Fifty years ago, “Latino” was rarely used to describe people of Latin American descent. The term was not adopted by the census until 2000. How and why did Latinidad become a recognizable racial identity? How are Latinos perceived racially in American society and how did we get there? How have Latinos perceived and negotiated their own racial identity?
Join us on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, at 6 PM Central for a discussion on these questions and more with Dr. Laura E. Gómez, an expert on Latinos and the law and anti-Latino racism.
