  Quote of the Day

Each year, National Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15 to October 15, by honoring the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and South America. 

Today’s quote comes from Cesar Chavez, a leader in the Chicano Movement which sought to obtain farm worker rights for Mexican - American workers in the 60s and 70s. 

He once said: La preservación de la propia cultura no requiere desprecio o falta de respeto por otras culturas.

”Preservation of one's own culture does not require contempt or disrespect for other cultures."
