Hispanics in America.
